Best looking Highwayman I have seen.
I was unaware of the option to reduce waist size instead of just sizing down. I think it makes the jacket look comfortable in the upper body and close fitting without being overbearing, at least from the photos.
zebedee,
This is also a concern. I am not tall by any means. Conventional wisdom says stay away from both long trench coats and double breasted coats or sport jackets. Thanks for reminding me.
Now maybe that picture has hit on something that makes me hesitate to get the 650. It is double breasted and should be worn buttoned to look its best. I never wore a double breasted before and worry it might be a pain to constantly button and unbutton.
So many decisions. I should just buy...
You are right, I really love that look of the 650. The Dr. Who jacket was actually single breasted, wasn't it? That always looked very plain to me. I think the Doc's was a thin, floppy fashion leather too. Never a Who fan anyway, so I wasn't impressed by those.
That sounds REAL interesting! The odds would be astronomical of running into someone with the same jacket and yet at the same time, it doesn't sound like an outrageous color.
This is interesting as I don't think the 650 looks like a generic anything. The design seems unique and really sharp, especially compared to most peacoats. Maybe it is the leather that does it.
I came to choose between these two jackets as I wanted something longer. I already have a...
Yes, that does help. Thank you. I actually asked the Aero folks if they could copy the jacket in FQHH but they said they don't make copies. Probably an ethical or legal issue.
I am having trouble deciding between the Aero long half belt and the Schott 650. I want to go with a longer jacket and these are the two options I like.
The schott 650 looks incredible to me but I have not seen much enthusiasm for it here. If anyone has this jacket, could they give me some...
I did search the forum posts but didn't really see anything that answered my question.
From a user perspective, what ios the difference between ther Aero FQHH and the Chromexcel? Do they feel different? Do they break in the same?
Thanks
We have the "Common Law" but it may refer to something different than what you have there. In the US, as far as i was always told, the common law refrs to the court interpretations of the statutes.
I have seen the threads showing the two types of horsehide together and I don't see all that much difference in the look in the long run. Aero vintage leather jackets seem to age like regular FQHH only they have a head start.
So, for those of you who have both, what are the differences, or...
Does anyone have Vanson's Luftwaffe Great Coat? I would like to hear any thoughts you might have on it especially the quality of the Firenze medium weight leather vs the heavy cowhide.
Can anyone identify the jacket in this picture? It is the one in the middle that appears blue-grey --to my colorblind eyes--with the fur collar.
