    WTB Ralph Lauren "Rugby" Black Velvet Jacket Sz: XL

    A very long shot, but worth a try. I'm looking for a silk trimmed velvet jacket as shown in the web images (this one was sold in the USA). It's an 1880s style - as worn by Robert Louis Stevenson, Oscar Wilde, WAS Benson et al.). I have another version of one already in an XL (without the ticket...

    Surgeon’s Jacket (Tweed) by Nigel Cabourn

    Resurrecting a very old thread, but single-/bloody-minded persistence has paid off and a beautiful example of this jacket in the largest size has turned up. The brown tweed Akinson's jacket is my favourite pattern and weight, but the size 3 (equivalent to a 40"-42") has always been very snug...

    It was filmed at Norney Grange (designed 1897-8 by CFA Voysey for Reverend Grane). We used to rent one of the gate lodges for a couple of years.

    Real McCoys Oklahoma

    That looks great, far better than the Menlo. Deerskin is practically my favourite hide now.

    Attire during lockdown

    I wear my Old Town wardrobe that I'd normally use for work (cotton twill overhead shirts and twill, corduroy, or moleskin trousers; jumpers or sleeveless tank tops). Practical and comfortable.

    New jacket! The Real McCoy A-1

    That’s true. It’s certainly a softer, more compliant hide.

    New jacket! The Real McCoy A-1

    I’d suggest that you take it out of the classifieds, keep it and have the comparatively cheap remedial fix to shorten the sleeves. I have slightly shorter arms and I have to do this often with Japanese jackets (the makers e.g. FW and RM equate a larger size 42/44 with tall/long armed when...

    Tradeoffs - Himel Bros vs. Freewheelers?

    Here is my Freewheelers Brakeman in Sleeper Brown Shinki horsehide. Fading well, I think.

    Tradeoffs - Himel Bros vs. Freewheelers?

    This is the Freewheelers Jet Black Shinki deerskin, which is one of the best hides that I have owned. Great depth of colour and a subtle fade with wear.

    WTS/Trade Vintage Real McCoy Type D-1 Jacket

    The port of Dover is a very large, static lorry park where the bulk of our food, meds, and essential supplies enter the U.K. (see also Farage Garage).

    Can anybody confirm whether this Scovill zipper (on a Spiewak Excalibur civilian ‘N-1’ deck jacket) is from the 1940s or 1950s please? Thank you.
