    New jacket! The Real McCoy A-1

    Part of that blousing effect though, is that this was likely made out of capeskin, which certainly drapes easily and enhances the blousing effect.

    New! ELMC Jacket Highway Star®️ Horsehide

    $1750 to import this jacket in the USA so I'm hesitant to be the guinea pig on this one. I'd love to find a used one though and with my hips and rear end, the design and flare at the bottom will actually sit well on me.

    New jacket! The Real McCoy A-1

    Ouch, that's a rough hit. That's the problem with buying some of these $2-3k jackets; the resale value is not even close to the price you pay to get it new. GLWTS

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    That's exactly how it works. You pay what's listed on the site and it doesn't matter where you live.

    Sizing questions Aero Leather A-1 jacket

    IMO sizing up is a terrible recommendation. That jacket is going to be wearing you. I would just ask Aero for specs to make sure you know what you would be getting with each size. I'm a 42 is nearly everything. 5'10", 190 lbs, 42" chest, 36" waist and here is how a size 40 Aero A-1 fits on...

    Welcome, @bobbymilwaukee! I'm a big SOP fan here. The Y'2s and new Double Helix jackets are looking pretty great. Hope to see more of them in the wild on here.

    Thurston Italian Vicenza Horsehide Full Grain Veg.-Tanned Horsehide for Aero Jackets

    The cinch cuffs are a phenomenal change. When I am ready to order my HH, will definitely be adding those to mine.

    Full custom Field Leathers Idaho review

    Love Amsterdam, although my wife doesn't like to travel to Holland very much. She thinks it's boring lol. She lived in Nijmegen, Amersfoort, and Utrecht for 10 years or so.

    Full custom Field Leathers Idaho review

    Marc, the jacket is brilliant looking! Makes me question whether I should just get same style from Greg as well as I had plans to order the Wingman from Bill Kelso and get something different from Greg. I am just waiting for him to roll out his new designs before I decide which direction to go...

    US NAVY 1940s N-1 DECK JACKET - BRONSON Mfg. Co.

    The sleeves are definitely too short, but the body length looks fine. You must have really long arms. I like Bronson's stuff though. I am considering ordering one myself or the tank jacket.

    Quality-wise, nothing. There is a reason they have been around since 1934.

    Shame it doesn't fit you, but I am just about your same size so this doesn't seem like it would be worth my effort either. GLWTS.

    Lightweight leather

    Good to know, I had assumed this was more a mid to heavy leather based on it's looks. I really do like that vein-y type of look with all those creases and cracks on it.

    Fine Creek Leather

    I think it looks like it fits in the chest, but it's up to you to determine whether it's comfortable or not. I'm not surprised that the armholes would be high and tight on a japanese brand. If you're going to lose 10 lbs and it's not constricting your chest and arm movements then keep it if you...

    Lightweight leather

    Welcome! Apart from the suggestions so far, I would also add Aero's Badalassi and Vicenza leathers. They lean more midweight with the Badalassi lighter, but certainly both very easy wearing with very nice character in my opinion. I live in the tropics, I should know. Also, any capeskin or...
