    Lost Worlds jackets.

    I was looking at a LW Ryder, anyone have one in the flesh? The russet brown looks a little flat and boring in pictures, it's why I've zeroed in on an Aero Halfbelt, they look much nicer. How does the LW Ryder compare to an Aero halfbelt? I'm guessing the Ryder is more of a 1950's halfbelt cut.

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    That's like saying "isn't any North Face down jacket infinitely lighter and warmer than a horsehide leather"? :) Watch folks throw all reason and practicality out the window with the hobby. Accuracy isn't important as in competing with quartz accuracy, because they'll lose every time, even a...

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    It's a GF tourbillon, gotta be at least 350K+. Thankfully I never went that far down the rabbit hole lol... Gorgeous watch though. If I win the power ball I'll pick one up.

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    There are certain watches I've bought, sold, bought, sold four or five times, it's nuts. I had to stop posting on a watch message board because of the enabling, I literally had a problem, I started with $150 watches, moved to a $500 watch and couldn't believe I spent that much, two years later...

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    Of course you post here, small world with this interest I guess lol... I still feel like I stole this from you, I really didn't think I would win the auction with what I bid, it worked well, it's a great jacket. If you come across an Aero HB in Cordovan around the same size ping me here or on...

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    I went through this with watches and promised myself never again. I literally bought and flipped 40+ watches in a two year span (I mostly bought used so I didn't lose much on the flips). I promised myself I wouldn't do this with leather jackets. Just find two (or maybe three, four tops ;) )...

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    Thanks for the replies, I'm keeping the jacket, I think the fit is solid and hopefully it will break in by next fall. I'm going to purchase an Aero 1930's slim fit halfbelt in cordovan FQHH in the summer anyway, that's the jacket I've really coveted. I would order it sooner but I couldn't bear...

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    I love the jacket and I understand the issue with Aero, trust me I weighed it all I'm a maximizer with this stuff. At the end of the day someone who made my jacket is a blue collar worker making a buck so I have no issues supporting AL/SB. I'll buy an Aero half-belt next, it's all good I'll...

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    I don't want to get into the politics of it, I'm all for a free market and having more competitors in a market this small and incestuous is a good thing and should only equate to increased quality, customer service, and falling prices. In fact Aero has really stepped up their game with quick...

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    Thanks, they're Wolverine 1000 mile boots, again got a great deal on these from a seller from Canada. Very nice boots, they can pull double duty as dressy with Khaki's on casual Friday. My only issue with them is the leather while very nice marks up really easily. As for the swiped Highwayman...

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    Looking closer the jacket is a good inch to inch and half below my belt line so the length is good to go, any "shortness" of the jacket can probably be attributed to the "shortness" of the wearer, I'm 5'9 so no matter what it's just not going to look like it would on a guy 6'3. Now I just have...

    New AL Roadster in FQHH Havana Brown

    I've been looking at Aero/AL/Lost Worlds etc... jackets but I wasn't willing to pay $1,000 for a leather jacket. But looking online I came across this Alexander Leather's Roadster FQHH in Havana Brown. It's new without any break-in or creasing once delivered to me. The only issue was it was...
