    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I know someone posted this jacket earlier. I am curious if anyone received measurements from the seller? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vanson-Leathers-Size-38-Mens-Brown-Leather-Bomber-Jacket-Medium-Vintage-See-/203233147386?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Might not hurt to run the translation past Shawn or another native speaker/reader. Google translate is often a little off the mark. The example given to us in German class revolved around the famous moving truck Ludwig Beethoven.

    I would wait for Mr. Proper to comment. I had mentioned an Irvin custom with 5*, and he mentioned they don't have a correct shearling for that yet. Maybe that has changed in the internet.

    Goldtop RAF Flying Jacket opinions

    My experience was a bit different. Maybe I didn't know what to reasonably expect at the time. I ordered one in 2016 or so. The leather was so thin it was stretching and cracking the topcoat as I was trying it on, particularly in the shoulders of the main body and behind the elbows. I ended up...

    Sorry, I forgot to quote the reply with the white cafe racer above. Something I never really thought about this before seeing this jacket. Do motorcycle windscreens do a good job of keeping bugs from hitting jackets?

    This is the jacket I was remembering. https://www.facebook.com/272550216953905/posts/600902074118716/ There are pictures of at least one more cross zip design on the 5* facebook page.

    I think Jonesy86 had 5* make him a cross zip. Same idea as the one just posted, but a much better fit.

    I saw this on eBay, and I got a bit curious. I haven't noticed any A2 jackets by Schott before. Most of what I see mentioned here are cross zips or motorcycle jackets. Any thoughts you would care to share about the jacket, please...

    EBay arghh!! ##$&&

    Would appreciate input from people with real-world experience please. I am in the US. Purchased a hat from a seller in England on eBay. Hat is smaller than stated in the auction, and seller confirmed the larger, incorrect size in an eBay message. Seller has agreed to the return. I will have to...
