Rain or shine I’ve been wearing just one (of 3 I own) for this whole winter!
My other winter jacket was sent to a jacket maker to have a mouton collar made - sent it in Nov and hopefully get it done this month at last.
I’ve been off this forum and stopped browsing classified for 4 weeks as...
The jacket fits not bad - but I’d want sleeves to be a tad longer as after getting creases /rolls in the arms the sleeves will look shorter than they are now in the fit pic.
I also wondered if the hem would flange less (or taper more) with side adjusters fastened more? Perhaps the style of this...
I’m so glad I bought it - 80 quid off eBay and it’s so stiff like never worn by the pilot before. When buttoned up all the way to the neck it blocks all wind chill. At last I won’t need to wear a bulky scarf!
So now I’m 3 months older and hopefully wiser than when I first posted this thread - and I would reframe my thinking from ‘dream jacket’ to ‘bonding with a jacket’
I allow myself 3 jackets only. And 1 of them which is a Vanson Enfield HH has been with a jacket maker for making a mouton collar...
I saw this Lost Worlds jacket advertised on eBay - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/116403264536?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=SRv92_LPRwK&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=FdECUgLpTcK&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
But it looks like a Langlitz Columbia as opposed to LW??
For those of you who...
Well I just found out there is such a thread whereby people post their jackets collection ;)
I have 3 leather jackets (not counting wool jackets and coats for work) - and I think this is luxury and heavenly happiness for me:
1) aero King of The Road natural CXL which fits me extremely well...
I think given the high prices of Buco jackets that were sold on this forum lately, the asked price for this LW jacket is not unreasonable in anyway.
I would give it a pass even I once really wanted a 5oz LW jacket - it’s beyond my affordability at this price.
I recently got an old Vanson in...
As a young man I was once a massive fan of Matrix movie and bought a HH Gestapo full length coat on eBay from a collector in Germany.
Problem is I couldn’t wear it to work, and I couldn’t wear it to supermarket without looking like an idiot.
So I resorted to having some midnight walks in the...
Lovely jacket! In addition to pit to pit measurement, could you post some fit pics, and indicate your height and weight?
The shoulders width looks like size 40 to me. Also the sleeves length looks like 24.5 or so from the measurement pic? Did you order this with slightly shortened sleeves...
Haha the painting!!
@Peacoat would you mind either close this thread or delete it. Don’t want to attract unwanted negative attention to this great forum.
Hi guys
I posted this question as I was just curious purely about his jacket :).
I don’t want us to attract unwanted /negative attention to the forum if this discussion goes to a different unintended direction.
So I’d request a bartender to close or delete this thread. On Reddit people can...
Curious if anyone recognize the make and model of this jacket Elon Musk wore:

Haha we are not allowed to wear shoes indoor so I kicked off my Birks for a more authentic look shall we say!
I hate crocs though never worn them never will
Guys I bought this RAF greatcoat on eBay for a steal of £75. Previous owner changed the buttons for civilian wear and I actually like them. Its condition surprised me as feels almost new and the wool is quite stiff. I think this one fits quite well over a size 40R suit jacket!!
No more cold...
Aero King of The Road - natural CXL HH; Barbour waxed cotton hat
A surprisingly mild December day in London - had to carry a massive Venum fight backpack with warm coats for family in case temp drops after sunset (it didn’t so I got to wear the aero jacket all day - wow some serious breaking in...
