    Too Old for a Short Leather Jacket?

    I think it was in the 80s and 90s but high-street fashions tend towards the skinny look nowadays...

    Show off the sports coats.

    You mentioned that you didn't quite know where the inspiration for those lapels came from-how did you specify them? Or is it a standard shape that Bookster offer? Looks like good quality. Very thick too

    What are your vintage wardrobe essentials?

    So I've been trying to 'streamline' my wardrobe, albeit unsuccessfully. So, let's assume you managed to get rid of the clutter in your wardrobe: What would remain? What are your essentials?

    50s german Leather Jackets in UK eBay

    They are everywhere. :D Those jackets are so over the top but it's interesting how it's so exclusively a German design. More people should model the vintage stuff they have for sale, it makes such a difference.

    Fishermen's sweaters site

    I actually just realised that they didn't make the waistband as wide as I asked, which explains why it doesn't look quite how I wanted it to. I wanted the short-(but not too short) vintage look with the wide waistband, but the way it's turned out I think it might look just a bit frumpy on me...

    Vintage-Cut Fair Isle Sweater Vests

    Thanks Rudie and FFF, ha! I was half telling myself Thank the Gods I can't get them, I can't splurge! But thanks for proving me wrong. ;) I am in the market for a nice fairisle. Hoping to get a nice deal like yours flat top! Either that, or it's a quest for 'a holy grail' one to invest in.

    Dinerman that coat would be perfect for a camping prank... Emerge from the forest in that coat and a scary mask and terrorise people. :D Howardeye-Cool. Real workwear!

    Fishermen's sweaters site

    Another satisfied customer here, I also went for charcoal nepp, but I opted for a gansey (not as chunky) similar to Rudie's specs, double cuffs, long waistband. I have also been pleasantly surprised by the 'small town' friendliness and service: I first received a gansey which had no waistband.I...

    A Life in Leather: profile of Aero founder Ken Calder

    It's to their credit that they do not flaunt their 'celeb appeal'. But is it really a good thing that Daniel Craig has to send his jacket back for repairs? :D

    Show us their suits

    I think that people are saying that by today's standards they look sharp, plus they have the natural rumpled look which is way better than anything pre-distressed or pre-creased. ;)

    Thrift Store Runway

    I think you're jumping the gun there, most of the winner's outfits are in good taste, and the November judge Antonio Centeno talks about vintage fashion and mentions houndtoothkid's blog on one of his youtube videos. :)

    Should I cut it or should I sell it (Not an Aero thread)

    Vanson 25" body length-too short?

    Usually the rule is that it should cover your belt... Now this also depends on how high the waist of your trousers is, I think 26 inches is a safe length, 25 is for people who mostly wear high waisted trousers.
