    WTB: a single vintage Fedora, 7 3/8, black or grey, Pre WWII.

    Consignment shop Royal Canadian Mounted Police Stetson, old...

    Saw this today, thought I would share. This is vintage, pre WWII? I can say this, it was the heaviest and stiffest hat I have ever handled. The quality of the leather hat band was a thing of beauty. A side note, the shot of the underside, I don't believe those are cracks, just wrinkles...

    I need this. Probably a size large but I don't know until I see measurements, I wear a 42 for reference.

    One more, always one more...

    So... I enjoy my Aero J-100, as my clean streamlined easy to wear leather jacket. But my thoughts are always returning to something a little more significant. That brings me to my dilemma. It is not possible for me to own many jackets without upsetting a life balance. I am trying...

    Is there anyone who would like to help me buy a flashlight on Taobao?

    I have a flashlight I am interested in purchasing. My Chinese only goes as far as Google translate. Talking with the seller was not easy. Why a flashlight? Well, it was made in the USA, and sent to China as a market special, so not sold or available here. If I want one, I have to buy it...

    Aero Thunderbay fit question

    All, I am considering a pre-owned Aero Thunderbay. It is tagged a size 40, but the outer measurements suggest a 44. Assuming others here own a similar jacket, I would like to know if the increased external tape measurements are an effect of the shearling lining? Meaning I assume the...
