    Hi there, Could you provide a fit pic? I'm more interested how it fits on your shoulders / chest / torso. Thanks in advance

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    Personally I find the Japanese jackets cuts are too much altered for their demographic (slim and long) not very true to the originals. Not working for me. Also their leathers look a bit flimsy and have some artificial look I don't like. Also the communication barrier, distance, logistics makes...

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    Aero is one of the few niche manufacturers of high quality outwear, that offers comprehensive customization services and is nice to deal with. They deserve to continue existing and be supported. However in this unstable economic context, inflation, stagnating wages I find harder to afford...

    Rare Lost Worlds J-24

    By the description you might be from UK? or perhaps some northern country? Yes there is an inflation of cross zip moto inspired jackets. But most you find in general stores/fast fashion look cheap and lack quality. Even the boutique ones. I guess no one buys heavy leather like this because they...

    Rare Lost Worlds J-24

    Interesting jacket in itself (historically). But perhaps it's a matter of taste. I have the regular version that I prefer being more wearable for me (in more situations/contexts). Perhaps that's the other one sold so quickly in the other thread. I'd buy also this version otherwise. Just my 2 cents.

    FOR SALE: Lost Worlds J23 size 42R

    Congrats for the sale, v nice jacket. No wonder it sold fast as it had all the desirable attributes: scarce, interesting model, fair price relative to the high quality, popular size, non custom, no odd alterations, no breaking in/heavy wear or other aging treatments.

    Interest check Aero Windward 38

    Ofc I'd have been interested if it was a 40. Refreshing to see something different through the inflation of boring half belts.

    Real McCoys BUCO J24 2018 Limited size 42 but more like a slim 40

    Along with the aforementioned by @MrX94 another reason is the fit. Most people might find more suitable the original fit. This Asian cut with longer body and slimmer top to bottom/less taper might not work for Europeans/Americans. And for this price I'd like something as close to the og as...

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    I can attest based on my USN pea coats that even the 60s(mid, late) ones feel def larger than the WW2 ones.

    FS: Lost Worlds Grizzly Sz. 40

    Hello everyone, I am the buyer, terrific jacket, the usual LW quality second to none. I'd like to thank @newtojackets. Polite, correct, reactive communication, spot-on information. A+ Having dealt throughout the years both here(dozens) and on eBay (hundreds) I can def say this is one of those...

    Bronson N-1 Deck Jacket sheds tons of fibres from pile liner!

    I wouldn't bother with the knock-offs from Chinese and other country likes. I bet there is no precise traceability of fabric batches, suppliers standards and such. It's whoever can quickly and cheaply produce something resembling to what they need. I've come across their listings on ebay. Things...

    Explaining the Aero Fit.

    I'm speaking for me personally. 1. Given the jacket price / wait time / physical distance I prefer that the jacket fits pretty well. By this I mean not looking 1-2 sizes off, like I'm wearing an older brother's clothes. Ok some creases, in shoulders, here and there are unavoidable given the...

    Buyer Beware. Use Common Sense.

    Thanks for the heads-up! It's important to bring awareness on such topics. @scotrace , @Edward To mitigate accounts hacking (frequently due to weak passwords) multi-factor authentication could help. Also applying the latest security updates is a good practice.

    The guy asks what is the brand of the jacket. Then "thanks for your answer, cordially" Mais oui mes amis anglophones. Pourquoi ne pas apprendre le Francais ? ;) :p

    Military style pants

    Cool trousers! Are they solid stitched/thick canvas? These trousers evoke for me the American ninja fighting against the bad ninjas in remote S-E Asia islands: , of course Rambo and Delta Force - the Colombian connection. Aaah the 80/90s and the great action movies. They don't make them as...

    winter jacket choice

    It depends for which kind of activity. For hiking / effort the best are the high-tech garments made out of composite materials(Gore-tex,...). Otherwise if it's walking and everyday thing this is what's the most efficient for me: - until -10 Celsius I wear a A-2/G-1 Jacket(medium weight hide); I...

    Is Denim the new Leather - Collectable jackets?

    The denim collecting trend gained momentum the last 10-15 years. Even Levi's has Authorized vintage collection - actually worn Levi denim that is recuperated, cleaned/mended and sold again. The prices are way higher than market average prices. I've seen lately that there is a trend with the...
