Thank you for the links Marc, very much appreciated - I'll look into purchasing those hangers. Very good to know. Hope you're enjoying the day.

I have to mention though, they work great for about half of my jackets but for some jackets the weight distribution isn't ideal. It all depends on the shoulder slope of the jacket. I fixed it by hanging the leather jacket over a cloth jacket. In the end I think pool noodles are the best option but unfortunately I do not have enough space for those. Or maybe I have too many jackets lol.

That was the reason why I no longer use the pool noodles. Now I have very wide (50 cm) normal hangers and that works well. My shearling all lie flat.

Why did aero increase their price significantly? werenlooking at 326 usd increase
Because they can?
Apparently the market does. Maybe they can no longer keep up with the work and that's how it's regulated, or maybe everything has simply become more expensive to produce? Who knows, only Aero will be able to answer that.

Anyone know where I can get a buckle like those used on old buco jackets? Doesn’t have to be original.

What’s up with double helix sleeve length on their sz 36, are they making that size exclusively for guys with t-rex arms?

Came across this today. Label on left pocket says Schott, as does print on the buttons. The pocket label apparently suggests the jacket is from '83-84, but I don't know the model. Kind of looks like a 184 without the snap on. Anyone here got a clue?

Hi everyone, hope you've all got a terrific weekend planned. This is for the RMC aficionados - does anyone know the reference of this HD collaboration?

I saw one advertised in the Classifieds a while back being described as quite rare and initially only available in Japan - it was noted then as a Cycle Champ repro. If anyone can provide insight I'd appreciate it. I think the leather looks quite nice and the detachable mouton collar is a nice touch.

Looking forward to your thoughts, particularly on quality and fit - it looks fairly short, which I'm good with. Thank you in advance, speak soon.

Chris

Spotted this in a random video of myself. What causes the armpit bunching on this type 2? Just lack of an action back? Pattern? Sizing?

Anyone have an example of a black jacket with blue/navy stitching? It’s not quite “contrast” stitching… but curious to see how it looks. Thanks.

Not an outerwear question, but I assume the leather principles still apply. I have a single Corcoran boot that keeps having this cloudiness appear on the surface. I assumed it was mold and have tried treating with baking soda and vinegar, but it still keeps appearing after wipe-downs. Any ideas?

Marc and Panda already answered. If it’s spew there is a product called… wait for it…Spew Remover (by Leather Masters) that has been great for me.
