Then send it back, don't let it get worst, this is currently and easy quick fix, if you let it get worst and reach the rest of the sleeve it then becomes a larger job where you have to unstitch the lining etc.

Funilly enough my Schott 644 suffered from exactly the same problem! Either send it back for repair or if not convenient do it yourself. Get it done one way or another or it is going to get worst, if the stitch line looses tension up the entire sleeve it will be much more complicated to fix. I...

To me this looks like a new jacket definitely not used. These marks look normal for a natural leather of this type... IMO you are not entitled to a free return, if you want to return it pay for shipping and do things the right way.

That black one is like an 80s bad dream! The Vs + pointy tail + side elastic bands is quite a design mix... To quote a great man: "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."

Sure, but i think Montcler is more interrested in selling overpriced crap to people who pay attention to designer labels than selling functionnal pieces of clothing... Good luck with your search.

Maybe it's very rare because it doesn't make any sens! Down likes to be kept in a lightweight fabric so that it can remain light and fluffy and trap warm air, if you encase it in leather you basically kill all it's loft and ability to do it's job. You also want down to breath as it is very...

Not in my experience. I have never handled a ww2 duffle coat, but i have handled multiple peacoats in both wool types and a few Crombies in Melton wool and i would never put Melton above Kersey for anything. I don't think the comparison to Loden is relevent, Loden is boiled wool, boiled wool is...

Short answer, yes. Melton is airy and fuzzy and lets the wind through, Kersey is dense and smooth, much better against rain (although not waterprooof) and wind. To me Melton is comparable to modern polyester fleece, its warm, but if its windy you will be cold. Kersey is much more closed, almost...

The original run of Vanson Cycle Kings where made with X150 leather (made in USA), it looks like the current version is made from imported leather... Here is what i know about X150 leather from Vanson: "Just in case you're wondering and since you asked me in the past the X150 is a complicated...

That Crowtree leathers is super cool!

My favourite LW to use on the bike is a dual hide, moose body and horse arms. (moose is very much like deer) I like it because you get the comfort and pliability of moose in the body, but the waterproofness and protection of horse in the arms. To me it is the best of both world, and i would...

Could you please add an arrow or somethign to point out what the "problem" is? Cause i am not seeing what you are complaining about, and i don't see how your dad would have seen it either.

You need to find better things to get upset at, and thank your dad for a very nice present.

I think it's a great fit, i also think you have slightly denatured the jacket by making it that tight at the waist and making the side straps purely decorative. It gives it a LL Dominator vibe from the back. I like the traditional look of the crumpled sides on a Campus style jacket... It's still...

That's so fake, are you even a real electrician?
