    NWT Aero Ridley in tobacco Badalassi - 42

    nooooo. I can't. Didn't I buy the J100 from you too. I need to stop LOL.

    NWT Aero Ridley in tobacco Badalassi - 42

    holy moly this is fire. If Greg doesn't hurry up and get some brown Pony, you might be hearing from me on this one. I pretty much spec'd out the same jacket with him. The action back is probably killing the "slim" on this. I have a Ridley in black/brown vic with the same exact measurements...

    Iron heart Flannels and 18oz denim shirt XL - XXXL

    Buy with confidence from this guy. I picked up a couple pieces. They are like mint condition. I wish his other stuff was my size and I would have bought it all. That N1 someone grabbed was a total steal.

    Washing a jacket, flooding a utility room, and other mishaps.

    thanks for reviving this thread. I remember reading it when it first popped up. It reminded me how great a company Schott is. I know they take a knock from some of the crowd over here from time to time, and if I'm being honest, I think they're overpriced as new (but then again what jacket...

    Do you guys wear leather jackets at home?

    guilty as charged. I might scar you with this visual, but in the dead of summer, boxer shorts and a leather jacket LOL. Like most said though, mostly if it's brand new and I'm trying to get some wears on it. This year with some of the IH flannels purchases I made, I started wearing flannels...

    Fit check on this leather jacket, please

    yeah, you need half size bigger in chest and at best can keep waist and bottom as is, but probably could come down a little bit. Probably not the right design for you from this particular brand. And generally speaking, leather isn't going to stretch much. There's some stuff you can do to...

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

    I am part of the follicle challenged, so no hair, therefore no combs lol. I can tell you for sure if I passed a comb like that through the coat it would not shed like yours. I get no residue when wearing, etc. It is very very secure. It's either a bad batch or the particular soap you used...

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

    If I pinch very strongly and pull away, I can grab a few fibers. Nothing like what's happening to you. I would expect that from the amount of force I'm putting. I hate to be that guy, but what I would do if I were you is contact Bronson directly. It sounds like maybe you bought through a...

    Van Page Brown @HoosierDaddy, In Memoriam

    Early Thedi adopter too. Put it on my radar for sure. Reading about his life, served in the army, drove a fork lift, big family, strong roots. I fear there's less and less of these kinds of people in the world today. I don't have a lot of hope for where we're headed in the decades to come...

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

    Damn, bro. I had a husky once that I could pull out clumps of fur like that when he would shed at start of summer. Never seen anything like that since. I have a Bronson N1, I think it's Khaki. If I recall there's 3 grades to them. There's a cheaper one like $120ish, then there's a mid...

    Top 5 purchases of 2022

    I'm afraid to go back and document what I bought in the past 365 days. I think I'd end up checking myself into an addiction help center LOL. I haven't taken photos of everything yet so maybe I'll update this later, but what comes to mind in no particular order: RMC J24L IH Pale Rider HB...

    Questions about purchasing Aero Leather b-3 Jacket

    I must be thin skinned. I wear mine all the time. Sweet spot is about 35-55 degrees (3-15c). Like I said though, I wear it in short bursts, maybe 1-2 hours max and mostly over a tshirt or thin sweatershirt or light type 3 denim. I found D1 to be not warm enough at all. But it's definitely a...

    Questions about purchasing Aero Leather b-3 Jacket

    that's an ok price. Sounds right for new. I would go down one size in B3 from Aero, but I prefer snug fit since I won't need to layer with this jacket. Otherwise, order your chest size. Personally, I wear mine a lot but it's usually just in short time frames, for instance, taking the dog for...

    Cal Straight Zip w/ mutton collar, size 42ish

    Hey there. At 5'9, this should give you a really nice length. I'm 6'0 and I find it about an inch too short for my liking. I guess I could go get some super high rise jeans, but I've got too many jackets and I told myself, if I ever get into a situation where the jackets are circumstantial...

    Cal Straight Zip w/ mutton collar, size 42ish

    might be last bump on this and then I'll take it as sign to just keep it. Jake put out a great video on Youtube about this style of jacket which is probably one of the inspirations for the illustrious FW Mulholland. I've handled enough vintage jackets to know it's a special piece given the...

    Jacket Question

    do you have a jacket that fits you well now? Take measurements from that. Best to compare apples to apples. You can adjust for things like denim vs leather, etc. but good start is to have something tangible and then compare against what you want.

    FS: Lost Worlds Easy Rider HH Jacket 42

    Been holding off commenting because I can understand Carlos's pain. But we're painting Zot to be some mastermind criminal who sold sounds like dozens of jackets in fair transactions only to one day fool us all by ripping off Carlos. And what was this grand pay off, maybe a couple hundred...

    Noob sizing question, comparing Schott to Aero/Vanson/Real Mccoy

    shoulder measurement has a more forgiving range than say ptp. So within reason, it's more of an aesthetic thing than a fit thing. However, there are limits. Going too small will create tightness and discomfort. Jacket will still fit, but it won't be fun. Too big, and it'll look sloppy. I...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    this jacket is really nice on you. I owned one (not the nordstrom model) and it just never felt right on me. If you go to the 600s, I'd suggest the horsehide either SH if you want a trimmer fit or the regular horsehide. The regular steerhide models have that hide with really thick top coat...
