    Five Star Leather Jackets

    This is Cognac. If I had to do it over again I would go with Black or a darker brown. Keep in mind there is nothing wrong with this leather but it just lacks the depth of leathers from brands like Aero, Thedi, Himel etc. but it also lacks the price tag so take that into consideration that...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I don’t want to pollute the 5 Star thread with praise for another maker but that Aero you are wearing fits perfectly. Leather and contrast stitching look amazing and just confirms that I was hesitant about getting a board racer from Aero because of my bulky frame but I think this Aero Hercules...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Took the words out of my mouth. I feel the sane way about these trucker jackets. Clearly the same amount of work goes into making these as other jackets but i couldn’t tell anyone a reason but I just can’t see a reason to pay crazy amounts for these like the Japanese brands. I do like the...

    New old Buco J22 pics

    Has anyone thought of Bill Kelso? He will use NOS zippers on request and besides that will reproduce accurate labels for any model. I would be happy if it were an original but just wouldn’t be surprised if someone pulled a repro manufacturer tag off and sold it as original. But those white...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    That width by numbers can be tricky for those who don’t know and even sellers because they be written 9-5 on the inside in marker and some can buy thinking they are a 9 1/2 UK. @Blackadder know this is very subjective but from your Viberg to Whites experience, what number did you go up to from...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Trickers does sizing for width by numbers instead of letters, I think 5 being standard width similar to D in the USA. I’m a 10D in US boots and a 9-5 in Trickers. I’m pretty standard in sizing so I’m probably not the one to ask, there are guys on styleforum that are experts on this subject...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Your sportsclad is s mint^^^^^ Here are some relatively inexpensive Real McCoy jackets and one Himel priced really low. Not sure if these are in perfect condition but it’s nice to see people price used items as used, we have all seen the overpriced used jackets that stay on eBay seemingly...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    IDK if you will have that problem with the Trickers, I’m a size 10us in boots and a 9uk in Trickers, Grenson, Fred Perry and I didn’t notice much difference in the fit except the Fred Perry has a fabric lining inside. If it’s the bottom shape that is the problem then I have not met a pair of...

    I think you should be fine in normal boot size. Unless you have some crazy looking foot, just size 1/2 down from your normal sneaker size. People take this boot sizing way too seriously, honestly if you just at what people were wearing on their feet for thousands of years it’s comical that...

    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    I handled a Saint Laurent calfskin made during Hedi’s time and it felt much better than the current offerings, style was great and makes a great out in the town jacket. Prices were scary high, and the only flaw I could find was the puckering around the pocket zippers. If you were one of the...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    I just purchased my first high end pair of boots, a great price on Grailed and not much more than a pair of new Grant Stone. Nothing against Grant Stone but I prefer not to deal with companies that outsource if I can help it. If I was going to buy Chinese then I would go with Flame Panda or...

    Pit to Pit Variances

    Yes! because I remember a discussion you and MrProper discussed in the Field Leather thread and pointed out that due to the position of the arm hole insertion, that the arm hole cuts further in than many jackets, which you guy pointed out caused tightness and slight pulling when zipper with...

    Aero Sheene made of unfinished horsehide

    Love the look of this natural leather. This is in the top 3 colors Aero uses, the others would be that badass blue cxl that a few members had and that almost natural looking steer hide they apparently don’t have anymore.

    Pit to Pit Variances

    I apologize in advance if something like this has been discussed in detail but I thought it might help newer members like myself when purchasing a jacket online. Pit to pit can be so difficult to judge. Nobody really mentions this but P2P will vary depending on where the arm pit seam lies due...

    FS: Field Leathers modified "Route 66" Café Racer (sz 44)

    I think this would look great on someone 5’9”-5’10” with so many amazing jackets I don’t blame you.
