    Explaining the Aero Fit.

    If this is sarcasm, resentment or some other emotion, then I will not understand it. English is not my first language.

    Explaining the Aero Fit.

    Thanks for the examples. But we all have our stereotypes. It can be called iconic and can be called historically significant things. In addition to the fact that everyone has different interests, it is impossible to cover everything. Everyone's experience and living conditions are different...

    Explaining the Aero Fit.

    If we talk only about convenience/comfort then I have a lot of membranes and fleece. My membrane jackets, pants and other things cost more than many leather jackets. But the soul requires variety. Barbour, as far as I understand, is an analogue of Fjallraven. I also wear such clothes, but I have...

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

    The leather looks very attractive. In parallel with all my today's orders for jackets, I was constantly looking for the leather and style of the jacket that I had 20-25 years ago. I thought for a long time that my jacket was made from a cowhide. But now I'm more and more inclined to think that...

    Explaining the Aero Fit.

    Thanks a lot. It was the movement of the arms that I was interested in. Elegance/aesthetics in leather jackets is definitely not in the first place for me, since I plan to use leather only for walking. You can get significantly more compliments from women if you just take off all your...

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Thank you very much. This is valuable information. I already almost accurately understand the sizes I need, depending on the many characteristics of the jackets. I actually ordered from three different manufacturers last year but while I have the opportunity I will adjust some measurements.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I often see JL here. Are these all custom orders? Or was there once a normal site with prices and different styles?

    Explaining the Aero Fit.

    @Canuck Panda I'm inclined to believe that absolutely no one understood my question. Of course it could be my fault. I am trying to write the same question in a different way. You have two identical 1950s jackets. 38 and 40 size. You try to raise your arms or rotate your arms while wearing...

    Explaining the Aero Fit.

    You, to put it mildly, inaccurately reproduced even what I wrote. Additionally, a juggling of thoughts was made. Is this kind of art interesting? Maybe someone. Is this actually a reaction? No. Should I publicly end the "discussion" of my question? I have completed.

    Help me determine my size in the FW La Brea

    :) From the total majority of sellers of jackets and shirts, I cannot get a neck measurement even in words and especially in a photo. Many even sincerely did not understand why I was interested in this. In half the cases when I asked about the mass of clothes, the correspondence with me stopped...

    No, I won't call. There are too many sensitive people here. "Negative information spoils the mood." :)

    Post Brexit import experiences

    I'm guessing stupid now. But wouldn't it be cheaper for you to just go to Scotland yourself and buy a jacket there?

    Post Brexit import experiences

    In UK as well as Aero do many others for foreign buyers. I will not list names here. But over the years, I've got the impression that it's almost a British tradition. P.S. Just in case someone didn't understand. Not all UK sellers do this.

    My two new Lost Worlds jackets

    Thank you. LW has the best leather for my taste. If LW could sew from a dark brown HH, then I would have spent a lot of extra money.

    Post Brexit import experiences

    Of course this is all legal. It seems to me that I have already written about this here and I received the same reaction. There is a possibility of VAT refund. Anyone who really wants to can find a way. I do not provide such a service. I only refund VAT for the last 20 years worldwide.

    Post Brexit import experiences

    It works like any other exporter. Just like Aero can and should do. Any exporter returns the previously accounted VAT. Moreover, this happens in all countries. The British intermediary buys the goods in his own name and sends it to you. Aero has a UK VAT number. You can see it on their invoices...

    Post Brexit import experiences

    There are intermediaries (mail forwarding) in the UK who, for a very small fee, will return the VAT to you and send it to another country.

    Help me determine my size in the FW La Brea

    I don't know anything about this jacket, but I know a lot of people here can only understand inch measurements.

    The first few photos show a jacket that is 16 years old?

    Vintage Outerwear: Threads of the Past

    What size of the main (long) zippers on old leather jackets was most often? #6, #8, #10?
