    FOR SALE: Aero Zip Sleeve Highwayman, Brown CXL Steerhide (Size 38)

    Hi everyone. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm selling my Aero Highwayman. I fell head over heels in love with this thing when I got it nearly three years ago and it's come to break in very nicely, but I hardly ever grab this jacket when I go out the door. In need of financing other...

    Does anybody know of any great vintage shops in Shanghai, specializing in engineer boots and 1950s workwear and the like?

    Women often really dig mine, and not in a 'I have the same pair at home' way. So I say go for it. Wear 'em, rock 'em and don't worry about it.

    X-1 café racer jacket + 1930's halfbelt

    I most definitely was, but it pains me to say that right now isn't the best of times for me to purchase another jacket. But thanks for thinking of me!

    My brown Road Champ boots should be here by the end of the month ... !

    You're killing me, man!!! The wait is getting harder and harder... Those boots are looking amazing!

    And that just looks terrible in my opinion.

    I think the tucked in look is one of the worst mistakes you can make. Definitely wear your jeans over your boots and roll up your cuffs once or twice. But it's a matter of personal taste, of course.

    Some folks have been waiting for 2.5 to 3 years for their pair. The reason for this is the Road Champ leather is pretty hard to source and comes in very limited batches. The Black Champs have been the main offering for the past 1.5 years, and since I've been waiting for a brown pair there was...

    I'm a size 7.5, but I've emailed them multiple times over the past 2 years. Only 3 weeks ago (feels like a lot longer) Peter told me I'm the next one up for a size 7.5, so it shouldn't be too long. In the meantime, gents, please enjoy your boots for me!

    Definitely. They go with you wherever you go and keep you safe and looking like a badass.

    Not to worry, my friend. When the Black Road Champs were announced in July of 2015, I only had to wait 3 months to get my pair. I guess they can't really control what sizes come in. But I've got the Black Champs and my 8 other pairs of engineers to hold me over until the Brown Champs come in...

    Thanks, mate. Road Champ pics are always welcome! I've seen the halfsoles on every recent pair of brown Road Champs and I believe I've seen Christophe comment on Instagram that they're standard on this batch. Now idea about any upcoming batches, though.

    The new batch has the same Nitrene halfsoles as the black Champs and Trooper boots. I think it looks killer. But dayumn, I've been on the list for nearly 2 years and I see all these folks getting Champs thrown at them! Hope I get an email soon. But they're worth the wait.

    FS: Vanson Comet Size 38, black, good as new, 300$ shipped!

    I recently purchased this one from a fellow lounge member. I have to say I have hardly worn it since. It was kind of an impulse buy and the jacket is just a tad too small for my liking. For reference, I am 5 feet 8 inches tall at 150 lbs. My chest measures roughly 41.5" and my waist is about...

    I say resole 'em and have the steel toe removed. Or wear the current sole out first and then have them resoled. I see the less pretty, stock sole as 5 years of free service. It would be a waste to spend 200 dollars on a resole now while you have a perfectly good sole left. You're gonna have to...
