    Corduroy vs alpaca wool lining for horsehide jacket

    I'd like to hear from forum members about the relative benefits of corduroy vs alpaca wool as a jacket lining for horsehide. I'm mostly interested in learning which lining is warmer, but would welcome any other input that will help me make an informed decision.

    Wanted- N-1 Deck Jacket Medium

    I have a blue N-1 jacket in size 40. It's unworn new old stock. There is no label aside from "N-1 dry clean only size 40". The tag that was attached when I bought it said made in USA, but I have since lost the tag. This is not the same quality as Buzz Rickson, Pike Brothers, etc. but I can...

    Aero FQHH Highwayman with shearling lining and mouton collar

    I bought the jacket used, and don't know if the original owner specified the placement of the labels. But most shearling jackets I have seen that have a corduroy or nylon lined section at the base of the hem have the labels placed there.

    Aero FQHH Highwayman with shearling lining and mouton collar

    For reference sake, I'm 5' 10" and 155 pounds and wear a size 38 suit. I can wear this jacket with the side buckle adjusters pulled tight, but it's big on me. Even though this jacket is labeled a size 38, it's actually bigger than my size 40 Eastman B-6. Of course they are designed to fit...

    FS: NEW Aero Hercules CXL Steerhide Brown - Shearling Lined / Alpaca

    Sorry to hear about your back troubles. I've had a few neck surgeries myself so I feel your pain. That's a fantastic looking jacket. Would you mind sharing your height and weight for reference? Do you typically wear a size 42 in a suit, or did you have to size up in this jacket in order to allow...

    Aero Long Half Belt 36/38 FQHH

    It does look like this measures out closer to 38 than 36, but can you give your height and weight for reference and also say whether or not you layer underneath this jacket? Thanks!

    Which watch

    Watches with white dials and leather straps are typically considered formal, and a black strap is more formal than a brown strap. All three would be acceptable for business wear, but some would say they are too formal for casual wear. The current trend is toward large case watches, and 42 mm...

    Favorite hair styling products: Pomade/brylcreem/etc...

    I've been using a number of water-based pomades including Billy Jealousy, Layrite, Uppercut, and Baxter of California. My favorite is probably the Billy Jealousy, although it borders on being a gel. I think the Layrite Supershine provides the most vintage look, and it can be restyled...

    D-1 vs. down jacket warmth

    I know similar questions have been asked in the past, but I'm specifically interested in feedback regarding the relative warmth of a D-1 jacket (perhaps Aero) compared to a modern down insulated jacket for winter. I tend to be cold in the winter, so it would be great if anyone who has both...
