Ordering my first leather jacket - a sunburst - probably Aero
I too love the stuff from aero but I have rather a tough time getting stuff off the shelf as I'm in between sizes, have long arms, height arching neck and skinny arms... Sigh. Virtually every shirt I have has folds around my neck cos of my neck and when I get the shoulders to fit the sleeves...- Mawashi

Denim Jackets - New or Vintage
It's likely the former as I don't see any evidence of labels sewed on in the first place. But I'm happy cos regardless of what it is, I can happily alter it and wear it without babying it. The materials are awesome and it'll super heavyweight! The Japanese stuff will always be very...- Mawashi

Denim Jackets - New or Vintage
Hey Edward, I hear you and having a nice jacket to use is much better than having it the storeroom being mothballed. Other than the buttons there isn't any tags or labels so I doubt it has much provenance. If it is a samurai it's going to be a samurai that fits me lol. Here's some info on...- Mawashi

Denim Jackets - New or Vintage
Thanks Edward, Fact is I'm not totally sure what I got and if it's a genuine Samurai I'll be super interested in which year this was made as I can't find any info of when such buttons were used as these are usually found on jeans and not the jackets. Another dilemma I'm having is, I want to...- Mawashi

Ordering my first leather jacket - a sunburst - probably Aero
I have thin arms not that the sleeves were too thin. Her reply was they don't have measurements of the sleeve or cuff width and I'll have choose those jackets mentioned earlier if I wanted slimmer sleeves or cut. This is very strange as I'm sure they have all the measurements once I have...- Mawashi

Denim Jackets - New or Vintage
I chanced upon a vintage jacket and demin shop today and took a gamble on this SGD $40 OR USD $28.5 denim jacket. The label was missing and so was any identifying tags. The only clue I had was the button. A Google search and I found out its from a Co called Samurai... I think...- Mawashi

Why only Japan makes high-quality jackets?
I don't know where this is going lol but the Japanese are for a lack of a better term a rather precise bunch. That's not to say the British, Italians or anyone else aren't able to produce high quality gear. I won't delve too much into this but I'm pretty sure a Langlitz, is as good as it...- Mawashi

Ordering my first leather jacket - a sunburst - probably Aero
I may not have the budget for a full custom as this would be my first real jacket. I told him that as I haven't a clue what I really want in a jacket yet, I might get a 2nd hand off the bay so I know better what I want in a travel jacket before contacting him again sometime next year. I also...- Mawashi

Dan, I too mailed Holly my measurements however, I was told they don't do bespoke jackets and won't alter the sleeves. My concern is I have thin arms and if the if the arms don't fit well it'll be like having a flapping flag for a sleeve. She did say that the Premier Highwayman and Half Belt...- Mawashi
