    Whites Packer Boots

    Yep, I agree, hard to beat the arch support of PNW footwear.

    Whites Packer Boots

    Figured I would start a new discussion on the Packer and Farmer-Rancher style boots. Other PNW "similar" boots, such as Nicks Rangers - welcome as well. I snagged the following "11B" White's Packers off ebay last week for a pretty low price - about $160 USD shipped. I tossed an offer at the...

    Schott 689HH Fit Check.

    I think it's fine. Sleeves could be longer as when you lift your arms they likely roll back some. Overall length just a little short for my taste (for myself) but I am a 100% tucked shirt person when wearing any type of T-shirt/dress shift, etc. So I prefer the jacket not to ride up either...

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    New to me White's Packers - 11B - need a little oiling and correct break in, but well worth the investment.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Older Vanson Star's are around a 22 - 23" back length. Plenty on the 'bay but they hold their value.

    Experience purchasing my Aero Hudson from Japan through Buyee

    I think you did great! Sure looks good on you and I agree that grain on the leather is slightly different than any CXL Steerhide I've handled. However like Tony said the trip to & from Japan and something over there may have affected the hide to a small degree. In any case - that's a very...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    JMax & Tony - I'm 50% temped to try it, but I kind of lost some change, and it was a little harder to sell my last model E that did not fit correctly. Likely the tobacco smell/history. I also 100% agree, the "size 46" Model I had in the spring was quite large for me. Hopefully the Right...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I noted that too! My "44" Model E was similar - 23" Pit to Pit is closer to a 42.

    Aero Highwayman: Hide Check

    The tags and heavier weight lining suggest it could be an early production HWM - and possibly Connolly if so. either way, it should be a good jacket. Was this on ebay? If so I looked at it (same lining & tags) and it had a Lot of lining holes, etc. I think it also needed a zipper, so I...

    How to Find the right size Aero Half Belt 1930s

    I would go visit Aero in person TBH.... Granted it would likely be a flight or a few train ride, but much easier and then you are assured it's correct from the get-go.

    Seeking advice on first leather jacket

    So the true "old school" Competition Weight was discontinued sometime just after the year 2000. I think whatever you obtain in the same specification today should be quite suited for the jacket & your needs.
