    Schott x Shinki Jacket

    mojo, I’m afraid to say this is indeed a sewing error. It doesn’t really affect wearing and durability but just like Carlos said, there’s the thing called sleeve ease in pattern making, most of the time. Schott patterns have about 0.5 to 1” sleeve ease I’d think, based on my experiences, very...

    With some standard stretching, it’s getting much better. He said “he made it that way”. So at least it’s not due to incompetence. Next time I’ll just have to tell him NOT to make it that way.

    RoleClub fans, quick heads up, Brian might be able to offer a new range of leather. I have to shamelessly claim credit here, as I told him about the possibility to purchase SB Foot leathers. I have a stack of SBF sample from Hide House and I can see engineer boots made of any of them, Klondike...

    If anyone see a BLACK flight jacket, please let me know. Lately been living immersively in the Lou Reed world and been itching for that 70s black leather bomber jacket look, but it turned out black flight jackets are quite rare.... the quintessential look of the mouton fur collar jacket (Freddie...

    Aero Indian Ranger Jacket - 44

    AeroFan, I'm drooling over the Sales page IR right now, they don't provide hem, does it taper? I'm a bit bothered by the over arched/curved fake action back, otherwise the black jerky HH is my favourite.

    Yep, been doing just that, thin socks and plastic bag (that came with the boots, ironically). Certainly my right foot is much deformed lol, left one can go on with a healthy amount of squeeze, but right one feels dangerously tight, except when using plastic bag.

    after one hour of static stretch, i tried the plastic bag method and actually pulled through! he replied saying he purposefully made it tight...well, didn't have to because once pulled on, everything fall in place like perfection. well, the stretch must go on

    So, after six months (not bad), finally received a new pair of RoleClub. Beautifuo as always and light weight this time, due to pure leather sole. However, something scary with them, I can’t get my heel past the neck (just above the heel cup). I recall my first pair five years ago to also be...

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

    they quote covid, i believe them, but at the same time they say "there are six or seven jackets ahead of you", i don't know if it's six or seven of any model or six seven of the 1947, while 100 other models lol
