    My experience wasn’t great, but I ended up getting a full refund so I won’t complain too much.

    WTB: Aero Bootlegger or similar low key Cross zip

    I’m quietly hoping that the jacket I’m getting from FL will be the pinnacle of stripped-down, low-key cross-zip. It’s a journey I started about a year ago, after first seeing the Schott Raven and thinking it was a nice design but not a leather I’d want .

    Thoughts on Suede jackets like Schott 370

    I like their in- house forum as well - usually a good source of info and the occasional bargain deal.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Dude! That is another killer jacket. The fit and finish looks perfect for you. I've lost track of how many new jackets you have now ... and they have all looked superb.

    ^ That looks like a great fit! Any sizing advice? I did a quick search and couldn’t find measurements.

    Thoughts on Suede jackets like Schott 370

    Suede is not the delicate material some people make it out to be. Treat the suede with one of those supermarket sprays and it will be very stain resistant and waterproof. Reapply every few years after giving it a brush. You can also use one of those little suede eraser things to remove spots...

    I’d never tuck a shirt into jeans unless I had a jacket on. Then, I usually do a sloppy tuck - just the sides or just the front behind the belt. And the back.

    Tuck it in or buy shorter t-shirts. You can always tuck the sides in and leave a little hanging over the belt in front of you don’t like the ‘neatly tucked’ look.

    Wesco Boss and Whites Smokejumpers Size 10

    Thanks. Too narrow for me, but I already own both boots in my width and love 'em. Saved me from buying more, haha. This is a great deal for someone. GLWS!

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    @Mrfrown I really like the sunglasses, but the shape may not be right for you (ideally, you shouldn't see a lot of eyebrow poking over the top and they may also be too wide). I would start by looking at something sqaurish. Maybe something Wayfarer inspired or some classic GI issue AO (or...

    Going over my JL order I realized I said a 2” waist band. Too small! I’m looking at both @Jin431 ’s jacket and the BK below for inspiration- should I go 3” or 4”?

    On throat latches: I’m still on the fence about adding one to the JL I’m getting made now. I definitely like the BK example above - which is a little set in from the edge. It lays a little nicer and can also be buttoned out of the way if needed.
