    Another Asian Repro Co

    They go to 48, which is modern 46. I do have a size 50 GW, but he won't make 'em anymore.

    Another Asian Repro Co

    They appear to offer only three sizes- 36 (s), 38 (m), and 40 (L). I thought GW and ELC were limited...

    FS: Aero Half-Belt Deluxe, size 50 long

    Sleeve length? What do you mean by "tumbled"? Did you put this in the dryer?

    Lost Worlds jackets.

    Wait, what? This seems unnecessary and potentially harmful. Why do anything to it within the first 5-10 years?

    Hide Matching on Leather Jackets

    Nick123 I'm not sure I agree with your generalization. My Good Wear A1 shows some serious wear in the capeskin. It's good quality, but it will wear holes sooner or later. But the original poster's concern was aesthetic, not practical. In that sense, I agree- ordering an expensive jacket sight...

    Hide Matching on Leather Jackets

    Sometimes I muse on how persnickity people can be on this forum. But then as you say a jacket with a price tag north of a grand should be pretty nice. Over 20 years ago when I bought my first Johnson jacket I was bothered by the way the front panels matched. Alan said it was the last of the...

    Bought a vintage police leather jacket...

    Collar doesn't look too bad yet. Worst case you can get that replaced by Johnson Leather and still have a very reasonably priced jacket. Yes, Pecard. Use your fingers to rub on a thin coat- just enough to cover, no extra. Then after 24 hours or so wipe down the jacket with a cloth and see...

    Flip up the leather sweatband and have a look at the actual size tag?

    well, its finally cold enough to wear my jacket collection...

    Wow. Hard to believe that Bedford is 15 years old. ...also hard to believe that the software upgrade to the Lounge lost my profile picture (now fixed with a new image).

    Think you're man enough to handle a BarnStormer flyboy...? No wimps allowed!!

    Worf, if you are buying it, I won't bid (sorry Dinerman). I have one close enough to it and it doesn't get cold enough here (I'd remove the shearling). Dinerman, I saw a pic of a d-pocket (black, not white) on your blog. But do let me know if you find any around size 50.

    Is it really a size 50? You putting it up on eBay? And what's the story on that D-pocket jacket in your blog?

    Johnson Leather M-200 Jacket

    Ah. He has before, guess he can't get ahold of it now. http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?74053-New-Johnson-Leathers-M-200-J-in-Horween-Chromexcel I think Technovox's jacket is a CXL/veg tan combo? Did you manage to check that out?

    Collar of Vintage Leather Jacket Cracking - Causes and Remedies

    I have had a similar experience with the leather sweatband of some vintage hats. The leather looked perfect, or nearly unworn, but after one or two days wearing the hat, the leather disintegrates. Perhaps one can save the leather by treating in advance, perhaps not. I suspect I treated the...

    Aero Leather Jacket Owners in SF Bay?

    Met up with VictorShadow last night. I showed him my Aero Hercules (originally seen here), my wrinkly old Johnson, and one of my Johnson D-Pocket jackets. Nice guy- good luck with your jacket (and thanks for the beer!).

    Aero Leather Jacket Owners in SF Bay?

    With weather still well into the 80s, I'm not so inclined to lug multiple heavy leather jackets on BART to SF for a work day... I could do it tonight or tomorrow afternoon in SF or the East Bay. I can meet with one jacket next Wednesday after 5. Next weekend is out and the week of 9/14 will...
