    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    a little more looser fit than usual even after some dryer shrinkage, but got some bases covered for different scenarios. Going to play with the wavy zipper some, but i kind of like it on some jackets.

    air it out, inside out. little vinegar/water mix maybe too. Took years to get that smell, might take a while to get it out. My Levis trucker came with about a gallon of Drakkar Noir. Took about 5 washes with dawn and a good 3 weeks airing to almost get it all away. Good thing I was ok...

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

    Given it's trainee jacket, I wouldn't be surprised if the back was not executed properly. Something seems way off there. Jacket looks almost perfect from the front and the gussets should allow for a tighter fit if anything.

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

    Thurston Bros pull on their measurements. Aero must be more of a flat measurement. So, IOW, Thurston Bros is sort of the max setting or maybe look at it as the measurement once you get a good break in, especially with CXL.

    Buying jackets on Japanese auction sites

    you might get something in the mail charging you. sometimes the carrier will pay and then invoice you directly. It all depends. In any case, I don't think it's a big hit. Just referencing the Thurston Bros stuff, they breakdown the costs of the Aero jackets and I think it's usually like 40...

    so dang nice. I can't deal with the action back though. Every time I have a jacket with one, I regret it or end up sewing up the bottom half of it.

    Buying jackets on Japanese auction sites

    ah ok. So add another $15-20 for the domestic shipping to be safe. Sometimes it'll say in the listing, but you need to read all the fine print and of course translate to English. My Vanson Enfield was just over 3.3 kg. My Schott Edit: got cut off for some reason. My Schott was closer to 2.2...

    Buying jackets on Japanese auction sites

    I think anything under $800 doesn't incur customs charges to US. If you're in another country, no idea what that might be. There's an exclusion if the jacket was made in USA and is returning, but I'd not count on that. Requires them to fill out the forms properly. The Shipping fee is the...

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

    those blue lines, if I had a dollar for every Aero jacket I see like that... well I think that's a design issue many of us have remarked about. Some of us have put comments in the other thread you started, but it's not just the measurements, it's also the style of jacket. Military stuff is...

    Can we please discuss sizing of jackets please

    I would also add bottom hem to the equation. Depending on how your body type is, the mid waist measurement is kind of important as well if you need taper. I think the photo you provided shows a pretty good fit. Shoulders seem big based on how the line is hitting, but it's tricky with military...

    To alter a Schott or leave it stock?

    It's typical Schott sizing problem. I did the same to my 141 because chest is pretty close, but waist and bottom were too big. Tailor made some silly mistakes with the finishing, but he nailed the cut. Completely transformed the jacket. But I would never do again. I would rather just buy a...

    YEah, I saw the Per2 as well. Looks nice, but I got plenty in that style. The Per3 arrived on Sat. I put some pics in WAYWT thread earlier today. It's pretty nice. Not the usual Schott oversize sizing, but not quite trim and sleek either. I was expecting more from a Per labeled jacket with...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    they've got more styles than I thought with the D, or maybe I just wasn't paying attention before. This one is Per3. Never heard of it. Was a collab with Barneys. Has side laces. Was a little bit better than typical Schott sizing but I knew the Large would be half size too big. I gave it a...

    I just joined D Pocket Nation and I'm digging it. A little big on me. Going to stick in the dryer some more. I don't mind the wavy zips too much. Makes it look vintage LOL. And needs lots of breaking in for sure.
