    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I know, it's definitely not as good a fit as yours, the one that got me to put the deposit down in the first place, the one i was dreaming about... I agree with you, it's too big.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    It's ironic, as a 90s kid i spent a good 10 years of my life wearing stuff that was at least one size too big for me, now i really struggle with that. @ton312 it definitely feels too big compared to what i would have wanted had i gone through with the order. It feels like it fits like an off...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I am not usually one to ask for fit advice, but the fact that i waited almost 4 years for this jacket means i am really struggling to be objective... The upper chest and arms look good, but the stomach area feels like a bag. When i wear it it feels too big, but seeing the pictures it looks kinda...

    Langlitz Columbia and Cascade review.

    Bonus footage: Here are pictures of a mid 60s well worn in Cascade to compare new vs worn leather, it is just as comfortable, if anything it feels like the same base pattern in the chest/shoulders area, but modified to remove the collar and the laced bottom. Pics: And fit pics: (the...

    Langlitz Columbia and Cascade review.

    First, thank you @JMax for proxying this jacket to me! I really appreciate it. For some reason we don't see many Langlitz jackets around here and i think it is a shame. In a way i understand why, they have a very strong look/style, there are hundreds of different cross-zips and cafe racers that...

    Lost Worlds Shearling(Satin at sleeves)Suburban 42

    Thanks, it falls on you where i would want it to fall on me, and it is going to be shorter on me... I'm out of this one. Good luck.

    Please help with hookless zipper problem.

    A very good machinist should be able to change the zipper leaving zero trace, going through the same holes as the ones created when the original zipper was stitched in and do an almost invisible zipper change. The problem arises when a not so good machinist tries that, and leaves empty stitch...

    Lost Worlds Shearling(Satin at sleeves)Suburban 42

    Man, if this was 2" longer in body and still had the side straps it would be an insta buy it now for me. Unfortunately i am 99% sure that it would be too short, does the thickness of the shearling make it feel even shorter than it really is? I would imagine that it sits higher on the shoulders...

    Please help with hookless zipper problem.

    Agreed, the teeth look badly spaced, changing the slider won't make a difference. Considering this is a riveted zipper i wonder how easy it is to change without visible signs of the surgery? If you were in the EU i would say send it back and ask for a remake as you received a defective product...

    KO' Win By Johnson Leather

    I agree with that reasoning, originally i thought the bicep pockets where a bit much, but if they serve a function to you who am i to tell you to remove them. I wouldn't want them on my jacket, but if they work for you keep them.
