    Fit Check: Iron Heart A-2 Deck Jacket

    Any thought on sizing down? Looks like you’ve got plenty of room to do so. Also, the folks at IH are absolutely great to work with. You can request them to try and find you a jacket with shorter sleeves. I’ve done this before with different jackets and shirts with pretty good success. The...

    Aero highwayman purchase advice

    With your chest size, I’d be looking for a PtoP measurement of at least 24.5”. That might feel snug depending what you want to wear under it. For me, I like about 4-6” over my chest size to layer with sweaters or UHFs. It’s great that you have a chance to try one on. Bring a soft tape...

    Aero highwayman purchase advice

    You need to go by the actual measurements of the jacket. I pretty much disregard tag sizes now.

    Lining Material in N-1: Real McCoy's vs. Iron Heart

    I have this seasons IH oiled ship cord N1. As Jake said, the sleeves being quilted might make for a less itchy feel for you. I only really notice a slight bit of itchiness when I flip the collar up on really cold days. It’s an amazing jacket IMO.

    Is it me or has it become harder to sell things on Classifieds or anywhere else?

    I’ve had really good success here, granted I’ve only sold three jackets total. They all sold within a week of listing. I think a lot depends on what it is and how you price it. I don’t like to barter, so I like to think I price things fairly. I’ve seen some “aspirational“ selling prices here...

    Advice wanted on Aero 1930's Half Belt sizing

    I think one size up should, do the trick. John Chapman told me that if a jacket is made using a good pattern, you can wear one size or even two sizes larger as in your example, and it should still look good. I trust his advice.

    Field Leathers Bespoke - what should I expect?

    I went custom on my first good leather jacket ( a Himel Imperial). If I were to do it all over again, I probably would’ve started out buying less expensive used jackets and gone to retailers or makers in person to try on different patterns. It took me 5 attempts to finally find a jacket that...

    Got my first and probably only leather jacket: Real Mccoy's Buco J-100

    Congratulations and welcome to the forum. The fit looks good, as others have said the sleeves are long, but unless you go custom, there are always compromises. The Flat Head may be another brand for you to check out someday. They make jackets with wide shoulders, large chests and somewhat...

    It's about time for a vest thread

    I only own one vest. It’s an IH with primaloft insulation. Purely for practical purposes. It works well over a UHF.

    Aero Hooch Hauler - Brown CXL FQHH - 2 month review

    Congratulations and thank you for the share. The jacket looks amazing on you and I really don’t think you could improve upon it (from a visual standpoint). I’ve gone full circle in my short time here, trying a number of different makers, both stock and custom jackets. I finally decided to...
