Judging by some recent threads, it looks like there is not much news about, so I thought I would bump this to see if anyone has some actual advice.
Can anyone point me to a good replacement for Bill's? I am particularly interested in the higher rise of the M1. I am looking to our American...
I can't arrive until 10 am but am confident there will be something of interest, whether it be leather, denim or some of the stock jackets. I am having trouble understanding some of the negativity. Up until a few years ago, we all loved the jackets that are going to be on sale. I am fairly...
I am looking forward to a day out to the factory. I have been once before and it was a very interesting visit. To me, the costs of the return flights (£70) are worth that on their own. If I am lucky enough to get a leather jacket - great! But, I think there is also quite a bit of denim to view...
Lost Worlds do the Bedford. During Mr Lauder's time in charge at Aero they had a pattern for a single breasted Barnstormer which was very similar. I had one made but no longer have it. I love the look but found the belt too much bother and had it belted at the back most of the time. I also love...
I really like Bill's and will miss them if they go.
Does anyone have any suggestions for an M1 replacement available in the UK? I especially liked the higher rise offered by the M1.
As long as the manufacturer is open, I think a wait, and a little inaccessibility, makes the item more attractive. I have waited for both Aero and Ciano and have not been disappointed, and the wait does not figure in my consideration of the next order. For me, a wait of 4 to 5 months for an...
I have been once to the Aero factory and for my money it was worth the trip just to see the stuff at first hand. Not just the leather, the denim and Harris tweed, the boots and a little of Aero's history. I also found it really helpful to try things on and get a much better idea of what fit...
I think oneterrificdog has nailed it. Intense Wear is the answer. I had a Long Half Belt that I wore in an open top car with bucket seats. After three years of ownership it still hit my ears when I got onto the car. I now have a 20's Work Coat in vicenza and love it's wearability. Having...
For a number of reasons, many years ago I decided not to purchase anything made in China. Over the years my view has changed and I now feel that it is probably best to allow developing nations to trade their way to better conditions for all. Some refer to the 'invisible hand'. Part of the...
A number of years ago it was Redford's jacket in 'The Natural' that started me thinking about a vintage style jacket. A few minutes on the internet and I realised that I had not come up with a cool original idea. This jacket is replicated by at least two manufacturers. Fortunately, soon after...
