    Tudor has been putting out some gorgeous watches lately. Since you mentioned a nylon strap, check out the Pelagos FHD - a modern take on a classic watch designed for French Navy divers. Fixed lugs and a plethora of strap options.

    Aero has a new leather called Pinnacle

    I had the same response from my wife when I had a Badalassi fit jacket. Fortunately, Vicenza was my first choice. This new leather complicates my situation dammitt.

    Aero Seven Custom - Recommendations

    I can bet there will be a substantial wait time for that hide as supplies ramp up but that is a beautiful leather. I would suffer the wait. Let us know how the sample feels.

    Aero has a new leather called Pinnacle

    I would be the target consumer for that hide. I love the look of cxl but wore one once and immediately felt it was just too much for my casual wearing.

    Aero Seven Custom - Recommendations

    Okay Bison…. Now you and I are definitely of like minds…. After having my Seven for a year or so, I realized I also needed something with a bit more room to add a layer for the colder Colorado weather. I am currently waiting for a Thedi Niko through Thurston. It has been delayed several months...

    Aero Seven Custom - Recommendations

    For the OP’s reference… Here is a shot showing the maximum pocket flare/bulge I experience and I even had to exaggerate my motion to illustrate (my gut isn’t that big yet).. I also dropped the front zip to 1.5” from the bottom. I do not have any problem with flare and it has not caused any...

    Untucked shirts? Brands to recommend

    Just received a flyer from Untuckit advertising 20% off until 5/23.

    Aero Seven Custom - Recommendations

    The hardwarmer pockets on the Seven are angled and any body movement naturally seems to help mine crease back inwards rather than puff out. I do recall some people saying when I was seeking advice on mine that the pockets may bulge but it has been a non-issue for me. Additionally, Aero does a...

    Aero Seven Custom - Recommendations

    I have a Seven in Vicenza. I ended up with a 44 (normally 42 in a tailored fit jacket) and added about an inch to the body and 3/4 inch to the sleeve length. It is a snug fit, especially in the armholes and sleeves. This adds to the very clean look of such a slim jacket but does mean that it...

    Well, it's been a long, long wait!

    Nice! Being fussy means we tend to keep the things we eventually pull the trigger on.

    Untucked shirts? Brands to recommend

    I have a few J Crew and Untuckit shirts. The J Crews are a little shorter whereas I can just barely tuck in the Untuckits in an emergency if I need to clean up my look. The J Crew fabrics and tailoring are a few notches below the Untuckits, but they are much cheaper. One of my friends prefers...

    I sure hope to hell you bought that trucker. Especially if it was 50% off.

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    Well, I certainly won’t be adding an Imperial to the closet, nor will I be a part of the “Tribe” now. Plenty of other places to spend my money.

    Fit check on Aero Sheene please??

    Glad to hear it is working out since it looks so dang good. My Seven took months to finally settle in where it feels like a second skin. Honestly, I doubted Carrie’s fit recommendations for a few weeks as it settled in But her advice was spot on. It is just that these jackets are not meant to...

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    I just imagine how much good will within this community Himel could earn off of this thread by simply stating that he stands 100% behind his products, regardless of whether a clearly lower quality product was noted immediately or months down the road. And that he will make the situation right by...

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    I hope Himel views this as an opportunity to refine his manufacturing and QC process. I also hope he realizes that people like me would not even know he exists had it not been for this forum. I mean, hell, how does anyone find out about a jacket maker in Greece for heavens sake. Yet I currently...
