    Males, do you part/manage your hair everyday?

    I pomade my hairs everyday (mostly Schmiere Medium or Hard, or Reuzel Green). Rince them every morning to get rid of the exces grease, and wash 'em when nothing's left to be done (i.e. once or twice a week). The only times I don't do them in the morning are those rare days when I don't plan to...

    A2 re-dye advice needed

    Don't forget to take pictures during the process. I'm curious to see how the shoulder decal will go, as I was thinking of getting one for my jacket.

    Pike Brothers 1958 Roamer Pant // Sz.34-36

    One last bump at 80EUR, or make me a reasonable offer.

    Thurston Bros + Aero + TFL = Trouble

    Will be a really great fit with the added sleeve length. And I think Carrie and Wade were right, there! Damn guys, it's only been 2 months since I got my Aero A-2, and you make me want another Aero jacket...

    Show us your Guns!

    Indeed, pretty classic one, not so much here in Belgium, though. I must say, I think I found THE carbine I needed. Have never had so much fun shooting anything else, and precision is pretty good too. Funny thing, most people prefer the regular stock over the paratrooper one, but with my big...

    Show us your Guns!

    Well guys, the update to a Korean War/Vietnam War timeframe M1 has now been fully done for some times. Here are the changes made: - Repro para stock - Original adjustable sights instead of the original flip up - Security lever changed from type 1 (push button type) to type 2 (rotary lever) -...

    Donald Duck cleared of extremism in WW2 propaganda cartoon!

    Cannot believe there are people stupid enough to think this was a pro-nazi cartoon. Well, actually, a friend of mine thought so too, until we urged him to watch it entirely. I'm tired of people being too lazy to read/watch things entirely before forging their opinions.

    Hair cuts

    My "usual" haircut since I decided to go to a real barber shop: Kinda like it when it's growing longer, too:

    New Aero A-2 42-18775-P

    Very, VERY nice! I honestly hope mine will look as good with a couple years of wearing!

    A1 from Aero

    I'd agree with the guys, it looks one size too big on you, and the sleeves look really huge. Same for the pockets. I must say I'm kind of surprised to see such big pockets on an Aero A-1.

    MISTER FREEDOM SALE

    Uuuuh, don't want to be THAT guy, but, seriously... 390USD for a denim shirt, 130USD for a cap, 150USD for a freakin' short?! I can understand the material used must be top notch, craftsmanship really good, but come on!!

    Anyone know if there are any repop USN 37J1B jackets?

    That's freaking nice!! I hope Headwind would do some 37J1, that would be really great.

    New Aero A-2 42-18775-P

    Two pictures of the "stress points" where the top finish has been giving up, showing the reddish color of the leather underneath:

    IMHO, you made the good decision. If you mess up, sure, it'll be up to you and only you. But if you success, you will have your beloved jacket upgraded by your own hands, with the fit and finish as you like it.

    Eastman Roughwear 1401 A-2 jacket - Holy Grail!

    Indeed, the zipper wave is a bit heavy. Except for that, it's looking really, really good! The HWT did bring out tons of grains.

    New Aero A-2 42-18775-P

    Isn't the HWT working both ways, I.E. being able to stretch some parts of the jacket soaked/sprayed in hot water?

    Anyone know if there are any repop USN 37J1B jackets?

    You should check the bay, I saw a couple BR and W&G 37J1B lately. Or you should maybe check with Haley Aviations for one of their M-421B?

    White RAF Roll Neck Sweaters

    @Joel Shapiro , it looks pretty great. I was wondering today how I'd be able to fit a Submariner under my A-2 without looking stupid !

    New Aero A-2 42-18775-P

    @Monitor , to be honnest, I don't know if it's Horween. It's the standard Jerky HH from Aero. The hide is amazing, showing lots of grain and character. The top coating is already getting a bit "used" at some friction points, showing the reddish hide below it, couple creases here and there... I'm...
