    Vintage (late 50s-early 60s) Schott Perfecto One Star NOS!

    Yesterday I received my new jacket, a vintage Schott Perfecto One Star in NOS conditions. It was bought in USA in 1962 and kept in a closet since then. The label is the one used in these jackets from late 50s to mid 60s. It's size 40 (luckily my size). The condition is stunning, only some...

    Brooks Brothers Clothing

    Standard BB shirts are very low quality, especially the fabrics. I have 4-5 and the ones that I wear more frequently are badly damaged in collar and cuffs in little more than a year.

    My new AERO Beacon NY Smooth Horsehide A-2

    I agree about the sleeves, I'm sure they will short a bit with creasing up so they will be perfect. I too like the shorter jacket length very much. The leather will expand a bit with wear, right? As I wrote above, my chest (expanded) is about 40.5", the jacket armpit to armpit is 22.5" so I...

    Buying an A-2: help needed

    Fedoralover- yes, $780 with the actual €/$ rate is not much more than the £360 of Aero, but there is a more expensive shipping to add, and customs fees that here are about 40% of the declared value+shipping! This leather seem very smooth, is it different from the other A-2 that Aero...

    Buying an A-2: help needed

    Fedoralover- your is the Russet-Rust (with rust referring to the wool), right? Frankly I could afford the £60 more for another version if they are worth for a better looking leather, without the "marks and scars" that seem to be present in that model according to the site description. In this...
