    I Got Stuck in My Jacket

    At least it wasn't an unlocked, shared use bathroom. Imagine walking in on that sight. haha

    I Got Stuck in My Jacket

    Yeah, I'm fed up with the shitty zippers. Thurston Bros. replaced the talon on my Aero cafe racer with a very nice Italian-made zipper that is smooth as butter. I can't remember the brand, but it's perfect. Time to just do the whole lot.

    I Got Stuck in My Jacket

    Well, it finally happened. After owning several Aero jackets and finding myself perpetually frustrated with the flimsy, #5 Talons, the main zip on my Wayfarer failed, trapping me inside the jacket. I sat down in my car and noticed it had split at the bottom, unzipping the bottom two inches...

    FS: Schott Perfecto 618hh Size 40

    Hi - What's the bottom hem measurement? This is often a make it or break it measurement for me. Thanks!

    Is This Schott P613s Too Large?

    Hi - the jacket looks fantastic now. I did not end up keeping the one pictured in this post. I bought another size medium from Schott and it fit significantly better, then I returned the one in the photos. The one I kept is a shade lighter, which is not preferable, but I’ll take fit over color...

    Bates Vintage Padded CR ~ 42

    What a cool jacket! Black and green look great together. I wish it was one inch longer in body and sleeves, and didn't say Harley Davidson. Still tempted to try it though...

    What a bummer! Leave that negative feedback and don’t feel bad about it. Sorry for your loss though.

    Comeback or not, I'm afraid my face is incapable of growing sideburns. Or a full beard for that matter. Alas, I'm stuck with my feeble facial hair.

    FiveStar Leather 1930's Cafe Racer in premium , waxed goat

    For what it's worth, I had a similar lining issue on a custom Thedi. The lining sagged so low it was visible below the leather on the back when wearing it. Thankfully, I was able to send it to Thurston Bros. who repaired it for free since I bought it through them. My only point here is that...

    Very cool! Thanks for the details. Now I just need those sideburns to complete the look.

    This is the place where I’m understood.

    Vintage Brooks Cafe Racer

    Thanks for your suggestions. Typically, I am drawn to jackets in new or like-new conditions, and while I know I can probably find this model in better condition for the same or less money, I have to admit part of the appeal is the aged leather. It’s the type of effect many manufacturers strive...

    Great find! I think I will sign up for eBay alerts whenever Brooks a cafe racer is listed.

    Vintage Brooks Cafe Racer

    Thanks! Unfortunately, the size tag was torn off, so I’m left guessing. This makes it a bit harder to buy online. I might go back to the shop with a tape measure.
