    100% wool A2-inspired jackets

    Kids jackets needed pockets for mittens so they wouldn't loose them, and knit cuffs to prevent gaps between the sleeves and mittens. Maybe the A2 was inspired by a Mom knitting mittens and cuffs for her kids. Adding pockets because she was tired of the kids always loosing a mitten and having to...

    How do you treat your hard-to-replace (vintage, expensive/high-end, limited edition, etc.) jackets?

    Many things are very difficult to replace now. It's not just jackets. I bought one of the 1st 100 Ford Raptor trucks in production. It was $34,000 in 2010. Many of the original buyers wouldn't consider to use it as a daily driver, it was too special. I drove it everywhere on and off road...

    Looking for a Duffel bag

    You asked about a gym bag. That is usually towel, work out clothes, water bottles, energy snacks, gloves, lifting straps, workout shoes, deodorant. I would never put a laptop in a bag with those things. Did you switch from lookin for a gym bag to an office bag? I missed that.

    (KNIVES) Let's see some sharp pointy objects

    I bought the Chris Reeve Small Inkosi in S35VN in 2020. The Small Sebenza in CPM magnacut is from 2024. The Magnacut steel has much better edge retention. The Sebenza is a much more versatile blade shape. If I had to choose one it would be the Sebenza for it's utility. With the Inkosi and the...

    Give Away jacket - Vintage Custom Swedish goat jacket - p2p:57cm/22.5"

    Take some of the body material and fabricate a longer cuff on the sleeves. Maybe a pipe in one pocket and tobacco in the other.

    Looks sharp. Except the sleeves are too short again. I had a Schott made in Canada and gave it away because of the sleeves being a few inches too short.

    I have 17 " shoulder and 25.5" sleeve. Ironheart works best in the non-custom world. Stick with that brand since it fits you. They have plenty of nice things to choose from.

    Yes to the iron heart deck jacket. I like the stuff they make. Sleeve are almost long enough. Bronson also make a few items that work well with a small long arm shape body. Helps out a lot on the motorcycle.

    Yes! Get a battery powered vest for those cold days and you will be removing the hat and unzipping the jacket. It's better than adding a whole bunch of layers.

    Looks like you have the same long arms problems I have. Although I'm a small I buy medium size to get 1" longer length in the sleeve. And they are still 2 inches too short. Then one year ago I discovered custom, and no longer waste my time having a closet full of oversized short sleeve jackets...

    Looking for a Duffel bag

    I have saddleback. It is nice and heavy but not very handy. It take a lot of time to operate the heavy buckles. For a gym bag or something I need to get in and out of quickly and move on to the task at hand I would go for textile. And it is easier to stash out of the way. Red Oxx railroad...

    Looks goofy to me. Get rid of it. The sleeves and body are much too short. If I was out and about and you passed by wearing that it would be extremely difficult to keep from laughing.

    Eastman B-3 query

    You can wear away the fleece on any brand shearling jacket by constantly rubbing it against something. The more you rub it the faster it will wear down. If you do a lot of walking and your arms brush against your side with every step it will wear down much faster. The neck area also wears...

    Leather Down Jacket

    If you are looking for a down jacket 80% of the down in all down jackets (or any other down product) comes from China. Most of it is duck down and may have a little goose mixed in. Products are generally assembled in China, India, and Mexico. The feathers may be stitched into a packet in China...
