    New Custom Vanson Oxford in Octagon

    I remeber those that I’m waiting for and those that have recently arrived. Sometimes I forget what I already have sitting in the closet! [emoji3] I would really need to thin the heard as I have quite a few jackets that I never wear. I just dislike selling on ebay and these jackets are just...

    New Custom Vanson Oxford in Octagon

    I was actually little worried that this jacket would turn out too orange based on some photos I googled. This current batch Octagon looks very nice to me, but the color is very hard to describe. It has elements of russet / cordovan / oxblood in it depending on light.

    New Custom Vanson Oxford in Octagon

    Yes, it definately needs braking in, but at least my jacket is/was comfortable and easy to wear from start. Nothing like Aero cxl fqhh for example. Also I would say that octacon doesn’t feel as stiff as its sister, Vanson’s X150 which is basically the same hide in black color.

    New Custom Vanson Oxford in Octagon

    I love the fit of model b / oxford. That’s why I decided to go custom instead of having standard octagon enfield. Also, Vansons pricing is strange, this custom Oxford turned out to be almost exactly the same price as standard oct enfield is.

    Weight lifting belts?

    While I don't agree with Gromulus about "serious lifter" absolutely needing a belt, I agree with him that 4" wide straight belt is your best choice if you decide to buy one.

    Weight lifting belts?

    Stuart is that you? Damn those metrosexual non-belt-wearing sissy weight ladyboy lifters! Ps. Is my manly man Suburban jacket ready soon? :D

    Weight lifting belts?

    This is true. If you’re trying your max or protecting an injured back belt might be ok, otherwise it will only hurt your gains. Squat and deadlift are lifts in which you see most people using belts. If they didn’t use belt and started with weights they can actually handle they would train their...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Aero Mulligan in tumbled brown fqhh. I bought This jacket used and I think it is from time when Aero used much thicker and stiffer fqhh. Its almost too stiff for my liking as it must be closer to 4.0 oz but I love the colour and the fit. Also I noticed that my arms are too shorts for proper...

    Question about bulking and Aero jacket size

    +1 for don't bulk unless you're using chemicals. One of the good reasons is that bulking should be followed with hard training combined with hard diet to lose the extra fat but to maintain(most of) the muscle mass. Hard training + hard diet is a combination that might cause many problems, for...

    Jacket Hangers

    To me its obvious that jacket feti.. enthusiasts discuss hangers in depth. Hanger is, after all, where are our beloved jackets spend most of their time.

    Jacket Hangers

    I received my Aero hangers today. For me they would be perfect if only they were little bit wider. My jackets' shoulders are about 3-4" wider than the hanger so there is a considerable overhang which might cause some deformation on shoulder area over time. One thing about these hangers is...
