    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Here’s another naive question: what weight of cotton would you choose for a lining? I think I’d like a selvedge due to it’s potential balance of breathability and robustness, but of course the range is vast, from gossamer shirtings to some of the ridiculous denims that IH et al indulge in. FYI...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    So nice, I inherited a gorgeous green rider from a brother in law a few years ago (it sparked my interest in leather jackets actually) but I just couldn’t get on with the neck position, too far forward and I would get headaches whenever I wore it. So I gave it to another brother in law and he...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Maybe I just don’t have the gravitas to pull it off. Why do you think the beeswax makes the jacket less breathable? It's not like the jacket is drowned in wax like a Barbour. It's just a thin application. I would assume that any added wax application would make leather less breathable, though...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    There’s a lot to love about Thedi but the finishes I see on most of their jackets seem overwrought to me; the washing pre-ages them and the waxing makes them less breathable, I’d rather put my own stamp on whatever one I buy. I understand that they are available without the extra treatment, is...

    Custom Aero Leather D-1 size 36 $500

    Hello I have a brand new custom Aero Leather D-1 for sale, just received last week. Beautiful seal shearling with Russet trim. I have a 36” chest and 16” shoulders and it feels too tight in terms of moving my arms around while wearing a T shirt, room inside is okay-ish. Overall just way too...

    Could request a prewash from Shawn before the hood is assembled.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Further to my D-1 from Aero - I goofed. Asked for an inch off the arms and length, definitely didn’t need it off the arms! It’s also a little tight for my intended use, may try to resell…

    The A-1 pockets

    Oh I see, looked like some of their pre-stressing work.

    The A-1 pockets

    That's a beauty alright, is it Thedi?

    The A-1 pockets

    Milspec definitely not required, I just want something that will look ok on me! The boob look is something to watch out for, for sure. That's the reason I'd want smaller pockets up top, or even just one demure one.

    The A-1 pockets

    While I have you guys on the line, what are your opinions on the best collars for narrow shoulders? I've read contradictory advice viz width of lapels, with some (suit) makers claiming wider is best for narrow frames and others saying the opposite. Then there's the close knit collars of the A-1...
