Finally, a scientific study on leather jackets!
Oh no Worf. I am guessing your son has either graduated or is in his last year of college. At this point he showed be realizing how much you and his mother "have learned" in the past four years! Today I dropped our youngest off at college - you are scaring me!- Gromulus

Best hat or hats to take to Disney
As an owner of many felts, Panamas, and poly Akubras I concur the the choice of a poly Akubra (Capricorn, Rink, etc) to deal with the random showers and heat and humidity of Florida. What I fail to grasp is how one would keep their hat on while on the rides: keep one hand on your head at all... -
1930 Slim Fit Half Belt Back Modification
That's the ticket. Start doing dead-lifts, rows, and lat pull-downs and the back will fit much better. :)- Gromulus

Fits of Aero A2 lineup
Same issue here. Which styles/contracts are the most "V" shaped? Too often "slim" means shallow in the chest, narrow in the shoulders, and skinny in the arms.- Gromulus

What size flight jacket do you wear?
Actually Jimmy Stewart had a very small build. At 6'3" he weighed 143# and had a hard time entering the service as a new recruit since he didn't make the 148# weight cut-off. Supposedly he gained some weight to gain accpetance but most say he used his influence to get a "pass". Anyhow, I am...- Gromulus

The Cap Faction
Very nice Cordova line cap Eric! I am anxiously awaiting mine (along with another wool one ordered in April). Hope to get some head time with the linen this summer. -
B-3 or ANJ-4
I concur (which is why I chose the ANJ-4 several years ago). If a more supple/flexible jacket is required, goatskin can also be used instead of HH for the facings. Lost Worlds and FlightJackets use goat instead of horse.- Gromulus

What are your favorite Aero designs?
I only have three Aero jackets but without a doubt my Brown Chromexcel Bootlegger is my favorite (with my half-belt coming in second). Even when I peruse the Aero website or see fits pics on the forum the Bootlegger always catches my eye.- Gromulus

Akubra Bushman Color suggestions
My opinion is just the opposite of Tom's. I like Akubra's Moonstone color and own it in two hats: Stylemaster and FED IV. The Bushman in Nullarbor Tan is my "go to" hiking/camping hat. I would not like this style in Moonstone. IMO the Moonstone works better as a "dressier" hat while brown... -
All of a sudden.... she woke up!
Some funny (and very familiar) stories here! My wife doesn't have an issue with my purchasing $, but.............she does not understand why a man "needs so many hats, leather jackets, shoes, etc.". When I think objectively about it I must agree. I only have five or six leather jackets and I...- Gromulus

Best time to go outside in the sun and who uses an umbrella when it's sunny?
While I would (and do) wear a hat instead of using an umbrella when it rains, a man using an umbrella (parasol) to ward off the sun would be asking for some "unwanted" attention in most areas. Evan in my biggest and baddest days I wouldn't go that route.
