Morning all on this rainy day (on the east coast). I come to you with a question as I've been looking over my jackets and considering the new year.
I have what I'd describe as a barrel chest, but I'm relatively short (5'7) and with relatively muscular arms. Every jacket I have, if it fits me in...
I was gifted a barely used Dehen 1920 1/4 moto zip.. And its just a weeeee big on me. I was wondering, has anyone tried throwing it on a cold cycle and drying for like 5 minutes to get it to shrink? Essentially, I need to shrink it like 1/2 a "size". Hoping to hear thoughts... otherwise, I...
Just saw the movie Lucy (pretty "meh") but one main character was wearing a very interesting jacket; a black A-2 (no epaulets) with an action back. Attached are some stills I grabbed (not the best quality); this style interests me. For sure its more fashion than accurate repro, but I wonder if...

Hi all,
I am a college student and really into getting a jacket, but I don't want to spend $ on something new - that isn't good quality. I much prefer to find a good jacket on ebay (or in New york city, where i live) that is used, but of good quality. I have been reading lots of threads, and it...
I'm interested in buying the Vanson Stadium (here) because I like the combination of casual/riding, and especially because I like jackets that have those kind of raglan shoulders, they always look better on me, and its fun to ride on them without the shoulder seam rising. Does anyone have any...
Hi all!
First of all, I'm a long time lurker and have learned a lot through these forums. I registered because I'm looking to replace an old jacket I've had for about six years and don't know how to describe it. Its duck canvas and, importantly, has a knit neck (I've heard it referred to as a...
