    Cockpit USA B-3 Fit

    Sure. With the jacket zipped and lying flat, the chest is 23" and the waist with the buckles undone is 21". If I push down on the jacket compressing the fur so it lies flatter, or stretch it across the front slightly by pulling on it, the chest measures 24" and the waist is 22". I use the third...

    Vintage Chelsea Boots by Hartt shoes - size 8.5 - never worn

    These are rare vintage Chelsea boots made by Hartt Shoes in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada (my hometown). From the numbers in the shoes I assume they were made in 1985. For the history of Hartt shoes check out this link - https://www.myhartt.com/history/shoe_boot.htm I bought these unworn a...

    Cockpit USA B-3 Fit

    Thanks. When I was in search for a winter jacket I really wanted a hood as I prefer them over hats. And I always wanted a B-3 so I was happy to find that Cockpit made a decent version with a hood. While there are other hooded ones out there, Cockpit was the best that I could find. I realize this...

    Cockpit USA B-3 Fit

    I did send the size 40 back and got a size 38 in early January. While the size 38 does fit better, I think a size 36 would have been the best fit for me. However, with $140 in shipping with each return and customs hassles, I decided to keep this one as it is satisfactory. It is a good loose fit...

    Nice!

    Himel Brothers Leather Co.

    The only thing that turned me off about the Himel originally was that the sleeve zippers were unlined, but now that I am used to it, I prefer it that way. I find the sleeves very narrow at the wrist, which I like as it keeps the arms from flopping around. And when the sleeve zippers are done up...

    Himel Brothers Leather Co.

    Thanks - we got blasted with snow and cold last week - and then it warmed up enough on the weekend to pull out the Kensington. It had been a while, so I had to get my daughter to snap a picture. Even after 4 years I can't say enough about this jacket. Great materials and construction. Some day I...

    Hmmm, now I am wondering if I should go down 2 sizes?

    Cockpit USA B-3 Fit

    I just purchased a Cockpit USA B-3 through the mail. My chest measurement is 41", but that is mostly because I have a wide upper back for my size and not a huge chest. I am 5'9'', weigh 150 lbs, my waist is 32" and I have narrow shoulders. Based on my measurements, a size 40 was suggested. Also...

    Denim Jackets - New or Vintage

    I thought it was time to have a thread dedicated to denim jackets – new or vintage (unless there is one and I missed it?). I will start with my recent eBay score. A NOS 1970’s era GWG Cowboy Kings Jacket. For those not familiar with GWG, it was a Canadian clothing company that made jeans and...

    That would be a shame if they don't restock these - from what I saw they sold pretty quick.

    No problem - my present footwear is: Reebok sneakers 9.5 Saucony sneakers 10 Sketchers shoes 9.5 Clarks dress shoes 9.5 Wolverine Stockton 9.5 Whites Semi dress 8.5E The Vibergs were listed as 8.5 and are stamped 8.5 with no letter designation so I am assuming they are a D width. The footbed...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    I browse around quite a bit on the lounge, but I don't post that much. But I would like to share some pictures of my latest purchase - Viberg Chromexcel Engineer boots. I have wanted these for a while, but they are not always available, and the price is a little steep. I just happened to check...
