My two cents. If you are getting your first aero then use Thurston Bros. It may cost a little more but I would pay the extra for a guaranteed good fit, a it's really worthwhile investment/insurance policy as fqhh is not forgiving. A poor fitting jacket is money wasted.

I have used this proxy successfully before. Has fees but was good. http://sutocorp.com/

stellar fit stellar jacket, right up there

Apologies if I wasn't clear but I was referring to the Alexander leathers swatches

it is the oils the fqhh isn't a pull up leather I am assuming

Nah unfortunately he has said he can't do that due to fabric costs, which is believable given the weight of the fabric. Plus the heavier denims are usually more labour intensive.

In addition to the thread on Gustin I am wondering what the feeling is on here about having a thread that discusses other lower priced selvedge jeans. I did mention Lawless earlier to see if anyone had purchased from them. However, I don't want to seem like a shill. Therefore I wanted to get...

Gustin have some 23oz going at the moment but I think that as you are in Europe by the time you pay customs it may not be worth the price discount that they offer. That aside I wouldn't advise going with gustin's more expensive jeans first, you need to get your size and style figured out with...

I was wondering if anyone has had experience purchasing from them before, they are in Phoenix Arizona? They are currently running a kickstarter campaign, but seem to have been selling for a while before that. There model is somewhat similar to Gustin, well not really, at least in terms of...

thanks for your perspective Dan. It seems like many things vintage the Japanese have a mortgage on some of the artists.

thanks for the insight
