For sale are these beautiful M-43 service shoes by Buzz Rickson's. Bought them brand new and they were pretty snug but I believed that they will stretch a little and I will get a perfect fit. It didn't happen. They give pain to my feet if I wear them for more than 10 minutes. Size - 7E I...

I’ll trust you because you have more expertise with these jackets than I do. I’m just judging by the ones I’ve seen online or had an opportunity to see IRL.

Hello guys! I’m planning to purchase my first double riders jacket and specifically looking at J-24 in a new fit. The problem is that I’m not sure about the size I should go with. I don’t have any specialized stores in my country and if I order jacket from abroad I’ll have to pay almost half...
