    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    Yeah Thats probably what I’ll do. I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask if there’s any other makers that do the style. Since it’s pretty rare I didn’t have high expectations

    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    Must have been what caught my eye. When I started this hobby a couple years back for some reason I remember a mid priced (£700-£1300) maker making something exactly like the LW/FW style of Leathertogs B. Kinda sucks because I really want one. Wish Aero or Greg at FL would take a single extra...

    Aero Teamster questions

    I’ve got a Shackleton vest and had an A1 briefly. The buttons are tough at the beginning but definitely softens up with use!

    For some reason I thought I remembered Thedi or Simmons Bilt doing something similar. Glance at their website proved me wrong though.

    Does anyone besides for Lost Worlds and Freewheeler do a Leathertogs B style jacket? I know Himel does something similar with the Chevalier, but I can’t think of/find any else.

    Buzz Rickson or Real Mccoys

    Unfortunately not. Even scaling up for the vintage fitting I'd be a 42, and most likely would have to get the sleevs tailored.

    Eastman A2 Help!

    Sounds good! I'm planning on losing a bit of lockdown weight first before seriously measuring up for an A2. Kind of regret not buying one a couple years ago before the price hikes...

    Buzz Rickson or Real Mccoys

    Hey guys, thank you for all the advice. I'll look into getting a Kersey one. I think BR actually made a Kersey one for that movie Greyhound, according to HP. Would the best place to hunt for a Kersey Pea Coat be on Ebay?

    Buzz Rickson or Real Mccoys

    Hey guys, me again. So aside from an A2, I was looking into pea coats. I wore pea coats growing up in NY, and I always loved it. I was wondering what the biggest differences (if any) are there between Buzz Ricksons Peacoat and the Real McCoys Peacoats (both WWII models). I seem to be able to...

    Eastman A2 Help!

    Hey guys! I'm looking into buying an Eastman A2, I've narrowed it down to the Eastman edition, the Rough Wear 27752, or the Monarch MFG 23378. I'm not very well versed in the A2 repro world, so I'm not quite sure what the differences between these models are, please enlighten me!

    That looks awesome!! I was going to Japan last summer and was just going to pick one up their and ask the shop if they knew anyone locally who could shorten the sleeves but obviously couldn’t. I might just stick to that game plan and see when I can go.

    Very nice review :) For me, I prefer veg tan or CXL. I would get the Freewheelers if my arms weren't short lol

    Yeah, I prefer it more. I really like the Freewheeler Centinela, and I was looking for a slightly more accessible version. Especially if it could be customized since I've got short ass arms. After doing a bit of reading about LW and on his site, I don't think I'm going to give him my business.

    Hahah. I remember liking their designs, I didn't realize so much of their stuff is chrome tan

    YES, Thank you!

    No, as I recall the site was a bit more unrefined, and the writing was very "gung-ho" like "IF YOU WANT THE BEST MOTORCYCLE JACKET YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE" kinda vibe.
