    Aero Bootlegger fit advice for new buy

    I forgot to mention, it's tagged a 42, and I asked for the sleeves from a 44 Bootlegger. They have 8.75" biceps. If you look at my pic in the first post, those sleeves are 8.25 and too tight.

    Aero Bootlegger fit advice for new buy

    Well, it came and I'm happy. The collar folded or something in transit, so it won't lay flat just yet. The rest is loosening quickly; break in is much harder with selvedge jeans. I wanted a fit that could give me a bit of room for a light sweater, but still get away with a t-shirt. I wasn't...

    Any interest in setting up an Etsy store for a Pakistani jacket maker?

    It looks actually like he had a bad experience, so I doubt he's shilling. I never wound up buying or anything myself. I decided if I wanted any more Pakistani jackets I'd just go with Five Star again.

    Any interest in setting up an Etsy store for a Pakistani jacket maker?

    I didn't know the ins and outs of this before I asked, and now regret posting about it - it was a dumb idea. Live and learn!

    Yet another excellent jacket of yours. After a wild Five Star binge it seems you are unloading your collection?

    How likely is it to find vintage clothing in larger sizes

    Thanks Will. As mentioned earlier in the thread, although you might find the right chest size, the sleeves and length are issues. 24". Blast it. Arms and torsos weren't shorter 80 years ago...it was likely the style, with long gloves.

    How likely is it to find vintage clothing in larger sizes

    This is true. Those dang sleeves. 2 years ago on the FL classifieds a guy had this amazing 1930's horsehide Windward jacket. It looked like an original Aero Bootlegger. But the sleeves were a ridiculous 23.5", I think. Far too short. The fit pics of the guy selling it were unfortunately as...

    How likely is it to find vintage clothing in larger sizes

    When the pandemic began, with lots of downtime at home in front of the computer, I developed a sudden interest in unique, heritage, and vintage clothing. Ironic, given that for many, many months, the only place anything got regular wear was in my living room or basement office. So for the...

    Brave Star Double Black Selvedge Denim Jeans, size 32

    This thread is beginning to sound like a sales pitch, ha ha...but totally agree: -USA made (100 percent in the case of Cone Mills deadstock pairs) -chain stitched hems, waist -leather patch -cool issues of many denim types An issue, but why they are much cheaper is a difficult return policy...

    Brave Star Double Black Selvedge Denim Jeans, size 32

    I agree. I keep finding reasons to get more. "Well, my denim jacket is a heavyweight, maybe I should get this light one for warmer weather just in case. And also a black one..."

    Brave Star Double Black Selvedge Denim Jeans, size 32

    I think I have 12 pairs of BS jeans? Plus three jackets. I'm a huge fan. Ironically I wair an extremely faded pair of 21.5 oz BS heavies almost all the time when I should be developing fades on the other pairs. But this one pair is so soft inside now!

    Brave Star Double Black Selvedge Denim Jeans, size 32

    Yeah...I wore them just long enough so I couldn't return them and they cost twice as much as I'm asking now.
