    Dubow 27798 A2 help identify maker

    Hello all, I found this gorgeous jacket at a thrift shop and am trying to identify who made it. I can't find any pics online of any of the known makers using a white size tag so that is my best clue... It fits me very well! Any thoughts? thank you!

    Wanted:size 38 B-10 jacket in Khaki

    Looking for a khaki B-10 with brown mouton in a size 38. Brand not critical although Buzz would be great. I saw an eBay seller that had a version called “Bob Dong” or something and that would be fine too.

    FS:size 38 Custom Aero with “aftermarket” removable sheepskin collar

    Time to admit my style has changed a bit. I haven’t worn this beauty in quite a while and even though I’m sure I will regret it...I’ll give it a shot. Gorgeous Russet Vincenza hide is just barely broken in. Beautifully crafted with a lot of detail. I had the collar made from a hide I bought...

    Nudelman Bros uniform help

    Hello all, I have a bit of a puzzle here. A beautiful wool uniform jacket from the Portland Railway Light and Power company, made by Nudelman Bros. Im trying to verify the age of the piece but cannot find any reference to early Nudelman labels, just a 50’s one and a 60s one. Mine is actually...

    Custom russet vincenza bootlegger

    Thank you to Carrie at Thurston Bros and Julie Leich at Aero for helping me with my idea for a 1930s "aviator" style jacket. My first impressions are that the Vincenza hide has much more body that I expected (from the swatch) and that I am very pleased with the fit. It is going to take a while...

    Levis type 1 in leather

    Does anyone know who might make this early "blouse" type 1 jacket in leather? I see Whitefeather does it in cotton duck and a magazine shows "high large" which I think is an unobtanium Japanese brand but is there an "affordable" option with custom fitting? My wife really likes it but she will...

    Worn in jacket Thread

    I came across the "russet vincenza sheen after a year" thread and there was some call for a bartender to re-name it which I don't think happened so...here it is. As we all know leather jackets improve with age so it is actually MORE important to document what they look like as they progress...

    Custom Dehen/Settlemeiers Skull sweater project

    I posted this in general attire a while back but have heard back from Dehen and Settlemeiers, both local here in Portland, OR. With a min order of 36 pcs we can order a "copy" of the skull rugby jersey in Dehn's heavy worsted wool crewneck. Here is a pic of the crew and a pic of the original...

    regrettable leather jacket choices...

    I had a 2 tone grey/charcoal "Thriller" jacket in the earliest of 80's. Anyone else have a leather jacket they wish they never did? I am asking friends and family if anyone has a photo. In the meantime here is my first cross zip. A couple of fickle years after the Thriller era.

    Would anyone wear this sweater?

    I have a friend who owns a local varsity jacket company and they can easily make a patch like this. I am considering just buying a black or navy turtleneck from a thrift shop and sewing it on but I also happen to live within 1/2 mile of Dehen... so if there is interest maybe we can make it...

    anyone ever try these guys?

    http://independencebrothers.com/about/ Their double rider in goat, custom fitted for under $300 sounds interesting...and they sound open to customization. Just curious. Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!

    Russet Vincenza anyone?

    Does anyone here own a jacket in Aeros Russet vincenza and if so would you mind posting pics of it "broken in" or breaking in as it were? Thanks!

    Another Aero Bootlegger thread...

    I am heading up to Seattle on Saturday to meet with Carrie and get fitted for a BL. This is the jacket that will replace the DD Beck which fell through. I will be going with the STF "premier" version for fit reasons and I do love the arc on the back yoke. I am considering many of their...

    Thinking about custom jacket...

    Ive been looking, researching and pondering for over a year. Dave can't make the Beck in my size (too small) so my quest continues. I like the early "aviator" look of a simple double rider in brown. I also really like a sheepskin or mouton collar. I just came across this Schott on eBay and...

    Langlitz proxy

    LL is very close to my woodshop. They have a pretty huge selection of used jackets in the shop at any time. If anyone is interested in one of their styles in a specific size Id be happy to pop in to see if there are any on the used rack. The prices aren't exactly cheap, seem to be $500-800 or...

    Planning a Diamond Dave Beck 333

    So excited to say Im planning to order a Beck from Dave as soon as he contacts me for a deposit. I'm leaning towards Goat as I want the drape and lighter, slightly thinner leather. Also definitely want brown vs. black. I received the goat samples and prefer the red cast over the yellow cast...
