    Refund on import duties - Sweden to UK. Advice needed.

    I must say it's quite strange that not many people from the UK can chime in on this. Do we not buy (and return) expensive jackets from outside the UK? Surely we buy more than just Aero Leathers and Lewis Leathers.

    Jackets with fur collars

    Any downsides to a fur collar? I've never owned a jacket with one, but somebody told me that if it rains, you get a wet neck if you ever pop your collar, so they don't buy them with fur collars. Anybody have experience with this?

    Refund on import duties - Sweden to UK. Advice needed.

    I'm in the UK. I'm about to drop about £1,000 on a couple of jackets from a Swedish retailer. Off the shelf jackets, not custom. However, I want to know how easy it is to get a refund on the import duties should I decide to return either of them. The carrier is UPS. Has anybody in the UK been...

    How to develop/expand this style?

    I dressed up for a 70s themed party, but I got some positive comments so I might try and spin it out :) I think with this look that there is a thin line between pulling off some cold swag, or looking like a complete idiot... not sure I managed to stay entirely on the right side of the line...

    Decent cashmere in UK?

    Can anybody please tell me where to find good quality cashmere in UK? Specifically looking for cashmere hoodies but open to any kind of cashmere. I've checked out John Lewis cashmere hoodie and the quality seems a bit cheap for the price (£150). I know cashmere is expensive but I don't expect...

    Field Leathers

    Field Leathers has really taken off. I remember when he posted his introduction in here. How do they compare to the more established brands we discuss on here?

    Vegecow Lewis Leathers quality

    What I will say about the lightning jacket is that the pockets are completely unusable (same as on the Monza). It is its biggest flaw in my opinion. Contrast it with the Bronx jacket (also made in tight fit) - a huge, practical map pocket that can take anything you put in it.

    Vegecow Lewis Leathers quality

    Coming to this thread late. As someone who has agonised over lewis leathers sizing (although not the lightning), one measurement which isn't given on those charts is the arm holes. I purchased Monza in size 40 and had an inch added to the chest (I'm 41, usually take 42 but I wanted something on...

    Favourite sunglasses brands?

    Randolphs appear to be the brand for aviators, certainly. Persols I'm avoiding due to the Luxottica ownership.

    Favourite sunglasses brands?

    I'm finding most brands are owned by Luxottica which is overpriced garbage. I like B&L Ray Bans but it's hard to find vintage in good condition much of the time. What other vintage/used and new brands do you like? Avoiding cheap crap hopefully. Anything Japanese?

    I cannot get into midnight blue because it's just too close to black to be visually intriguing for me.

    There's a shop called Black and Blue but it's not in Amsterdam. But maybe you can get on the train if you are so inclined. https://www.black-and-blue.nl/
