    Brave Star 21.5 oz, True Straight, 33x36

    I got two pairs of these last year and have only worn the one pair. They are new, unworn, tag attached. I have some fade pics below so you can see what they'd turn into. Jeans on the left is the pair I'm selling. Pair in the middle is the same denim after a year of wear. Pair on the right...

    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...

    Aero Bootlegger fit advice for new buy

    Good evening, I'm in the process of finalizing an Aero buy on a new Bootlegger. I am wondering if I can get some advice on the sizing. I've bought and sold several used Aeros over the last few years. The sizing was always wrong. Sleeves (too short, too tight) and shoulders (too tight). Now...

    FS: Aero CR, black steerhide, size 44

    I wanted this to fit me but it's too snug in the arms and shoulders. Antique brass zips Lochlarran wool lining One closed interior pocket P2P: 24" Shoulders: 20 Sleeve: 26 Bottom hem: 20.5 I'd call this very good used condition. Not quite "just worn around the house" as I wore it out a few...

    Did Aero increase their prices today?

    Due to the drop in the British Pound, I was thinking of making a first-ever direct order with Aero yesterday. The base price for what I was looking at was 700 pounds. I came back today and the base is now 840! Similar increases for all jackets too. If this is true, so much for their piddly...

    Aero Cafe Racer for trade: size 44, black Steerhide

    I'm looking to trade this jacket for another Aero. The sizing isn't ideal for me. So I'd even consider a trade for another black CR, if one turned up in a different size. Or a brown one, etc. But generally, a trade, or trade plus cash for other Aero models and colours interest me, tagged...

    Brave Star Double Black Selvedge Denim Jeans, size 32

    I almost always order straight leg denim. I thought I'd try Regular Taper this time out; I wore them for an hour before deciding I really prefer straight leg. So, they are 13.5 oz Japanese denim, double black with red selvedge ID, size 32 waist (measured across, more like 17"X2 = 34), 35"...

    Looking to trade an Aero CR, 44, for a 46 (or larger 44)

    I have a nice black Aero CR, brass hardware, wool tartan lining, steerhide. Like so many other Aeros, the fit is not ideal for me. I am curious if anyone has a CR of their own that is too large for their needs, and would like to trade? Longshot, I know. I have lots of pics if someone has...

    Where to get longer selvedge jeans? (34" +)

    I'm late to the selvedge denim game. About 2 years ago, after some internet research, I ordered a few pairs of Brave Stars jeans, knowing the fit would be off. I determined that 32's are my size in Brave Stars and returned the others that didn't fit. I found Brave Stars a great deal. Made in...

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

    I have a sort of odd request/idea. In August, 2021, I was looking for leather jackets on Etsy, and stumbled across a vendor who appeared to have some really awesome stuff. ZillLeather, it was called. The storefront reminded me a lot of Five Star. Many pictures of great-looking custom-made...

    What does this incredible jacket look like unbuttoned?

    I saw this on Ebay, and love it. It would be on its way to me if the chest was 2 inches bigger: Leather 40s WW2 HORSEHIDE GERMAN LUFTWAFFE Officers Motorcycle Biker Jacket Coat | eBay There's no pic of it unbuttoned, and the seller refuses to send me any. I can't find any pics of this model...

    Five Star / Five * Bootlegger -style repro jacket, 46

    This jacket was my first attempt at a custom sized jacket. I've decided to sell as it's not as trim as I'd prefer it to be. It would be great for layers, but I wanted it a little tighter, so I actually ordered another, but smaller. I basically asked 5* to make me an Aero Bootlegger that has...

    Which pair of Brave Star jeans should I hem?

    Seeing that Cone Mills shut down, I stocked up on several pairs of Brave Star jeans the past few months. Standard 36" length. I'm wanting to hem one for a different look so I don't have to cuff them all. But I'm hesitant because Cone denim is no more, so if I regret my choice, I can't get...

    FS: Brave Star heavyweight double black selvege denim jeans, sz 33

    Greetings gents, Last month I was desperate to order some Brave Star denim in my size - they produce in batches and routinely sell out. I took a chance that size 33 would fit me (I know now I'm a 32, end of story). I tried on these jeans twice and wore them around my house for about 20...
