    New RMC A-2 Kakishibu

    Hey y’all, been gone a while. Here’s a banging return. Just picked up a Kakishibu (persimmon dyed) A-2 from S&S NYC. The jacket is extremely comfortable, though my neck is still too thick for the neck hooks. The shoulders and collar are a little stiff at the moment (as to be expected) but...

    Field Leathers Buco J82

    This is an overdue and belated review/photos of this wonderful jacket that Greg at Field Leathers had made for me. Theres a bit of a story that comes with this jacket. If any of y'all have been following my threads, you'd know I was in Scotland for the past few years, which gave me access to...

    Y'2 HR-55 Horse D-Pocket Double Rider

    In my trip to New York last week I purchased this Y'2 jacket at Standard and Strange NYC, along with the Ooe Yofukuten OA-1s. Gen helped me with the fit which I love. This is a nice horsehide that will fade to brown through wear. I hope my reputation for my hair game has continued to be upheld...

    Midnight Blue CXL Hooch Hauler

    I wanted a Hooch Hauler for a long time, as it is absolutely my favorite model and after seeing Ton’s Halfbelt in Midnight Blue I had to get it in the same color. The wonderful Chloe at Aero helped me with this order and request. I think they absolutely nailed it. The lighting isn’t perfect in...

    New Aero D-1

    I've actually wanted a real shearling jacket from Aero for a long while, but I knew I absolutely did not have the patience for the extra long wait for the custom order. Luckily, this D-1 in my size popped up and I snagged it asap. I was a bit worried that the 25" sleeve would be a bit long on...

    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!

    Need help recalling a brand

    I remember sometime two years ago checking out a brand that was touted to make "true" motorcycle jackets, in that they made the jackets out of heavy FQHH CXL. I can't seem to recall the brand anymore, if I remember correctly they were based in America and semi-custom and they had a webpage that...

    Aero Leather Indian Ranger

    This jacket is very special to me. I originally got into leather jackets in the first place because my father was a biker, and he passed on his crosszip jacket to me. Looking at it now it's just a ratty old chrome tanned crosszip probably bought from some random shop, but when he gave it to me I...

    Aero Indian Ranger back length question

    Hi everyone. I was wondering about what the proper back length is for the jacket like the Indian Ranger, is it supposed to sit at the top of the waistband of jeans? Middle of the belt loop? I feel like below the belt loop would be too long. I have a cheap double rider style motorcycle jacket...

    New Aero Leather August

    I think I mentioned before that I had an Aero A1 in Seal Vicenza being altered currently. I decided that since I already had a perfect A2 in Seal Vicenza and a Rockafella in the works in Blackened Brown for me, I don’t really need the A1. Instead I told Aero they could keep the A1 and I picked...

    Vintage Anderson's 1930's Car Coat

    Another one from the Aero Leather Galashiel's show room. According to Denny it's a car coat from the 1930's although I couldn't find any more information regarding it on the internet (maybe Ken could weigh in...) It's quite long as it literally hangs down to my mid calf, the rest of the jacket...

The pit to pit is 21.75", and the sleeve length is 25" and luckily it fits me perfectly at 5'10 and 175-180 pounds (depending). Just got...
