    Red Walter Dyer crosszip women's size 10

    This is an unusual one! Selling because it's too big on me. Walter Dyer crosszip, made in USA. Women's size 10. A tag inside the pocket seems to indicate it was made by someone named Reeva or Reena. Not sure what the leather is, but it's soft and flexible, more of a fashion leather than a heavy...

    IC/FS/FT: Rare Factory-studded Schott 626VN, slim M

    This is mainly an interest check. As much as I adore this crazy jacket, I'm trying to come to grips with it being too long for me, especially in the arms. Not sure what to ask as far as pricing. Any advice? Last one I saw up for sale went for something crazy a couple years ago. I've been...

    Lost Worlds Cowhide / Horsehide Buco PJ27 Leather Jacket, size small

    Is the length down the front pretty much the same as the back? I'm only 5'4" so thinking this may be too long for me. Actually...sent you message.

    WTB: Cossack-style leather jacket SM/XS/US Wmn 8/Wmn Med

    I'm looking around for a Cossack jacket that would fit me. I'm fairly short, so I like the idea of buttons so I don't have to battle a low zipper. I typically wear a women's US 8 or medium. I've had luck with some men's size S or XS depending on the cut. I had been contemplating a Five Star, but...

    @Marc mndt Where does the elastic attach? It looks like one end is on the interior gusset seam. Does it go all the way across the back to the other side? That's what it looks like to me, but wanted to make sure I understand. Thank you!

    That's such an improvement! Looks like my jacket needs the same thing, I just don't trust myself to not botch the job. Edit: After poking around in the gussets, I'm not feeling any sign of elastic in there. I'm wondering if this jacket doesn't have any.

    I just received a Walter Dyer jacket from eBay. It's made from a super-supple leather and seems to be a pretty good fit for me, but I'm noticing a weird aesthetic issue with the gusset behind the shoulder, particularly on the right side. That extra material wants to poke out and not tuck neatly...

    Haha! I'm contemplating. I just ordered up a red Walter Dyer crosszip off eBay that I'm hoping will be a good fit. I might contact the Kit Karson seller and ask for a doublecheck on those sleeves. Might be a hair short.

    Those measurements look awful close for me...but not sure what I'd do about all those lining holes. I'm on the lookout for a smaller jacket I can wear a bunch.

    Scrunch up your jacket sleeve?

    I'm going against the general opinion here, but I like the look @navetsea is rocking. I do this with my goat Golden Bear crosszip, but I'm a sleeve pusher-upper in general. I think its because I play guitar and can't stand having cuffs and material flopping around near my strings or the guitar...

    Vehicles owned by Outerwear members?

    Nice rides, everyone! I love the diversity. (And also special love to the Prius --my daily driver is an old Prius.) But here's my fun ride, a 1956 DeSoto Fireflite sedan with the 330 Hemi and pushbutton automatic.

    Is it just me or does that have a super-tiny waist?

    Hahaha...I would be way too self-conscious of those pockets to wear that!

    I eyed that one, but I'm not into the back elastic look, so ended up passing, but I thank all of you who put ladies' jackets into this thread! I check them all out.

    Fit check: Are those sleeves too short

    The pics you posted look okay to me with your arms down. Do they seem extremely short to you when you move your arms?
