    Fit check: Aero Highwayman 36

    (Perhaps a bit late, but..) Is that from tightness across the chest or from the width of the shoulders? I have wide shoulders for my height, somewhat of a short trapezoid shape. (5’7”, 40” chest, with a 20” shoulder separation and 35” waist) Unfortunately it makes finding jackets and long...

    Yep. That’s the kind of thing I’d like to avoid. I’m all for reasonable protections for both parties. But, I came across a few reports of that exact thing happening because PP leans more toward the buyer. Could that be why Ebay no longer deals with PP?

    WTS Schott 618 size 40

    Ha ha. I was so distracted by it that I didn’t even notice. It’s exactly what I was looking to buy before I got the chance to try on a bunch of different Schotts at their LA store.

    @Claybertrand @Kunja When you sell to members here what payment exchange method do you use?

    WTS Schott 618 size 40

    Oooo, tempting. I just wish I had “Schott proportions”. A 40 is about as close as I could get in a Schott, but the length, both body and arms, would be too long on me. Besides, I’m in the queue for a custom Aero PHWM. I’m actually surprised this hasn’t been scooped up already, good looking jacket.

    I’m not terribly happy about Ebay’s policy of closing inactive accounts. I never sold anything and am not the typical US Consumer, so mine got closed and apparently within days someone from Barbados reregistered the username. I opened the account in circa 2005. sigh

    Preferred selling platform

    Hey folks, I see listings from Ebay, Grailed, Poshmark, and possibly others, but; What is your favorite platform to sell from? Also, any thoughts on which platform has the best protection balance between buyer and seller would be awesome. I feel like this should be in a FAQ or something...

    Pockets: deep experiences

    I keep my wallet in the front pocket also and do the random wallet pat on my pants pocket, just to be sure. Side note, Saddleback Leather minimal front pocket wallet is awesome.

    Pockets: deep experiences

    I’ve started a custom order through Carrie @ Thurston Bros and find myself deep in the pocket debate, between myself and the posts I could find that talk pockets. Surprisingly there are a lot of mentions of pockets and the love/hate for them, but not many pure experiences with them. I’d love...

    Headed to Schott LA

    Ha Ha Ha I’ve actually been on Thurston Bros, Aero, and Vanson this afternoon thinking the exact same thing. What did you end up with @TheDonEffect?

    Headed to Schott LA

    Wow, thanks all for the info everyone! Wish I could have posted earlier, but I slept on signing up and it took a while to approve the sign up. Anyway… Been in and out and have some thinking to do. I did try the cow and horse in each of the 618 and 613 and can confirm the cow 613 in 38 was a...

    Headed to Schott LA

    Stopped into Self Edge. Slim selection for sure. The few Finecreek they had near my size were way off in some areas. The arms were all too slim on me, not that I have huge guns but apparently more than most that can wear Finecreek. Heading home empty handed but armed with info about how Schott...

    Headed to Schott LA

    That’s one I really wanted to try. Seems I’m between a 38 and 40. With a light, borrowed sweatshirt the 38 feels a bit snug. Not sure it will relax enough to make it easy sailing. The 40 just looks wrong on me. One could say the 40 “fits” me but I don’t think it looks right. Kinda like I’m...

    Headed to Schott LA

    Hey folks, I’m new around here but not new to JAS (Jacket Acquisition Syndrome). I happen to be near the Schott LA store so I’m heading there now. (I’m actually just next door having a coffee before heading into the shop. I was hoping to get some recommendations on other stores to check in...
