Freenote Cloth Tobacco waxed canvass

Thanks, Jib. It’s a No. 8. I have never asked about the maker. The puller basically looks like a paperclip. Very reduced. Glad, I went for it too. Those „period correct“ No. 5‘s can get messy after one or two pints...

That looks great, the No 8 is just the right size. I feel the same with the 5's it looks great but a little flimsy at times. I have a 10 on my cxl jacket that works excellent but it's a little too much

Looks great! Congrats on this again! I just noticed the beefy main zipper, what make and size is that? Looks super cool!




Love the shawl collar action here and the boots is just awesome! Looks like you have a little photo bomber on the background too!




That leather is glorious! Great job on wearing this so well! Up top!




Wow! Talk about grains right off the bat! FL I tell you!



That jacket is looking even better! The fit is just superb as with someone who knows how to work Aero's odd measurement system! I think you made the correct call on getting nickel hardware, that looks fantastic!






Love the jacket and the leather looks special! Thanks for sharing!

@Jin431 Thanks, man! Yeah, my little 4-year-old photo bomber always keeps me laughing and making me happy and satisfied

Please share with me your insight about this outfit that I wore today. The thing is I had received some snarky comments about how I look in this outfit on a Facebook page. My question is: In your professional opinion, is it as bad as they made out to be? Any input will be appreciated.

The sleeves are at least two inches too long. Tucked in tshirt +1. I think a nice belt would complete the look.

Maybe a little too long overall, but by no means bad.

agree with @Marc mndt

overall a clean look just too long on the sleeves. Is it possible to zip them to effectively shorten them?

Schott 370 today

I will have to lose the vest later, will be in upper 60s F this afternoon

I was walking down the street with my gf, wearing my ELMC californian, when a guy approached us and complemented me on my jacket. He even asked about the maker and where he could get one.

When we walked on I said to my gf "see, people do notice I'm wearing nice jackets". She just chuckled.

I need to purchase a few vests like this. I dig the look. What brand is this? I have been looking at some of the Filson.

Its Filson, super practical and robust, highly recommend. Got it from @Corky Corcovado

Thanks, I tried zipping the sleeves, but the bulges made it look worse than unzipped and I’m not prepared to take the risk of letting a tailor to shorten it, not knowing what the outcome is gonna be like, I might ruin a beautiful jacket.

There you go. Hows the sizing on them? I putter between a 42 and 44. Gracias.

This is a 38, I’m pretty typical 40. It works well as a slim waistcoat style vest in this case. My understanding is Filson now sells only S M L etc instead

Much appreciated. That would make me a 42 then, as typically I am a 44. I’ve got a saved search on eBay and will focus on vests with numbered sizing. Thanks.

The hunt is on! Good luck

The thing is I had received some snarky comments about how I look in this outfit on a Facebook page.

Were the snarky comments just about the fit?

The fit is not all that bad, yes the sleeves are long but not deserving of snarky comments. I personally wouldn't wear those sneakers with this outfit but I don't think it looks bad overall.

Not a professional here but I do know people can be just plain mean.
I do like the relaxed look of the Outfit from the jacket/shirt/jeans/shoes, that's similar to how I dress if I'm not posting photos here. The jacket looks great on the body even with the longer length but as others have mentioned the sleeves are way too long.

I was walking down the street with my gf, wearing my ELMC californian, when a guy approached us and complemented me on my jacket. He even asked about the maker and where he could get one.

The jacket appears to fit very well outside the sleeve length. I would have them shortened. A belt is an absolute must, even if nobody sees it. I would not tuck in my t shirt, even at ***point, personally. A nice pair of leather Chuck Taylors and you will be right as rain imho.
