     Just for my own education what does "is flame" mean? Good/Bad/something else?

     Ignore the tagged size and look at the measurements. Most of those jackets, down and shearlying, are going to be wide for two reasons. The first is that it's winter so you layer, the second is that the material foundations of the jacket are wide. In my case I'm a 50 in most NC that's...

     That's a bit of a can of worms. The breakup with Aero Leather was extremely problematic. I'm a bit surprised that Nigel Cabourn went with them for the next sheepskins. You're right though. The widely considered best actual jacket maker did go with Alexander after the split. She made my...

    Yea they don't play around. I spent much of the day looking at SNS and howling knits in person. None are in the league when it comes to density or warmth or I think quality. Good and bad thing. Sometimes you want something thin for layering. :slayer:I've been eyeing the cartigan for a while...

    I'm assuming bottom of collar as that's the normal standard. Just send a quick email. That s a nice quick but important question.

     That's because they use the traditional English system of measurement where the number is the PtP. Hence 40 is 20 inches across. Keep that in mind Frigiliana a store 40r is going to be a real 42 or more likely 44. I have the linen three button and the mediums perfect for my 39 inch chest...

    That models a bit on the thin size! You'll notice that a 40 at SEH Kelly is a 40 inch Chest. They use the old school style of measurements (that I wish everyone used). None of this 40r means 44-46 stuff. The Knits give a bit but keep in mind the jumpers are way thick. They don't play around but...

    It's a two person business. Just email them with the heads up.

    I'm in complete agreement about the ventile. It's a great material. I have one of his skyliners from last year in the waxed cotton (supposedly waxed) and it's just such a pain to keep dry. A ventile down jacket would just be at a next level.

    I'm 6' with a 39 chest and the mediums have fit perfectly. I've found the measurements to be very accurate. Those knits are thick with a bit of stretch. I've tried them on and I just couldn't figure where I'd be cold enough to need it! I think the cardigan is a bit thinner and if they ever make...

    I hate to be to much of a thread resurrecter but I was wondering if anyone had some reviews for Tweed Addict? Vastly smaller company then some of the ones mentioned over on Savile Row but I'd like to get a sense of some options in the wonderful world of tweed.

    I think is saw a mention of a natural shell cordovan service boot for a Germany company called 10 oz. Anyone else heard of it? I'd love to see pics. Didn't even know natural shell existed.

     Sure. The 110 looks very much like a pair of Whites semi-dress. Large rounded toe and a classic old school workwear boot. The 2040 is narrower and, I think, is the standard last over on the viberg site. Closer to a dress boot.

    Anyone know if someplace in San Francisco has a couple pair to try on?

    I can see the interest in the peacoat made from a heavier tweed. As is it's a bit light. More along the weight of a good hacking jacket instead of the expected heavy boiled wool. This isn't a coat for braving the north sea! I love it though. The natural colors of the undyed (or mostly undyed?)...
