I sold the brown one to Scott M and I planned on keeping the black CWU, wore it in America on my trip, and then winq wanted it so I gave it to him in LA. :eek:

allz I know is that you need an aviator style jacket to complement your moto jacket. The yin/yang of manhood ;)

black jutneck and brown intarsia are now dried after washing them

they look a lot better as they are now more matte looking than before and they both drape better


thanks for posting the before/after wash pics, would love to see the final result

This is good to know - it was a newer one, and the measurements looked like they'd work out - from the ebay listings I've read, it seems like sizing might be a bit...scattered? Is this true? I've seen 48's through 52's that looked like they'd fit.


The 52 I tried on was huge on me as well. Don't do it! In fact I didn't really like the cut at all for my body type. Maybe that is because it was box fresh but it looked pretty bad on me tbqh

the mmm 5 zip in black leather is a grail piece.


I saw a recent season one in size 52 yesterday at MAC in san francisco, fwiw.

Shouldn't 'grail' be used for items that you'd drop a ridiculous amount of money on as it's so hard to find? 5zips can be had relatively easy........


Everybody seems to throw that word out now lol.
