Thank you all for the input. Guess I will be heading to South Coast Plaza in the near future!

KawaiiT, check the ingredients. If it has mink oil or neatsfoot oil in it. I would try a little on a hidden spot. If it’s some weird synthetic ingredients, I wouldn’t do it.

Good to know
My main concern with it is Im in UK so it rains a lot! Wont get much chance to wear it and its not cheap so maybe I should leave it and get a leather one instead,

it's not good to wear any leather in the rain. Better off getting a Yves Salomon or Moncler jacket first

For the people with leather jackets in this forum, how often do you guys clean your jackets? And do you send it to leather specialists only or are there other ways of cleaning.

Picked up this season’s Western Corduroy shirt in size large. Didn’t work for me. Let me know if you’re interested in buying.

That color looks nothing like on the sales picture.

Anyone have any suggestion on SLP suiting sizing? I am getting married in October and was considering buying a Le Smoking set. Figure I could get use out of the blazer after the wedding. I am typically a slim tailored 42L in american sizing. Any insight from anyone on here who owns a hedi/slp suit would be awesome.

Side note*
Anyone selling python santiags/wyatts in 43? While I am at it lol.
I have the 2016 python devons but they just don't do it for me.
I don't think the SLP suits are worth the premium... Ford could be good; I am a big fan of Isaia... suits don't hold value so I would look at going secondary market... only thing is you have to know what brands fit you and in what sizes.

Is it just me or do the gabardine Teddy jackets fit smaller than the virgin wool ones?

Saw this on sale at the Nordstrom website and they said size up, is that true? Also, what didn’t you like about it, just curious. I’ve been eyeing it but normally if it’s not a strong ‘want’ from the get go it’s not a must have for me, although plenty of items I’ve owned have grown on me after purchasing.
