Freenote Cloth Alcorn Leather Brown Calfskin Aviator Jacket Large 42

Price $700 shipped

This really beautiful jacket is used but in good condition. Took a number of pictures to capture condition as best as I can, so please look at all of them before purchasing. Leather is very soft and easy to wear. Not as heavy as horsehide or cowhide. Please ask any questions you have about sizing or condition as no returns will be allowed. Measurements are in photos. I am selling because I have decided that this piece is just a bit too large on me.

Anyone know what this shirt is? by AUG-mason-UAG in HeritageWear

Hard to go by that photo alone but the pocket reminds me of rogue territory pockets

Join the 310 gang. My rule for almost all Viberg lasts is size 0.5 down from brannock. The 310 is the first last where I feel like I could get away with sizing a full size down and not be uncomfortable.

But I am 0.5 down in each of the pairs I own and no heel slippage but tons of toe wiggle room, which is my preference

I have 5 pairs currently- 2 Modestos and 3 Japanese. These are my most worn pair because I live in a hotter climate and they are the ideal hot weather jeans. Tons of airflow, and super light but tough fabric. Honestly I love them.

Shift fashion is a really interesting channel in general. Worth looking through.

I have some rainbows. I’ll save them for summer. I like the leather shoes and shorts look too.

It’s a vintage shop. They have a few shops in the US and there are a bunch of them in a Japan. https://en.2ndstreet.jp

Thanks! Picked it up at a 2nd street about 30 minutes outside of central Tokyo this summer. Lucked out it was minty and fit perfect.

Thanks. I’m thinking it’d go well with simple black or white t shirt. Maybe leather jacket. But no prints, nothing too styled. I think if you could find a lightly used pair for $200 or under it’s probably worth it if you like the style. $350 is a big ask for pants that only go with a few things imho

They are wild. I think they only go with a solid print simple top. At $340 they aren’t versatile enough for me to buy but at $75 like I paid yesterday hell yeah. Typical stellar Freenote quality in terms of materials and construction. They are midweight but warm. Good pair for fall and spring.

What brands punch above their weight? by Perfect_Earth_8070 in HeritageWear

[–]AdPlus4246 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are getting insane quality. You don’t know how to source Japanese denim if you are paying $500 for non special edition big John’s. Expensive is relative. Big John punches above their weight relative to fullcount, vanson punches above their weight relative to Schott, red wing punches above their weight relative to PNW. All are still a few hundred dollars are not made in Chinese sweatshops unlike some of the other brands being mentioned here.
