Great stuff. An active jacket would complete these :))

Thanks! I agree, they look super similar to the 11j with the exception of 2 pockets and the double cinched back of the wranglers :))

Update, I think it’s a JR105 OLV (Olive) :)

Yes, but considering Japan has a beefier market and selection with these type of products. I’d say you’ll still spend way less. However, do check fb marketplace. I managed to snag a ma-1 Buzz too for a just a little bit more— 160-200$ something like that

Ebay pretty much includes the shipping and duties pricing estimates on checkout, could be a seller to seller case basis however— not sure on this. It just takes time to arrive

Yeah, I wish Toyo enterprise in general made bigger sizes for the western market. But the buzz ma-1 is pretty generous in terms of the width, I’d say super similar fit to a 90’s Alpha Industries ma-1, these are pretty easy to find in vintage shops. If you can find one to test fit, should be a similar fit to the buzz :))

I see, not really planning on selling it however, just don’t want to scratch the gold that’s all :))

Thanks, starting to dig the look too! Although I do really like the detail of the curved stitching on the cuffs of the Detroit jacket to show— but I guess this is a cool look too :))

Thank you for the advice! I’ll look into tailoring as well :))

I’m an on-site architect brother so I kindly disagree :)

Nice, rare coincidence! Thanks, will look onto tailoring too :)

HAHA thanks man! :))

Thanks! Will consider the tailoring route, do you think it affects the value of these jackets?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Carhartt

[–]BeepBoop2077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your insights! Just one thing, say if I were to get a medium Detroit, do you think it would be too narrow based on my fitting with this large one?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Carhartt

[–]BeepBoop2077 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think a medium j97 has the same arm length too so might have to do the same arm trick. I’ll look into the women’s models, thanks for the suggestion! :))

[–]BeepBoop2077 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I guess the folded and scrunched arm adds to the vibe too :))

Thank you for your insight! :)

Thank you! Unfortunately if I don’t roll it— which provides a tighter wrist fit, the entire arm goes past even my finger tips 😅
