@lyraman sure mate... Mine is an L (the largest size they do) Buaisou - arm measured on the outside 57cm + shoulders width 60cm = 117cm total Real McCoys - arm 63cm + shoulders 53cm = 116cm The arm I wear varies but the position of the arm, in my experience, does depend on the shoulder width e.g. the Freewheelers 1922 jacket has shorter arms to accommodate the drop shoulder. Ditto the FW Powerwear hoody I have. A few of my denim jackets are 60cm arms. Need any more info or is this ok? While I'm here... I was asked about weight so here are some relative weights fwiw. I used one of those hand-held scales used for weighing bags for the airport. Real McCoys (lighter one, not Ballpark) - 550g - I believe this is sold as a 10oz Butcher Products 650g Buaisou 750g Freewheelers Powerwear hoody for completeness - 1,050g - it's a beast! 💪 So you can see where the Buaisou fits on the spectrum.

Just bumped the Buaisou thread... it's an option chicote...

Bump! Short, boxy, sturdy, quite wide-necked, dark indigo sweatshirt... Not the fit for everyone but I like it.... fits well under a short, boxy denim jacket without overhang

I was a little surprised to hear about tardy German trains considering the punctuality stereotype I hear the Swiss have been trying to ban German trains going into Switzerland because their lateness delays Swiss trains Not that the UK smells of roses!

^ looking good mate... lovely denim, fading nicely How do you judge the rate of fading compared to FW WW2 or 'standard'? I've been wearing my 37 jeans and 33 jacket daily and I'm thinking it'll be a long haul. I'm cool with that btw as I really like this denim in it's darker state as well as faded, so not in a rush.

Greenwich Park, London a few weeks ago

These Russell Moccasins found me - as they do - with a compelling 50% off deal at Zabou. The shop wouldn't ship sale items to the UK (but they will ship full price items hmm) so I used FromJapan, who combined with UK customs to erode some, but not all, of the 50% saving. Anyhow, pleased that my sizing forecast worked out well... because they are very nice shoes... just perfect for the wet muddy British winter

Coming along nicely thanks Julian. I've been wearing it more recently and the duck has started softening so it's starting to drape better. As I've mentioned before, I should have got the 44. Don't get me wrong this fits well enough, but these days I'm looking for a bit more volume. It's a lovely jacket that I can wear in a few seasons. I'll keep posting periodically to keep you updated!

Tend to agree b_F... not sure how a quite stout boot will work with your Denime and Resolute collection

Freewheelers Ironalls ecru chambray in size 17. Worn 3/4 times. I'm usually a 17 in most shirts but found this a touch too snug for me It's a great shirt so selling because I got lucky and found a 17.5. They sold out ages ago Shoulders 47cm / Pit to Pit 58 cm / Arm 62 cm DM me if interested. I'm in the UK.

Nice package arrived today courtesy of our man at Hoosier... I already have the Ironalls in size 17 but it's a touch too snug for my liking, so it's hardly worn (3/4 times tops). They sold out quick so I never thought I'd find a 17.5... but here we have it... hence the size 17 is up for sale... if anyone is interested DM me The Heaver work shirt is nice and heavy... great fabric, particularly 'warm' on the inside of the fabric

^^ the jumper's ace... for the crease to work, I think you need a size up in the trousers, especially as they are snug in the top block, and more length... in my humble opinion

^ wtf... how many?!

^ I think he'd run away... fast... oh hang on, wrong Ed for a minute...

.

Lol... lol... lol I see M-65s have shot up to £695 too Opportunistically, I have a M-65 size L for sale at a much better price... 😉 if interested DM me...

For he's a jolly good fellow, and so say all of us... and so say all of us... That FW legend Duke Mantee was spot on with our man in Japan

Gave my Alden - 379x military last - a little polish... cordovan creasing nicely
