That kaihara 505 fabric is such a stubborn fader, it’s crazy. I’ve worn my to pieces and it’s like it’s not really poaaible to get them to that true light blue state all round

My San Antonio ‘55s are about a year into their rotation. There were a couple of months where it was out of rotation because I didn’t get around to repairing them. This denim is really something else. It’s been a pretty stubborn fader, but it’s really starting to come through now.

Amazing fit man. Say, did they change the cut to make it more period correct? I remember it as more modern. What does it measure in the back

Feel like the jacket has started settling nicely. Doesn’t flare out in front like when it was brand new. The sleeves are also showing some promising progress.

New jacket fits you perfectly mate!

Man, have i scored today. I was browsing around some local ad sites and came across this beauty. From the label I knew this was good. But it’s full of surprises for me! It has “O” buttons and shares many details with my 557xx from the same factory. Same buttons, same sleeve cuff construction (and the button adjusters on the back) - all common of the “O” factory. Yellow bartacking, meaning this is definitely one of the earlier ones. the stitching is all over the place with the colormatching - two tone on one side, all yellow in the other. yellow in the collar and pockets and armhole, orange everywhere else. seen also is my late 60s/early 70s Big E, which is more as to be expected. They also have vastly different silhouettes. This new one is way more boxy and more tight in the shoulders. Very 557 in the fit. Had it not had a label, I’d have called it a 557. I’m pretty sure this a transition model! Stumped to find it. And at a bargain price. Excuse the bad lighting throughout haha

@MJF9 appreciate it! Can’t wait to put the miles on it!

Any way for non-US residents to watch this?

@Newman Where in the world are you at? And is it onewash?

I've been looking out for a 101-j, but i'm not really sure how to size them. My late 60s 70505-0217 is a 42 and that fits pretty slim on me, but generously enough for me to have a hoodie or such underneath. Think I'd prefer a 44. tips for sizing the J??

Does anybody know of places in mainland and no brexit EU that sells leather jackets? I’m thinking of parting with my Aero Highwayman as the I can’t really get comfortable with the fit.
