I just bought myself the coolest stuff at the army surplus: an shearling (I think?) aviator cap and a swedish army coat/jacket. Both look very cool, the only problem is that the sleeves of the coat are extremely wide - otherwise, it fits perfectly. Is it very hard to slim sleeves? can I attempt to do it myself or should I take it to a professionnal?

note: I have successfully turned flares into skinny jeans in the past, but I have never worked with the thick wool material this coat is made of. I have access to a very basic sewing machine and can also do an ok handstitch (it isn't pretty, but it holds). advice?

I think you should take them to a professional. Not sure a basic sewing machine will do the job.

I got the canvas over leather Augustas a few weeks back.


Which will probably look pretty good with CDiem cotton coat

when the seasons change.

a good friend sent this from singapore;
helmut lang silk denim type III jacket
beautiful sheen and a soft hand to the denim, with a weight between a shirt and a jacket.

I have this same jacket in raw denim, haven't worn it in ages, a significant portion of my wardrobe cant be worn anymore because I've gotten too fat for the pieces

I'd be saddened if that were Devoa. The piece is exactly a Linea construction down to the fabric texture!

funny, i was thinking it could be Ind Sents...I'd be less sad in that case somehow.

Why should that be??

Even right down to the back seam details??
