    Would you ever buy a leather coat? Or not your style?

    • @DudsByDel
      @DudsByDel  2 місяці тому +1

      Yes I have considered it. Like the Aero Barnstormer or Addict BMC (style like a Barbour International).

    Are you adding foam cushion to your hangers or did it come like that when you bought the jacket

  • @jons3808
    @jons3808 2 місяці тому +1

    That’s a beauty for sure. Perfect fit in my opinion. Great idea for your hanger! Is that swimming noodle material or hot water line insulation from the hardware store?

    • @DudsByDel
      @DudsByDel  2 місяці тому +1

      Thanks Jon! Yes it’s pipe insulation from the hardware store

    So what are the temps when this jacket can be worn at? I'm actually getting it " custom ordered" from the Avenue in the size 42. That said they couldn't/are not willing to swap to the sating lining when the jacket will be made. I'm in California. Therefore, I'm seriously planning on having the lining replaced with Dena.I know that she will do a great job. Also the jacket looks great, maybe a bit long for classic 30's standards. That said the fashion is clearly different today and I wouldn't be comfortable if it were any shorter.

    • @DudsByDel
      @DudsByDel  2 місяці тому +1

      Well it’s getting into the 80s here. You may check in with JCSD as he has one and lives in what is probably a similar climate for you. Agree about the length being longer for the period but good for now

  • @eranbarnahum829
    @eranbarnahum829 2 місяці тому +2

    About the length, in my opinion - too long is when:
    A. You’re sitting on the jacket
    B. It can’t be closed on the waist area because of a snug fit/cut, but it would closed from above the waist if the jacket was a bit shorter
    C. The overall shape/ silhouette of the jacket on the body looks weird
    This is not the case here, You’re jacket looks perfect on you

    • @DudsByDel
      @DudsByDel  Місяць тому +1

      Heck yeah. I actually made a video about it (Don’t Ruin Your Jacket). Putting foam on the hanger fills in the space and lets the jacket hang without forming creases over time
