    Aero vs Simmons Bilt - leather sample - customer experience

    I would love a tan colour goat but neither aero or SB offer it. Italian natural is too light and I don’t plan to treat it myself. I considered pacific indeed, plus Oakland. I’m hooked to the Daytona pockets and zips design - timeless and un-modernized. If I am not a cheapskate I’d go for Aero KOTR

    Aero vs Simmons Bilt - leather sample - customer experience

    That’s a great tip thank you. It would be between natural CXL or natural mustang or blattwerk mahogany!

    Aero vs Simmons Bilt - leather sample - customer experience

    This all started when I wanted an aero king of the road in tan colour! If I went for SB they only do Daytona but the back is not as interesting as KOTR. Too many choices for SB!

    Aero vs Simmons Bilt - leather sample - customer experience

    This is not about Aero vs SB who makes better jackets or what’s the history etc. This is about my experience of requesting leather samples - and I’d like to share - I was absolutely astounded by what received from Debs at Simmons Bilt. I emailed Aero for some light color samples - got asked to...

    Help to identify what steerhide is this Aero HWM

    What leather was that - the so called 'Rolls Royce coachworks steerhide'? This was supposed to be my 'winter jacket', but today I went out in it in 18d temp, with a shirt under, and it felt perfect. BTW I got your 'heavy heavy white CR' and just waiting for it to arrive - I'm just hoping it's...

    Casual double rider jacket - SB Oakland, or Aero King of the Road?

    Thank you guys I really appreciate the help here. I didn't finish reading that long SB 22" hem post - I won't be bothered with that kind of risk/hassell. So it comes down to either biting the bullet ordering a new KOTR from Aero, or wait for a used one to appear. What's the best way to follow...

    Casual double rider jacket - SB Oakland, or Aero King of the Road?

    Hello all My first post here. I have an Aero size 40 HWM with wool lining for colder months, as can layer a thin cashmere jumper underneath. But for the warmer months, I'm thinking of getting a second jacket - size 38 with just cotton lining. I know the common advice is get a design that can...
