    Aero Cafe Racer in brown oil pull horse hide

    Thank you Edward! I have never used the vertical pockets of my cafe racer, too uncomfortable to reach them and to open the zippers. The inside pockets are nice, but they make them too deep and i have to open the jacket to put in something. Then i got the idea to put the inside pocket on the...

    Aero Cafe Racer in brown oil pull horse hide

    When I heard that the olive gab will run out, I called Will to put away some for my next jackets. That the olive gab is available again is just a guessing. I noticed that the B10 is order able since a few weeks. A while ago Will told me that Aero stop making these jackets because the machinist...

    Aero Cafe Racer in brown oil pull horse hide

    Nice to hear your kind words about my jacket. I think the problem with the fitting of these jackets are the armholes. The size of the armhole does not go down by the same proportion as the rest of the jackets. I specially asked for trimmer arms and a higher armhole, but that is a big problem by...

    Aero Cafe Racer in brown oil pull horse hide

    thx for your kind words. @Cole: Yes, i have also that problem with the sizing of Aero. I also started with 46 a long time ago. Now all my jackets are 42, only the cafe racer is 40. My old 38-1711 was also a 40, but that was definitely too uncomfortable. Sizing is also a question of fashion. At...

    Custom A-2 opinions

    Hello, from my point of view that is not a fault to mix the different contracts. If got a A2 with all the features of the 38-1711 made on the pattern of the Bronco. I keept the collar of the Bronco because I like it more than the collar the 38-1711, but it has still the collar stand. My...

    Aero A2 38-1711-P in heavy FQ horsehide after a year of wear

    That is one of Aero´s special service. I think they are the only maker who offers this service in such a wide range. All my jackets are modified a lot. But, these changes take time and sometimes they forgot something or misinterpret a wish. For my new Cafe Racer i waited about a year. Enjoy...

    Aero A2 38-1711-P in heavy FQ horsehide after a year of wear

    Horrido, that jacket is a special order made from brown heavy frontquarter horsehide. the color looks near a broken in seal jerky horse. only a very few A2 are ordered in heavy front quarter. Cole has one too. So if you send Amanda a photo of a A2, she will not thing about heavy horse. If you...

    Aero A2 38-1711-P in heavy FQ horsehide after a year of wear

    Horrido, my A2 is made from Aero´s brown heavy frontquarter horsehide. Normally the A2´s are made from mid weight hides. Perhaps the frontquarter is more expensive, so order before they rise their prizes. regards, Olli

    Aero A2 38-1711-P in heavy FQ horsehide after a year of wear

    The Bronco fits nearly the same, is a little bit longer and perfect in the shoulders. Looks really great and fells much more comfortable. AND, the Bronco is a 38-1711. All the features of the 38-1711 on the pattern of the Bronco. No colleague noticed that I got a new jacket. ;-))

    Aero A2 38-1711-P in heavy FQ horsehide after a year of wear

    Hello from Hamburg, each contract has a different shape and fit. Also each maker interpret the tender by themselves. The cut of the A2 is like that of a shirt, not a blouson. You can have slim fit to baggy. The 38-1711 contract is tailored for smaller and slimmer, like the average guy of...

    Aero A2 38-1711-P in heavy FQ horsehide after a year of wear

    Hello Horrido, you have to ask Amanda for the measurement of the 38-1711 contract. The 15142 is a tent!!!!! The later contracts like the 42-15142 are wider in the body and the sleeves as the older one's. Also these jackets do not have all the little feature like the collar stand and the...

    Aero A2 38-1711-P in heavy FQ horsehide after a year of wear

    Hi Horrido, tried to PM you, but doesn´t work. So I answer though the tread. I´m 192 cm, 88 kg, 106 cm chest, waist don´t know, a 33 or 34 trouser fits. My Aero 38-1711 is labeled 40. The jacket is very very snug and it is not wearable with more than a shirt. If you have an athletic frame I...

    Aero Cafe Racer - Opinions!

    Thanks Cole, you will be surprised. This cafe racer is complete different. i like the big swing back a lot, but for me the kidney panel was not high enough. cheers olli

    Aero Cafe Racer - Opinions!

    Hello, here you can see another interpretation of the bi swing back. it is between the biker´s back and the full swing back. I asked for a higher kidney panel, so the swing back gets smaller. I will post a thread about the jacket soon.
