    Recommend me a leather field jacket

    On field jackets, there is the Rosamond in the Barbour "Steve McQueen Collection" at £600 (but it is in lambs leather), if I were spending that sort of money I would save a little more and go for an "Admiral Byrd" Aero jacket available through Kentaurus an Aero retailer in Cologne, Germany, or...

    Aero's A2 apprentise made jacket, should i buy it?

    Mark, Another thing to remember about ordering your own spec' from Aero is that you do not pay anything until the jacket is ready to ship! which gives you another 12-14 weeks to save up! D

    Aero's A2 apprentise made jacket, should i buy it?

    Hi Mark, I'm not sure if this jacket is an apprentice made jacket, I think it is possibly an order which has been returned for some reason (incorrect fit, possibly), usually all the jackets which are apprentice made say exactly that, also if it was apprentice made I think it would be a little...

    Aero Stuart Brown Vintage FQHH Lining questions

    Mike, I doubt if you would notice the lightweight tartan (Reiver) being any warmer than the cotton drill, also if you look on the Loch Carron link there is a massive choice of different tartans (over 500 if I remember correctly!), I went for one that was in fact my family tartan(recommended by...

    Aero Stuart Brown Vintage FQHH Lining questions

    Hi Mike, I have a Stockman which is lined in the lightest of the tartans (the lochcarron Reiver) this is a 10 oz fabric, the sleeves of my jacket are lined in cotton drill which to me seems even denser than the reiver tartan also there is very little difference in the thickness of the fabrics...

    Wested B-3 Sheepskin jacket

    R/C Why not consider an Eastman C3, which is designed as a vest and at least you will know what it looks like before you carry out "Surgery", also it's only £30.00 more than the Wested and would have much greater second hand value should you ever wish to sell it D

    Will Aero do alterations?

    As the hide becomes more pliable it gets easier, I usually tolerate this as I think it helps with the breaking in process however you could unzip as Griff suggests, if you cannot tolerate it I'm sure Aero do carry out modifications(including double ended zippers) but I would contact Amanda to...

    I wonder how Aero feels about this.

    I believe Aero did aquire the use of the Aero Beacon name legally, and from talking to Will at Aero many companies ask if they can use the Aero name (one being Morgan cars), Will told me that if they ask nicely he usually has no objections, however if people just use it without consent to...

    Aero London Stockists

    If they were genuine Aero's at under £200 you should have bought them all and put them on e-bay, it seems strange to me that on Aero's own website you can not buy a trainee made jacket(or a second hand one) for under £300 that a retailer has them for over 33% less when they would require a mark...
