Any Australians here would like some advice on a jacket purchase/customs invoice
It is. The problem isn’t with Aero - let’s get that bit clear - it’s our Governments’ policy for importations greater than AUD$1,000.- dan_t

restoring patina
ITS A LEATHER JACKET MAN!!! Beat it. Abuse it. Drink in it. Eat in it. Get drunk in it. Fight in it. Get someone’s blood on it. Make love in it. Ok, I might have gone too far. Wear it with pride. MAKE it yours.- dan_t

Scrunch up the rest of the jacket, so these little creases become unnoticeable.- dan_t

There IS an alternative Gentlemen. There is an Aussie stockist in Melbourne. Pickings & Parry. They’ll look after you, manage the ordering, shipping & taxes etc. you’ll even have an agreed price at the start of the process. If enough of us start to support them, who knows, they might be able...- dan_t

On the search for a new leather jacket!! Help!
I have an Aero Sheene (cafe racer pattern) made from steerhide. It’s bulletproof & I wouldn’t hesitate to wear it on my bike (other than the lack of armour). Worth considering.- dan_t

New but Older from Aero Fan
What’s really awesome about your pics are that the jacket is actually being used for the purpose that it was designed. It’s not just a fashion shoot. If I had to come off (& I certainly do not wish this upon you) I’d be happy that I had that beast on.- dan_t

Board Racer in 42 or 44 ?
I love these types of posts. You’ll get as many opinions as there are members. The correct ‘fit’ is so subjective. The real question is; which actually feels better when worn? It IS supposed to be a tight fitting jacket. After all, this design was meant to be worn as a second skin whilst racing...- dan_t

It’s too late to matter
Congrats, as it's an Aero I doubt you'll be unhappy either way. They are massively different fits in my opinion. The Aero Café racer design (I've had 3) tapers quite noticeably from the arm pits to the waist. It's actually quite an aggressive taper too. I'm a fairly broad shouldered guy and...- dan_t

Yeah, Photobucket has screwed the pooch lately. Basically it sucks and I haven't had the time to find an alternative.- dan_t

cafe racer jackets: opinions on these linings and leather thickness
Welcome to the Lounge! Most of those jackets above frankly are too small for the wearer. They'd never be able to be zipped, particularly #2 & most likely #3. If you're more into a fashion jacket & 'look' then you may not get the answers you're after here I'm afraid. The overall 'fit' of the...- dan_t
