    Aero Vicenza vs CXL FQHH vs CXL Steerhide = 1st world problems

    I am sorry if it’s not clear that I already state that it’s an opinion. If this forum cannot accept opinion. Then this site should just be a reference site who professionally deal with such thing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Aero Vicenza vs CXL FQHH vs CXL Steerhide = 1st world problems

    I only have 1 (for start), schott 673. The experience is based on the sample sent by Aero. I know as people mentioned here that sample is not a good measurement of actual how it looks like for now. I will observe more when I visit aero next week. Not much good leather in Singapore to judge...

    Aero Vicenza vs CXL FQHH vs CXL Steerhide = 1st world problems

    Answer time: A= steerhide B= vicenza C= fqhh In my opinion: Steer grain is bolder compared to horse. As an overall jacket, I think it need to be seen in person as the sample is just a small piece. Vicenza feels like dead leather to me. It’s thinner, more flexible from the start. Feels a bit...

    Aero Vicenza vs CXL FQHH vs CXL Steerhide = 1st world problems

    Can you elaborate your experience between sample and actual jacket? I have only 1 schott jacket. Vintage/tumbled waxy cowhide. Despite different tannery with Aero, the “grain type” is the same/expected as steerhide sample from aero. Here’s some pic Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Aero Vicenza vs CXL FQHH vs CXL Steerhide = 1st world problems

    Sample definitely will not be able to tell how it will drape. But other properties should be aligned (how it will wrinkles, color change) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Aero Vicenza vs CXL FQHH vs CXL Steerhide = 1st world problems

    Here’s a hint. It’s 3 different leather :) Steer vs Horse here’s my observation Horse may go through hardwork/more active live, thus the muscle is higher density and more pack/fine fibers. Wrinkles happen when the leather lower side (closer to corium?) fibers get “broken/detach”. Vicenza vs...

    My new favorite jacket custom Aero Sheene

    Awesome jacket. Great sleeve length fit. Is it just my perspective or is the chest and shoulder a bit to big that make it looks like big drop from chest to waist? Or is it because of no bi swing back? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Leather Jacket in Airplane (long flight)

    I care about the smell because my wife complain about it. “Bad” smell in closed air circulation environment for 7 hours is not good. Your keyword is “see” they can close their eyes or watch TV and forget about it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What’s your heaviest leather jacket and how much it weigh?

    My interest is not for compete “who has the heaviest jacket” but more on what kind of jackets does the forum have, how heavy it is and what kind of weight when we talk about when we said it’s heavyweight jacket. I never had a leather jacket before and not easy to find good one in hot country...

    Leather Jacket in Airplane (long flight)

    I use my jacket in my bedroom with aircon turned on and my wife found the smell annoying because it’s trapped in closed air circulation room. The same concept might applied to other passengers in airplane too. This forum (and me included) love leather smell but apparently it’s not for everyone...
