    First sighting for Aero's next April Show?

    I was going to say that earlier when I saw the two-toned post, not only did I think it was a cheap and unnecessary affiliate hi-jacket on this thread, but also it is so over done my eyes got a fright.

    Fit jacket pics

    Too big man, way too big, the jacket should fit like a second layer of skin or there about's, measure yourself, and give the measurements to Carrie. And if you can't measure yourself there is person who can help with all of this "mom"

    My Latest Evening Aero

    Yes to answer you both its the body of the hide which concerns me now, the deerskin is ultra soft, the horse firm, but the only thing churning in my mind is where I have spec'd the horse is as a supporting role and the deerskin the starring role. The other hard truth is there are three other...

    My Latest Evening Aero

    Okay well i just got the samples in from Aero and I can confirm that the Bavarian Deerhide is a touch thicker than the Russet smooth horse. It is butter soft, velvet soft, and has a bit of give, not a great deal

    "New" Aero A-2 contract 38-1711-p

    looking a bit better, re shower, zip it up boyo first and hold it upside down under a hot shower, this way you can control the flow of water over it, tuck the knits into the sleeve, pause, give it a good twist and then soak again.

    "New" Aero A-2 contract 38-1711-p

    Good, and further to that Boyo, you can do it again, as Butte says in the shower, and I would, but use very hot water, as the heat breaks down the oils in the jacket which is the main objective here, you will smell them in the steam, and of course as you so brilliantly demonstrated with the...

    The London "Heads up" thread

    West London. I was thinking of booking a table in a pub upstairs for the evening. Maybe something closer to xmas, blame it on the shopping, but if it works perhaps we could keep it going. If you or anyone seconds the idea I'll start a thread and then we can work from that.

    Would it not be a good idea for us to meet up for a drink one evening some where central to us all?

    My Latest Evening Aero

    I was just looking at 40 momme bridal silk for the lining, its slippery so jacket slides on and off with ease, its cool in the spring, got a great weight on it, but I can't seem to find it in black. You know what I was thinking might make an awesome lining for a winter jacket - melton wool.

    My Latest Evening Aero

    It looks like a long list. And I was really surprised to see that most seem to worry about it passing Go. You make a good point Fanch about being future-proof. I also worry that the hide isn't up to it. Deerskin stretches and is 'eek' very stain attractive. I trust Aero when they say...
