    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Have people been contact with Aero lately? Are they on holidays or something? I enquired about buying a new Cafe Racer last Friday and still haven't heard back. Or rather, I got a reply from Denny confirming that Cafe Racers have roomier sleeves than the Board Racer and then when I sent a...

    2 Aero Jackets For Sale (Board Racer and Premiere Highwayman)

    The titles of the posts with the detailed info are links and so is the Bold names of the jackets at the end of the original post. Everyone, the Board Racer has been sold at asking price. If you like the Prem Highwayman I'd get in asap as I do think the asking price is quite decent and it...

    2 Aero Jackets For Sale (Board Racer and Premiere Highwayman)

    I don't know if it's specifically an August collar. I think it's an individual pattern of a smaller collar that isn't dedicated to any model in particular. The good thing about smaller collars is that they make the chest and shoulders look bigger, which for guys is obviously a good thing...

    2 Aero Jackets For Sale (Board Racer and Premiere Highwayman)

    Aero Leathers Premiere Highayman Size 38 (Custom) This is an Aero Leathers Premier Highayman that I had custom made. It’s made from the Seal Vicenza Horsehide which has really gotten quite soft. I really love this jacket but unfortunately I’ve outgrown it’s size. It’s been broken in nicely and...

    2 Aero Jackets For Sale (Board Racer and Premiere Highwayman)

    Aero Leathers Board Racer Size 38 (Custom) This is an Aero Leathers Board Racer that I had custom made. It was one of the first 4 jackets to be made with the Black-over-brown Vicenza Horsehide. I absolutely love it, but it fit so much like a glove when I bought it that now that I’m a bit bigger...

    Hey all, I'm selling two of my Aero jackets for funds and because they no longer fit me. I'm including the links to the eBay posting which has all details, but I'll also copy that info and a couple of the photos here. Feel free to ask questions! Premiere Highwayman Board Racer

    Freewheelers Centinela Jacket

    Yeah I've browsed Rakuten and Buyee which I think plugs into Japanese Yahoo. I just missed out on one on there apparently. Someone on eBay is selling a RRL version of the Centinela but unfortunately the sleeves are just too short. It's so annoying to me because I love RRL but their jacket cuts...

    Freewheelers Centinela Jacket

    If anyone ever comes across a Freewheelers Centinela in a size 38 or 40 let me know! I want it! (In black of course). Why can't they just make more.

    Any Australians here would like some advice on a jacket purchase/customs invoice

    Well it doesn't matter about the website checkout. They don't charge your card until the order is ready to ship. So just send an email quoting order number I'd imagine and ask for alternate shipping. Also this is something they just updated so, give them a chance. I'm the first person that...

    Any Australians here would like some advice on a jacket purchase/customs invoice

    Well yeah I know it's in large part luck - but it seems that to my understanding, some postal services such as DHL might deliberately be incurring extra costs. Be it because they volunteer their parcels more readily for inspection or something? Or maybe they even just automatically add on the...

    Any Australians here would like some advice on a jacket purchase/customs invoice

    UPDATE - Aero kindly looked into alternative postal services as I mentioned. They ended up sending to me via Parcel Force Worldwide which is apparently very expensive, so some cost was passed on to me. I think it was £65. However, (and I don't know if this is a rule and something that can be...

    Distressing a leather jacket

    Luckily the bike survived. The headlight is a bit screwed up and a few scrapes around the place - but it's not totalled and doesn't need a mechanic. I actually didn't notice the jacket until a few days after. I was mostly nursing my injuries.

    Update guys; Aero told me via email they're looking into alternate shipping options. So hopefully a satisfactory alternative for shipping can be found. Fingers crossed.

    Any Australians here would like some advice on a jacket purchase/customs invoice

    I'm going to be asking because Kasper got it via EMS. Maybe that's an option that they'll do for me too. Do you guys think there's a decent chance of not paying the import duties when it comes via EMS, or did Kasper just get randomly lucky?

    If you still have that photo it might actually be helpful. Did you order direct from Aero?

    How black is blackened brown vicenza?

    It's my jacket that Carrie linked to. I'd say it's just black. It's a black jacket. Black over brown so if you scrape/scratch it or after quite a lot of wear, brown will start showing through instead of grey/blue. That's the reason I got that colour in the first place; because I wanted the brown...

    Any Australians here would like some advice on a jacket purchase/customs invoice

    I bought through Thurston for my first 2 Aero jackets. I didn't even consider this problem now that I'm buying from Aero direct this time. The couple hundred I'm saving by buying direct I could end up paying in import taxes etc. BUT - I might just see if there's someone I know living in the UK...
