    New Aero Long Half Belt

    Hello, I just wanted to post some pictures of my new jacket. Aero did a wonderful job, but this jacket wouldn't be half as good as it is without all of you help. I really appreciate everything you guys do here, and I've really enjoyed being a part of this community. Please excuse the...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Just for reference, my Boss boots are Wesco's standard heel height.

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Yes! Pete at Wesco can do what they call a "heel squeeze." They heat the heal cup, and make it narrower. Hope that helps!

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    These are my custom Boss boots. I brought walking shoes with me on a trip, and opted to wear these instead as they proved to be far more comfortable for 8 mile a day walking. Btw, this is a cross post from the Iron Heart Forum, for those of you who might spend time there as well. And...

    Any Do's & Don'ts in military clothing?

    Apparently you've never lived in Washington, DC! You would be likely to find a reason everyday :)

    Wesco Highliner Boots (RW9710) for Street Use.

    Coffee, Might I suggest the Jobmasters? I'm not sure if there's anything different besides the extra piece of leather and metal bracket. I could be wrong, but other than that, they're essentially the same boot. However, I'm with ButteMT61. If you like 'em, get 'em. I have the Boss boots, and...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Coffee, Wesco will do resole for you. It's far cheaper than a rebuild! I can't remember exact prices, but I looked into it for my Boss boots someday. I have 430's on both my Boss and Jobmasters, but I was thinking about getting a 100 put on there someday, and Wesco is more than happy to do it.

    milwuakee crazy horse leather motorcycle jacket review

    Yeah, I wouldn't waste my money on that thing. Between the stamping of the yoke, and the "aging" they've taken the liberty of doing for you, it's certainly not for me.

    Leather Jacket Weights

    My Aero Long Halfbelt in FQHH size 40 weighs 8.5 lbs. Holy crap! It has leather lined cuffs and a leather panel along the bottom.

    Survey: Your Favorite A-2 Jacket (Original or Repro, Expensive or Cheap as Hell!)

    I sort of agree that a slim jacket might be a bit too fashion forward. However, I've learned a lot from my wife about this lately, and that's that properly fitting clothes are best. I wear polo shirts for work, and I'm 6'1" 180 lbs. So, naturally, I think I'm a tall guy, and I should be wearing...

    There's nothing like tailored shirts to keep you looking sharp!

    That's an expensive LL bean bag, but they'll replace it if it breaks! :)

    Why are some AERO A-2 models different prices even though the same hide is used??

    That jacket is amazing.

    Royal Stewart lining

    Honestly, unless you're washing a fabric often, or letting it sun bathe, I can't imagine any reason why it would fade. Just my two cents.

    Edward, I think you hit the nail on the head.

    I got an email from Amanda this morning saying that my jacket is ready! Does anybody know how long the shipping time is from the UK to the eastern US?
