    New Aero Ridley Jacket in Tumbled CXL FQHH

    It's definitely stiffer than a jacket you would buy off the shelf somewhere, but that said, it's still extremely easy to wear. I once handled a CXL steerhide jacket at the Schott store here in Los Angeles, and that thing was an absolute monster. Just unbelievably thick and stiff and greasy to...

    New Aero Ridley Jacket in Tumbled CXL FQHH

    Thanks, man. Your Ridley was actually the one that got me thinking about this style way back when you first posted it. As for the girlfriend, she's probably still wandering around that parking lot, so feel free to go and find her. She loves modeling jackets that don't belong to her, so you'd be...

    New Aero Ridley Jacket in Tumbled CXL FQHH

    Hello everyone, After taking all of your advice into account from my "Best Leather for a Lifelong Jacket?" thread back in May, I ended up ignoring pretty much all of it and instead decided to go with Tumbled CXL FQHH. After finally receiving the jacket today, I decided to take it to the one...

    This goes to show just how much the Pound has fallen, because a brand new one nowadays is about $640.

    Best leather for a lifelong jacket?

    Maybe it's obvious, but I've had a few beers. What do you mean it's "too much in the past"?

    Best leather for a lifelong jacket?

    I was also surprised at all of the CXL hate that this thread inspired. I always hear that Chromexcel is tough as nails for boots and belts, and I used to read that it was tough for jackets, too. Now it seems like the thinking on that has changed...at least around here.

    Best leather for a lifelong jacket?

    It was nice to finally handle the Vicenza and see what it felt like, but unfortunately the base of the zipper was about an inch smaller than my body, so I was never able to actually zip it up. Very nice jacket, though.

    Best leather for a lifelong jacket?

    Thought I'd give you guys an update on my Thurston Bros. fit jacket. My girlfriend was just randomly snapping pics, and somehow managed to capture me looking like Adam Sandler in "The Waterboy". Well, either that or Ben Stiller as Simple Jack in "Tropic Thunder". You be the judge.

    Aero Sheene- Fit Advice and Creative Guidance

    These pics are much appreciated. I'm torn between Vicenza and black CXL, but I think now I'll have to support the good old USA and go with CXL. Do you think I would get more of a teacore effect with regular CXL or the tumbled version? Thanks in advance!

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    It's interesting that you measure height in centimeters. My dad is 198cm, and I always thought I'd grow that tall, too. Alas, I only made it to 172cm.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    You are one big dude. It says a lot when a man's feet make me stop what I'm doing and stare in disbelief.

    Thedi leather MTC-D1279720

    What a beauty. I had a disappointing Thedi experience, but I think that was just down to me not being firm enough with what I wanted. This jacket is making me want to scratch that itch again.
