    Barbour Trooper. Too cold for leather and too warm for Irvins.

    How to resist buying another jacket?

    I cannot help either. I am fighting the addiction too. I wanna sell my Irvin (gets so little wear time) and buy an Aero Wayfarer in cordovan but I still reakon i'll need £300/400! I don't have it and certainly cannot justify it. How about a piggy bank? You could drop a few pounds in here and...

    Schott's Alternative to the Aero Highwayman

    Thanks Edward, I forgot the Highwayman is based on the biker/rocker jacket of the 50's/60's. And yes variety is a good thing even if it's not your thing.

    Schott's Alternative to the Aero Highwayman

    Much prefer the look of my Aero HWM and Nubuck wears funny. Why do they call it a bike jacket? A Perfecto or Café racer is a bike jacket, this is a street/casual jacket.

    When and where do you wear your Irvin jacket?

    I am waiting to wear my Cirrus Irvin style jacket, just not cold enough yet. It really does not get much use but I love it anyway.

    Bill Kelso Duke-Capeskin?

    I have a BK A1 in dark seal Capeskin. It looks very similar to your 30's jacket. It is soft, almost velvety to the touch and has areas of light mottles wrinkling and areas where it is smooth (ish) and void of wrinkles (best description I can do, sorry)

    Bill Kelso aeronaut cadet goat or horse?

    Hi, never seen or owned a BK goat but have had one of their jackets in the liberty hh and currently own a BK A1 in seal Capeskin which is a lovely hide. I'm afraid BK stirs passions some what here, bit like marmite, love or hate 'em. Be careful with BK sizing, in my experience they can run a...

    My favorite riding/driving gloves

    I recently got some gloves from HD, like you I like my gloves plain and simple, alas it was not to be. The only gloves HD have at the moment that are not all fancy is some fingerless gloves, very cool, simple all black leather with discreet HD logo. I tried a pair but couldn't get the dam things...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Just wanted to say thank you Casehopper. I was impressed with your Levi Commuter jacket and thought it looked good on you. It inspired me to look on the Bay for one and as luck would have it there was one in my size that I bidded on and won! Got it for a very good price too (I was the only...

    Cafe racer options -- Aero, Lost Worlds, Ironheart?

    I returned to biking last year but could not afford a bike specific jacket so I had my Cirrus A2 altered with the typical A2 collar being replaced with a café racer style collar with just one stud closure. I still keep a look out for a proper café racer on ebay and the like but to be honest the...

    Here's what kind of leather you might be getting if you buy a cheap jacket from China...

    Chose not to watch the video as I have seen this stuff before (Chinese restaurant owner skinning a dog alive!). They eat dog all over South East Asia too. I have seen them packed into cages on the back of pick-ups on the way to restaurants. It is not so much about eating dog or any other animal...

    A1 from Aero

    did you buy it in the sale page? Just surprised you did not know if it was lamb or goat. Do you like the fit? If you have doubts i would send it back for a remake cos it really looks too big for you and sleeves too long. Pockets seem so big too. Sorry, but i think better to return and get a...

    Aero Grand Theft Sale – who's going?

    Yes this is true, a trip to the factory would be a real experience indeed with of course the chance to pick-up a jacket that you know will fit you! Sadly too far for me.

    Aero Grand Theft Sale – who's going?

    Really cannot see the point in going unless you live nearby. Travel expenses likely to wipe out any saving you might make. Hopefully see something online after.
