    New Member and My Aero Highwayman

    I tried to put the pics in with IMG tags on them, but they didn't work. Great looking jacket nonetheless!

    Horsehide can be pretty stiff...

    My one Horsehide jacket is my Aero "ACE" Half Belt that I received in May 2010 - it is stiff, but much more soft and pliable than my heavy Steerhide Highwayman from May 2009. Perhaps the Horsehide for mine was a lighter piece than usual - I was actually a bit disappointed when I first...

    Vanson Model B Size 44 Brown Competition Weight leather FOR SALE!! Great price!!

    Hey all! I have decided to sell my Vanson model B in brown Competition Weight Cowhide. It's a size 44 with 26" long sleeves and zip cuffs. The 1" windflap in this jacket is just the right size - it works great but looks unobtrusive. The jacket is in fantastic shape - the leather is thick...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    I found the following pics on the web a while back. They show what you are describing just about perfectly - double leather midsoles and Vibram 705 half soles. Keep in mind that Wesco uses really thick midsoles, so yours might not look quite this thick. Personally, I love it. I am...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    I think they would look good - look at a lot of the Wesco's and other high-end boots out there - they have pretty thick soles. Also, as you wear them around , the edges of the soles will soften (get rounded out a bit) and will appear thinner than they are. In my opinin, a good resole is all...

    Wow - that is a beautiful jacket and a great fitting one to boot! Great choice! How thick is the goatskin comapred to Cow or Horse? I am really looking forward to the colder weather so I can finally wear my new Aero (got the darned thing in May!) Congrats, and enjoy it! - Jim

    My new (to me) Vanson Model B in brown!!

    I get what you're saying - I am thinking about taking a ride tomorrow, so I will see how the sleeves feel. If it doesn't work out, I might just use it for casual wear. Color is hard to accurately represent, although my pictures are pretty close to reality (and much closer than the pics the...

    My new (to me) Vanson Model B in brown!!

    I need to go for a ride with the jacket and see - I haven't had a chance yet. The sleeves are definitely borderline - in reality, I woud like another inch in length. Do you think they are short enough that they look funny? Being that this is a snug fit when zipped, I think what is happening...

    My new (to me) Vanson Model B in brown!!

    Hey all - It's been too long since I've posted here! I just recently got a very fair deal on a Vanson model B in brown Competition Weight Cowhide. It is used but it's in great shape. It's a size 44 and the fit is on the snug side, but not overly tight. The sleeves are 26" long...

    Vanson Horsehide Enfield

    Joe - Dan does run Logan's Closet - I had forgotten the name of his website when I posted about him. I have not ordered through him before, but I have heard nothing but good things and the prioce he quoted me was very good. I love the idea of a Vanson "House" jacket with a brown color...

    Vanson Horsehide Enfield

    Joe - I agree, I love the jacket but hate the thin crinkly horsehide. If you want horse, go with an Aero - their horsehide is amazing. If you go for a custom Vanson, order it through a dealer rather than direct through Vanson - you'll save a lot of money that way. There is a dealer who...

    Advice on buying Aero Rocker/Highwayman

    Chris - The jacket will be cut to your measurements, so the measurements another person gives you may be different than what you receive. However, the beauty of buying an Aero is that you can customize to your heart's content. For example, if you want a snugger fit, you could buy an...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    It's true. To find truly good engineer or work boots anymore, you pretty much have to live in the Pacific Northwest, or shop online. To be perfectly frank, most of the boots in the $100 - $150 category are not that well made anymore. $350 - $450 will net you an amazing pair of boots, but...
