I dunno, man. I'm not going to discuss the businesspractice here, but there was quite a lot going on beyond the one wonky stitch on @Carlos840 jacket. There was several wayward seams and also the tear in the back. I'm notoriousy non-picky with most of my jackets, but that particular one was...
I mostly wear more "rustic" type of jackets where these types of mistakes doesn't show in the same manner, but this jacket is made to be a work of art, it's beauty is so much of it's purpose that these flaws would completely ruin it for me.
That is actually pretty wild how bad that is. When you consider the complexity and beauty of that jacket, those details REALLY matter. I can see why Aero puts their most experienced machinists on their more complex patterns and jackets.
The leather selection is crucial for this type of jacket I feel. Too thin and it looks sloppy, too soft it will drape in the wrong way. I feel like this style needs a bit of rigidity to it.
I'm dreaming about them now. Flat brown or tumbled brown or black CXL, standard no button cuffs with storm cuffs. Quilted lining, mouton collar and cut pretty short.
