For you get this fit, from the sale section, is quite special and if Julie made it you know you...

    Can you please recommend a jacket for me?

    Excellent! I would have shaped that collar to death by now, but each to his own :-) You can't beat how this hide wears in and shades, never much grain but a beautiful quality all of its own. Thanks for sharing!

    1940's Hercules leather jacket

    Good morning MacAero I think postage would be around that price, but depends on the size of the box. I'd be prepared to pay the postage, if it means keeping this jacket from eBay. Cheers Coop

    New Aero Premium Slim Fit 1930's Half Belt

    Thanks again chaps. Have agree with Edward, Horweens heavy front quarter horse does age like no other hide. Not sure if it was this specific batch but the translucent shading on this jacket, after just 7 months of light wear, is a thing of beauty.

    Will Aero FQHH jackets become a little wider after some years of wearing

    Apart from the vintage style collar, the cut of the Premier 1930's half belt feels trimmer. The back is less puffy, so can feel a bit restrictive when reaching forward. The sleeves have higher cut arm holes and are slimmer, cuffs are are quite snug. I'd say you need a slim frame to wear the...

    let's talk about shaping collars with HWT

    Thanks chaps, just thought I'd show a few jacket pics to give us a break from discussions on court proceedings (although it is all fascinating stuff) :-)

    let's talk about shaping collars with HWT

    Mike that's perfect, just how I like to see all my collars. It's a very personal thing of course. My long gone (too snug) GW Ventura, my Aero Premier 30's half belt and my recent vintage 40's Hercules (that latter shows you can still shape a 70 year old jacket!)

    1940's vintage half belt, one pocket lined in plastic!

    Here you go Mike, all the pockets are lined with moleskin apart from this one: Sadly it doesn't quite fit me so it's now in the classifieds if anyone's interested.

    1940's Hercules leather jacket

    For sale a very rare, large sized, 1940's Hercules jacket. No label but from the graining I would suggest horsehide. There is an interesting plastic lined pocket, for keeping cigarettes or tobacco dry (thanks handymike for the info on that). All zips are Talon and all work well. The lining is...

    1940's vintage half belt, one pocket lined in plastic!

    Cheers Mike, thought it might be something like that, just wasn't sure if they used plastic in jackets in the 1940's.

    1940's vintage half belt, one pocket lined in plastic!

    Just got my hands on a nice 1940's Hurcules style long half belt. Looks all original to me but one of the Talon zipped chest pockets is lined in plastic! All the others are lined in standard moleskin. Never seen anything like it before, can anyone shed any light on this? Original feature or...
