Good day, gentlemen and fellow leather jacket enthusiasts! I have on offer 2 outstanding leather jackets: a Schott 618 Perfecto and a Schott 641HH Cafe Racer. I got these in March 2013 and August 2013. They were my first high quality leather jackets, and I'm sad to see them go. Frankly, they're...
I'm thinking of getting an Aero Teamster in Cordovan FQHH with a tweed body lining & corduroy sleeve lining... But I'd have to sell my Schott 618 & Schott 641HH for that. I'd have to make about $600-700 off of those; you guys think that's reasonable? Any takers? :D
Aero uses Horween CXL for their jackets, which is full grain. If you want a substantial jacket, I can highly recommend their 4-4.5oz steerhide. My absolute favorite leather, period.
Those sound like amazing modifications, and the snap at the bottom is reminiscent of Langlitz jackets! I reckon the sleeve zipper at the back is a very tight, proper MC jacket sleeve zipper (on Vanson & Schott jackets)?
Man, this really sounds like a grail to me.
I ordered a belt from Equus Leather a couple of weeks ago, still waiting for it. Waiting time is 5-6 weeks. This is my first quality leather belt; I'm wearing a Levis belt for the time being.
As for gloves; what kind of gloves are you looking for? For casual every-day use I wear these...
Give Aero your measurements and specify what kind of fit you're after and if you intend to layer or not. Whatever size they advise should work out fine. And indeed, be sure to specify sleeve and body length. For sleeves, measure (on a jacket that has the sleeve length you want) from the shoulder...
I have corduroy sleeve lining in my Highwayman-- it's the bomb. It's thick, feels very luxurious and is plain nice. So soft and looks gorgeous. I reckon it's probably not for everybody, though. Combined with Aero's steerhide makes for very thick, stiff sleeves.
Thank you, Edward! It is a very cool jacket but I think I'd like the Cascade a lot more. You can request the diagonal shoulder strap, it's attached to the Saw Browne belt. Without the belt the jacket does look more suitable for casual use. It still weighs a ton, though. Comes in at 9.9lbs with...
