    My latest Aero A2

    I think you have done well to size down, it looks as it should, however for an infamously tight fitting jacket i am surprised you could get away with dropping two inches off the order as well, was this because they come up larger in real life, are your pits not squeaking?

    Fantastic write-up Jan, really helpful explanations too. I am so glad that they are lined, I am assuming in some kind of calf skin. I will be ordering a pair. Nice one.

    Darkening a leather jacket

    Darkening a leather jacket

    The pure stuff doesn't do any harm but boy does it work, it soaks in faster than anything ive ever seen! It's an animal product so it kinda makes sense it would work well on animal skin.

    Aero Suggestions Needed
