    Pike Bros Sweat shirt and T shirt question.

    Hello agents, I'm in the market for some vintage style sweats and three button t shirts. I see Aero Leather stock some pretty pricy garments of this ilk by Pike Bros and I'm wondering if they are worth the brass and more importantly, what makes them worth that kind of price tag? I'm not...

    Schotts NYC 660 Cafe Racer

    Selling a black 660 Cafe racer size XL. I've owned the jacket for a couple of years but rarely worn it purely because its black and thats not my colour. Outside of breaking in, there is no wear and tear on the jacket and certainly no odours. The leather is beautifully soft and drapes well...

    What do you do for Living?

    Why Castlemaine Peter, that's like an Aussie traveling across the world to Denny! If it's the Victorian one its a great wee spot and if your a beer fan there is a real ale brewery fairly close to you and a couple of cracking pubs. Garry

    Favorite Uniforms

    Steerman. Apparently the kilt was very useful in the Great War trenches as in wet weather the soldiers legs were not constrained with heavy wool trousers plus the wet weather gear provided to them included an apron which went around the kilt itself. This allowed the men to take the kilt off and...

    Aero Teamster owners: Some advice to a newbie please

    Hi Oggy. I've recently received a Teamster in FQHH. I think the most difficult part of having so much input into a jacket is how much you worry about size and other tweaks you make to the standard jacket. I too was thinking about adding a few inches to my jacket but went with the standard 44 as...

    Cost of quality then and now.

    Hello all, I've just come off the phone to my family back in Scotland and I had an intersting experience. I've recently purchased an Aero Teamster and a pair of Redwing Iron Rangers. I mentioned this fact to my dad (aged 73) and to my grandad (Aged 97) independently, both just about had...

    Another Teamster

    Thanks for the feedback guys. Mark, I'm 6'3 and a 44 inches across the chest. It is a big jacket but I think part of that is the hide. Being horse it's pretty stiff and in need of breaking in. I think when it's a bit more formed to me, it will appear less boxy. Dan, I will post some more...

    Is British style not what it was (or maybe never was in the 1st place)?

    Being Scottish I am by default British so I don't have an issue with Brit or Briton. The only issue I have with the term "Brit" or "Briton" is that it is often used in the same context as "English" and that does not tell my story. Here in Oz the media does not seem to know the difference. Terms...

    Another Teamster

    Thanks for the comments lads. I'm very please with it and your right Fanch, it is close to identical to yours since yours was the deciding factor. Hmmm Smithy, If you think I wont get the use out of it here in the Victorian winter I can only assume you've never been to Ballarat in June/July...

    Another Teamster

    Photo at last! Please ignore my previous concerns about the shoulder seams, I dont notice it now. Ive been wearing the jacket quite a lot and its starting to break in in the arms and collar after a bit of water treatment. What do you think? fdf

    Is British style not what it was (or maybe never was in the 1st place)?

    At the risk of being called a Curmudgeon by some, I assume we are all aware that the terms "British" and "English" mean different things and are not interchangable?

    How to wear fishtail trousers

    Hello gents, I've recently purchased a 3pc suit in Harris Tweed and being new to classic bespoke fish tale riser trousers, I'm unsure about how high to wear them with braces. Do any of you gents have any tips on how high to wear them? Regards Garry

    Another Teamster

    I was hoping someone whould say that Rudie. Its a small inerfection in an otherwise beautiful jacket. Aussies, I live up a mountain about 12Km from Baltic Ballarat in Victoria so I the winter will be plenty cold enough. The medium weight tartan is not that thick. Being Scottish, I have a...

    Another Teamster

    Hello all, Well my Teamster arrived yesterday and what a beast it is. The thing is definately Clydebuilt and going to take some taming. I got it as a standard 44 jacket in brown FQHH with "real football" (for you sporting heathens) buttons, medium weight weathered MacKenzie tartan and a...
