    PLEASE..I'm Begging..someone buy this before I do!

    The real reason this has not sold is that the seller is terrible at answering questions. Sent him two questions on first day of auction. No answers yet...

    Aero Brown Horsehide Highwayman 46 (+ 1" length) almost new

    Made me think of something...either most guys are smaller (38-42 range) or big guys just don't wear/talk about fine leather jackets much. It looks great. Just pointing out an observation.

    What are your thoughts on US WINGS Jackets?

    No worries. Looking back, I have several comments I'd love the chance to retract. No worries at all.

    What are your thoughts on US WINGS Jackets?

    Dr. Strange, yes, I get it. Part of my comment was "LOL", the second part asking about the notice of a difference was meant to be a "tongue in cheek" comment. It was like asking "Can you tell the difference between that new Porsche and that old Toyota Corolla you were driving?" More than...

    What are your thoughts on US WINGS Jackets?

    LOL! So the Aero was noticeably better in quality? That is one of the things I was curious about in my original post.

    Knit replacement in germany

    Are you close to Munich? If so, try Gasoline Alley in Munich. They carry Aero and they do custom orders. They may have the connection you need to get your knits replaced.

    Hanna Hats of Donegal Ltd

    This is very good information. What kills me is that the two you mentioned, that were good, are cheaper! Ugh...

    Vegetable Tanned Natural Leather & Olive Oil..match made in heaven

    Okay, I must admit, the photo I uploaded was taken just after the application of oil. It lightened about two shades by the end of the day. So I applied three additional coats of oil last night. Here is an updated photo from this morning.

    Dark options

    Exactly my point. The sample I got is a dark, rich, matte finish brown. It's quite beautiful.

    Dark options

    A question for those of you who have experience with both Aero and Alexander leathers... Which is the darker of these two leathers? 1. Aero CXL Brown FQHH 2. Alexander Warhawk Havana Brown FQHH I got a sample of the Alexander warhawk today in the mail. I must say, it is beautiful...

    Unfortunately I didn't take a before shot, but it looked like this:

    Vegetable Tanned Natural Leather & Olive Oil..match made in heaven

    That sounds like a winner. I read people's warnings about rancidity, but I am not too worried. Time will tell. My thoughts are that with wear the stain will stay, but the organic components of the oil will dissipate.

    Vegetable Tanned Natural Leather & Olive Oil..match made in heaven

    Thank you Hoosier. It is much more pliable now, too, which makes it feel vintage.

    Vegetable Tanned Natural Leather & Olive Oil..match made in heaven

    So recently I purchased a vegetable tanned Corter belt in a natural finish. When it arrived and I tried it on, it was just too "white" for me. I began to research how to darken leather and I ran across an old method where olive oil was used. Boy am I happy I did. Here is the result. It was...
