    shrinking aero anyone?

    Thanks HD, I have come to assume this was the case. There are always some members of these great forums who take this approach. I may be 'new' here, but have been a member of several high end watch & motorcycle forums for many years & have witnessed the same. As per my last sign off, I do...

    shrinking aero anyone?

    Man, whether someone has posted twice, ten times or one hundred is irrelevant. An educated person can read the entire post, without weighing in and understand the commentary from all involved. Why do you have to take such a harsh & personal tone to many who have contributed? You keep asking...

    shrinking aero anyone?

    So let me see if I have this right after what is it now... almost 300 individual posts... You have a jacket that has shrunk. You're not happy with this, but no-one can difinitively explain why - neither the manufacturer or any of the educated members here who combined, probably account for...

    My new Wayfarer Tumbled Cordovan - fit pics

    Congratulations on a stunning jacket!! This is the one in the current Aero catalogue that has my interest the most. Really wanted to see it being worn as although I do really like the style, I was mildly concerned that the front design may have come across as a little 'country & western'. Fear...

    New (to me) Alexander Leathers Half Belt - your thoughts?

    Thanks Seb, maybe I'll reach out to you to meet up & try yours on as a 'fit jacket' if I ever get around to ordering one from new from either AL or Aero. That'd provide a heck of a good foundation to get the measurements correct.

    New (to me) Alexander Leathers Half Belt - your thoughts?

    Thank you everyone for your thoughts and feedback. As mentioned in the original post, this is my first half-belt & just may not be the last......... OK, the feedback seems to be that around 7 of the responses so far indicate the length is fine & 6 or so responses suggest an inch of additional...

    New (to me) Alexander Leathers Half Belt - your thoughts?

    Hi all, I recently posted an introduction thread asking for feedback on a jacket that I had. http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?78973-Brand-new-member-RMW-Leather-Drover-Jacket&highlight= You were all so helpful that I thought I'd post a follow up one. I have just purchased a used...

    Aero Premier Fit Bootlegger in Vintage Cordovan

    Brilliant jacket & fit. I'm actually stunned & extremely pleased to hear that you can access the fit jacket process from Carrie. Sending one of these jackets halfway around the world & back to get the right fit can't be cheap! It makes me even more excited about the eventual purchase ahead of...

    New Aero Original Hercules review, with fit pics

    Man, that's a really, really nice jacket! I'm a little like you, lurking around the shadows of this great site, popping my head up every now & then, trying to learn about what is actually available before jumping in and buying my first Aero. Likewise, I'm not too hooked up on the historical...

    New Aero Wayfarer 1930s half-belt order in

    Is there seriously no Wayfarer's amongst all of the members on this forum? Going back to the OP's original request for pic's, I was also hoping someone else would contribute their own images for all of our benefits!!

    Brand new member - RMW Leather Drover Jacket

    Thanks nick123, perhaps that's just it. Maybe I simply need to wear it and have it shape to my body! It sits brilliantly when done up, but kind of holds itself open rather than 'falls' with the body when undone. I'm certain that it will shape beautifully with a bit more wear and improve with...

    Brand new member - RMW Leather Drover Jacket

    Interesting that you said that. I found the sizes to be very generous. I normally wear a size 42R business suit, have a chest measurement of 44" & had to drop to a size Medium for a good fit!

    Brand new member - RMW Leather Drover Jacket

    Thanks everyone. It was quite a different style to what I'd normally wear (close cut cafe style) & probably just felt 'different' that's all. Should be nice, it wasn't cheap! Over AUD $1,000 purchase price!

    Brand new member - RMW Leather Drover Jacket

    Thanks all, no tailoring at all just plenty of time in the shop trying on different sized coats. As they are hand made, no two are exactly the same. Close, but not identical. I guess I'm broad up top (44" chest) and narrowish waist (34"). This does present its own unique challenges finding a...

    Please do Post pics!!! I've been eyeing the Wayfarer off for a few months now, but really, really want to see one in the flesh so to speak. Particularly the tumbled cordovan option that you mention!!!
