    Aero buffalo, anyone have any experience with Aero's buffalo hide?

    HJ, yes the jacket was a BLUE buffalo from Aero's for LVC and I was just curious as I DO NOT own a jacket in buffalo.

    Aero buffalo, anyone have any experience with Aero's buffalo hide?

    Thanks for the help Dr., really appreciate it... I was under the impression that the buffalo hide would be thicker and heavier than their FQHH but it seems it is not. Sort of like the heavyweight steerhide. Shame really but I guess the softer, more pliable buffalo would be enojoyable to wear...

    Aero buffalo, anyone have any experience with Aero's buffalo hide?

    hi everyone, Hope all is well. Specifically looking at the buffalo Aero used for making jackets for Levis contracts? How does the buffalo hide compare to Aero's FHQQ, vintage horsehide, and their steerhide in terms of wear, weight, break-in time, ruggedness, and grain patterns. Thanks in...

    B-2s! (The furry cap, not the furry jacket)

    And now for the RAF version of the B-2... it seems even though these are supposed to be the same. The color is a little off and the sheepskin appears to be a little darker. Also, the newer one seems to have a more weathered (broken grain) look to it similar to the newer style broken grain B-2...

    B-2s! (The furry cap, not the furry jacket)

    Wanted to update with new batch of caps... well, I had to order a 2nd batch of B-2 caps from ELC as the first 2 were on the small size. To my dismay, the second 2 came and are TOO BIG!! Cannot understand why since I ONLY went one size up (7 to 7 1/8). Guess I am giving up since I DO NOT want...

    Help, need some clarification from the experts!! What's the difference between...

    Thank you both Mr. Lever and Mr. Johnson for the clarification... it is VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!! I am contemplating either picking up an original or repro. Leaning towards an original but don't know how wearable it would be since it would be more delicate than a repro. Guess I have to make a...

    Help, need some clarification from the experts!! What's the difference between...

    a M445 A and a M445 B? Just wondering as they look similar. Are these jackets referred to as an ANJ4? Were these jackets issued to the Navy like the G-1s and the ANJ4 to the Air Force or are they the same jacket with different designations? I took a look at the ELC and Aero sites to find...

    Vintage 50's Sears Hercules Horsehide MC jacket!!

    Very well put about the cut of the jacket... although in the back pic I think it is slightly off as the bifold section is stretched out. It seems that the jacket took this shape while being stored and sent to me BUT after the Pecard's treatment , the hide is MUCH SOFTER and the fit is a little...
