    Aero Leather Jacket Owners in SF Bay?

    I'm in Oakland and often work in SF. Be glad to show you my Aero Hercules in black HH. That said, I'd recommend ordering from Johnson instead. There is nothing Aero does that Johnson can't do at least as well with a wider variety of leathers to choose from, faster, less expensive, and a better...

    What are your favorite Aero designs?

    Dwane from Mumford and Sons seems to like the Dustbowl, too: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/features/mumford-sons-new-road-20150702 It's easier to see in print. For some reason Rolling Stone started to appear in my mailbox. This is not an endorsement of the magazine.

    Stetson Paglia Prototype

    I hope the metal tag on the bow can be removed without leaving a mark. Otherwise it looks interesting.

    Schott and Horween Chips

    Instead of getting a jacket "Based on the jackets worn by the California Highway Patrol", why not order a custom jacket made by a company that actually makes motorcycle cop jackets, Johnson Leather of SF? It'll cost less, be more authentic, and have a custom fit. Just sayin'.

    Eastman A-1 size 48: 2 Weeks In

    Here's what my GW A-1 looks like now. Well, what it looks like thru my terrible pictures. I haven't treated it with anything. I sewed back one button, but otherwise have done nothing to this capeskin jacket.

    A-1 Jacket / A1 Flying Jacket - The ultimate Golden Era flying accessory!

    Some of you might remember the capeskin Goodwear A-1 I received at the beginning of 2009. For the curious, here is how it has worn after 5 1/2 years. I wear it frequently but do have plenty of other jackets, so I don't wear it all the time. And yes, I am still a bad photographer...

    Johnson Leathers custom 1930 Levi reproduction

    I agree. Very nice jacket. Since you're an hour's drive away, I wonder why you didn't just drop in and talk to Alan in person?

    The Fedora Lounge guide to Sheeplined Coats

    Was it always the case that these coats had sheep lining in the torso and not in the sleeves? That was the configuration in this coat: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?80050-Scored-a-Score at least until I had the sheep removed in favor of a less warm/bulky lining. Seemed odd to...

    Ebbets Field baseball jackets

    I happened on the store in Seattle recently. Amazing. Happily they were having a sale. I picked up a Philadelphia Hebrews 1920 jersey: http://www.ebbets.com/product/Philadelphia-Hebrews-1920-Road-Jersey By "flannel" they mean wool, BTW. I also got a cap from the SF Seals. I asked why they...

    Dehen 1920 biker sweaters. Club zip.

    I have a different Dehen wool jacket and it is of amazingly good quality. The wool is very heavy and dense, the knits strong, and the snaps good. I can't seem to find a picture of a similar one on the Web, though, and I am too lazy to take one right now. Warmer than any leather jacket I own.

    Aero Hercules Pocket

    Mine has the one chest pocket and neither of the lower flap pockets. I like it. http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?63484-Yet-another-Aero-Hercules I suppose I should post pics now that I've beat it for a couple more years.

    Great photo. But I can't stop thinking they're about to break out into "Jailhouse Rock".

    Famous People in Flight Jackets

    Exactly. We should pay extra for jackets from GW and others that are custom fit to NOT fit, to be historically accurate.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Don't tell me that's your greenhouse? Nice African tree aloe (vombii?). Solid columnar cacti selection, too. But what is the plant with the fronds you are touching?
