    Movember Mo - who's in?

    Been in since Nov 1st, first time I have ever allowed my facial hair to grow! Just started to get past the real itchy, bristly stage. Would love a handlebar, but don't think 1 month will be long enough. Read somewhere that facial hair only grows 1/2" per month, on average. Really wanted...

    Lee 101Z 23 oz selvedge jeans

    I think a new thread showing pics of denim being worn would be a great idea.

    Lee 101Z 23 oz selvedge jeans

    Top quality pics, many thanks - can't beat seeing jeans being worn to get an idea of the fit. Killer jacket in the last two pics, what is it?

    Staff changes at Aero Leather

    Hardly dare ask, but is it true that some experienced machinists also left the company?

    Has this footwear thread gone a little bit off track :D

    Aero courderoy at the hem?

    Real shame Aero have stopped the leather strip. It really adds a finishing touch to my Californian and I think it looks so much better than corduroy. Just my own opinion.

    Searching for my first leather jacket……in Japan. Aero? Rainbow Country? (w/ pics)

    Just spotted the jacket on the Rakuten site but called the 'Caboose Jacket'. http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/topjimmy/item/freewheelers831005/?s-id=borderless_browsehist_en I don't know what language transfer program they used to get from Japanese to English but the result in the...

    The long wait is over!!!

    Totally agree, it doesn't get better than that. Fit is spot on, color of the hide is very evenly matched and the style suits you very well. Enjoy the break in - that's one killer jacket! Just noticed, you have the leather strip inside the bottom hem - got that just in time! Nice :D

    how do they replace the lining of a leather jacket?

    You will need some sewing skills and a lot of patience, see here: http://sewaholic.net/fixing-up-an-old-leather-jacket-part-2/

    On the hunt for good leather!

    A very warm welcome. I think the 50's half belt would be a good choice for a bigger build - sleeve length and overall fit would be taken care of at the factory, no problem.

    With the pleat in the lining it's no longer an issue for me but thank you for the very kind offer, it's much appreciated.

    Searching for my first leather jacket……in Japan. Aero? Rainbow Country? (w/ pics)

    Very nice indeed, but I liked them all! Really like the fit of these jackets, perfect length (not too short) and the back view looks as trim as the front. So many post pictures of new half belts that look great from the front, but the back always looks big and baggy to my eye. Just a shame...

    Show us your vintage half-belts

    For a one off, custom design that's a serious bargain!

    I don't think the double side buckles, leather lined cuffs and oversize zips will be missed, but I think it's a shame to loose the 1 to 2" leather strip along the inside hem. You see many vintage jackets with the lining along the hem completely worn through in a line and I know corduroy would...

    Nice design, would you mind sharing what it cost for them to make it for you?

    I noticed that. If you type 'iron heart Aero leather' in Google images, there are still plenty of photos hanging around of that really nice slim fit cafe racer design with a collar, but they don't link back to the Iron Heart website anymore. Wonder is that was one of Will's collaborations and...
