    Aero Pre-Production Sample Jackets

    No one will say who lives in the fair town of Hawick and might be or have been connected to Aero.

    Aero Pre-Production Sample Jackets

    Are you abe to say if you know of anyone with a connection to Aero who lives in Hawick? Not suggesting that there is any link to this case of course. That would be uncontentious.

    Aero Pre-Production Sample Jackets

    Quite a good thought perhaps. There does seem to have been quite a close relationship between the ancien regime at Aero and MM. Although that's a lot of jackets to have waiting to go.

    Aero Pre-Production Sample Jackets

    Except it's made from lovely brown Horween FQHH and not from whatever the Drifter is made with.

    The New Alexander .... 1st the Detroit (warning picture heavy)

    Aero does one too. Can't see the attraction myself. http://www.aeroleatherclothing.com/product-detail.php?id=1254

    Alexander Leathers

    ProteinNerd. Around four to six months was what Holly at Aero said a month ago. According to her mother they are having a struggle dealing with issues that the previous management neglected. As well as having to remake jackets which were sold as FQHH when they weren't. For what it's worth...

    Comparison of Type A-1 jackets (GW and ELC .50 Cal)

    That jacket has been on the sale page for a long time, before the management change. I wasn't sure if it was an abortion or just something different. But thinking of it just as a windcheater jacket it looked quite nice, and a good price. So I enquired about it and found out that it's nearly 27"...

    aero brown FQHH hercules 38 long

    No that would not be a good idea. For the very small saving on free listing weekends it really isn't worth it though.

    aero brown FQHH hercules 38 long

    I find it's better to sell BIN rather than auction; and if you do use auction a high starting price is likely to mean either it remains unsold or someone will pop up at the end and buy it for that. So you might as well offer BIN and stipulate that all offers below a figure you think is taking...

    Aero leather Brown V Vintage brown.

    Yes and on a coat I had made a couple of years ago under the old management a couple of the panels were different shades too. Didn't happen with the older ones though.

    Aero leather Brown V Vintage brown.

    If you ask for samples you can see for yourself. I've got an oil pull HWM from four or five years ago and its not that dark. Might just be the pictures though the leather supplied changes a bit over time. Vintage brown is the same as tumbled brown and is a lot softer, and for me perhaps...

    converting a leather jacket to a winter jacket

    I've been thinking of buying a HWM on eBay and getting a shearling lining put in for a while. The black ones don't seem to be fetching a lot right now. I reckon everyone else might be thinking the same thing though judging by these comments. Has anyone asked how much Aero would charge yet? I can...

    The side adjusting strap on my Highwayman keep coming loose

    Don't they still? I have that on my HWM which is less than four years old and if you can't loop them back they'll come loose in a very little time.

    converting a leather jacket to a winter jacket

    The Aero shearling lined coats don't have it in the sleeves. I had a shearling FQHH Barnstormer until recently, and that was a heavy coat, and maybe because the hide is cold in winter it didn't really feel as warm as my trusty twenty five year old Cirrus B3. It might have been the hassle of...

    new Aero a-2 pattern

    When they were churning them out at the rate that they were needed the idea that they were all exactly to spec and stich perfect is risible. They would have used what they could get their hands on. There was a war on after all and a lot more cattle were being slaughtered than horses.

    Aero summer jacket in deer skin!

    I use saddle soap with light coloured leather which shows the dirt.

    Aero Stuart - no more!

    Well I'm not championing them by any stretch. In fact I've had my issues with Amanda's ideas of fit in the past. But at the offer price I couldn't resist, and the jacket I bought from them is a very good fit. Most of my Aeros have been 42 and can be a bit tight in the shoulders but fit...

    new Alexander 30's halfbelt

    That's the £500 jacket not the £300 special offer?
