    Buco J-100 in Black Shinki by Diamond Dave

    I agree, brass with patina looks grand. I have a couple of zippo lighters and 2 nice golf putters that have aged beautifully.

    Buco J-100 in Black Shinki by Diamond Dave

    I know! I give myself headaches once I start compiling a hit list....it's endless. The best I can do is try to prioritise, and then then the leather/ lining choices come into it and it just gets worse.....

    Aero Leather alpaca jacket lining

    Gday Benny, I'm looking at one with Alpaca. Originally I was going to go for a funky tartan, but I'm gravitating towards keeping the alpaca, makes for a decent winter jacket. I just have no point of reference for how warm warm is? It's like I had heard heaps about how heavy and stiff the fqhh...

    Yeah Chris.....I'm thinking I probably need to buy a black jacket.....just one?;)

    I agree, both quite striking all the same. I really like the tweed Cunuk, but I think I would get more use out of the aero....

    Buco J-100 in Black Shinki by Diamond Dave

    I know with the Buco d pockets it was fairly normal to have mixed hardware, and it looks great, and is period correct. I'm also reliably informed that the original Buco j-100 style always had a nickel snap, regardless of the zips etc used. I'm pretty sure that's right, someone with more...

    You sure about that?

    Aero wool halfbelt V Himel bros wool Canuck

    I agree Benny. I'm just really surprised that the majority don't seem to care for that style. I've liked it since day 1....Then again, I always wonder why people pay top dollar for new cars and end up with a Volvo or a Citroen. Usually in ghastly colours....horses for courses I guess!

    Buco J-100 in Black Shinki by Diamond Dave

    I hadn't seen the nickel collar snap. That's interesting. I've had a few nickel hardware jackets, and they all look cool, I guess its a bit like my preference for brown leather, just a habit that I have.

    Buco J-100 in Black Shinki by Diamond Dave

    Just got these photos from Dave. I'm having a hard time deciding which leather to go with. I don't really wear much black, but I,wanted to see something with good brass hardware, as I prefer brass to nickel. I'm looking at a few of his brown leathers,and they are all superb. Now, seeing another...

    That's a beauty at a great price. I would be surprised if it doesn't sell pretty quickly.

    I actually had the Aero letterman in green with brown horse sleeves, no collar. It was my first Aero, a good Ebay pick up. Moved it on some time ago to fund another jacket. I've always liked the Melton wool, and the nice dark green is one of my fave colours.

    Aero wool halfbelt V Himel bros wool Canuck

    Yes, I googled it, and Lo and behold, it led me straight back here. Sent WDW a PM. He loves his, and has said he has just started getting a fair bit of use out of it. I like the green and brown. I'm actually surprised at the lack of love in the comments. I'm happy to hear people's opinions, just...

    I That would look sharp. I saw a pic of a 30s half belt in an emerald green Melton. Fantastic, would certainly take some bravado to pull off.
