    Getting a jacket copied

    You could ask Byson Leather - they did a complex repair on a G1 for me very neatly and some of the renovations they show on their website are practically re- makes. http://www.bysonleather.co.uk

    Shrink to fit tips?

    You must have seen this? http://www.aeroleatherclothing.com/upfiles/LVC%20SHRINK%20TO%20FIT%20GUIDE.PDF My Gustins recently 'benefited' from a 60 degree wash and a hot tumble dry but that's pretty drastic - they were sanforised but still shrank a bit. I did it to max the shrinkage before...

    Golden Era Dog Names

    When I was growing up in the 50's and 60's the local dogs were, Penny, Trixie, Simon, Rex, Kim, Butch, Paddy and Diddy.

    Please help identify this 'suit liner'

    Quite well insulated. I found a few references to it by searching after posting here. Apparently it's a liner for an RAF waterproof suit for use in lifeboats.

    How many jackets do you have to sew to be an expert?

    What I found rather sad was that during the rather vitriolic Aero Threads 1 and 2 argument and testosterone took over and they didn't do the usual kind and traditional thing and wish a happy birthday to members whose birthdays are listed on the day at the bottom of the home page - I noticed...

    Aero Windward

    I've read somewhere that a number of makers made this style. I've got one with a Cooper label. Does anyone know who else made similar jackets and also did Montgomery Ward make their own jackets or did they commission them?

    Aero Leather Clothing trial update
