    Modified Gloverall 512 Dufflecoat (with a twist)

    Very neat stitch work - adds nice detail to a plain duffle coat.

    My new Zip sleeve Highwayman

    Nice variation on the standard Highwayman Colorado, looks a great fit too. Enjoy the breaking in period - I can smell the new horsehide from here :)

    Vintage Half-Belt in the house - Nice Grain!

    Brilliant, thanks Jan. I did try stretching the sleeves but I was doing it dry, got an extra 1/4" but is soon went back again. Will definitely give it try before I do any thing more serious with the cuffs. Cheers

    Vintage Half-Belt in the house - Nice Grain!

    Would like to see the photo Seb - I can only find pics of A2 style jackets with knitted cuffs.

    Vintage Half-Belt in the house - Nice Grain!

    Thanks for taking a look Mr Peacoat - here is the pic. As you can see, the sleeves really are short! I just wonder what the chances are of Aero finding some hide the exact shade brown that looks 60 years old. Would hate to spoil a lovely jacket like this.

    Vintage Half-Belt in the house - Nice Grain!

    Thanks Guys: Seb - I did think of knitted cuffs, but thought they might look a bit odd on a coat like this. oldcrow82 - Thanks, I was seriously thinking of just keeping my hands in the pockets but it really looks short with them out. HD - I'm always searching for that one perfect vintage...

    Vintage Half-Belt in the house - Nice Grain!

    Just managed to snag this really nice old half-belt and just had to share some pics of the lovely graining on it. The label is missing, so I don't know anything about it, but judging by the grain I would think it has to be horsehide. As for the age, I'm guessing 1940's but I would welcome...

    New Aero 50's Half Belt Deluxe (with pics)

    Absolutely stunning Half belt, beautiful hide and some great features. The leather strip along the bottom and the corduroy hand warmer pockets are a must for any new Aero IMO. The detachable collar is an inspired addition - looks like two different jackets for the price of one. The Chisholm...

    Do my shoes and jacket have to match?

    Just wondered, what color shoes do you guys prefer to wear with a Peacoat?

    My GW A-2 Bronco after 1 year of wear

    Does look more like russet than seal but it is one beautiful A2 - perfect fit and breaking in very nicely. Thanks for sharing.

    Opinions on the fit of my Aero 50's Half-Belt Requested

    44" chest and a 30" waist - wow! Many of us on this site can only dream of a 30" waist :) To be honest, the jacket does look loose around the waist but with your dimensions I think you might really struggle to get a trim fit all over with Aero's standard patterns. I think the 30's halfbelt...
