    Sears Hercules Halfbelt

    Welcome to the forum Forrest. I do like halfbelts and yours is a beauty. It's not often you see one of that age in such great condition - looks hardly worn at all, almost as if it's been in storage for 50 years or more. A great fit too! Nice find, enjoy! Cheers

    Pics of my new Lost Worlds Suburban

    It's good to see leather jackets from other manufacturers - it looks very well made indeed. Would love to see it again when it's broken in. Many congrats and enjoy!

    What's the best leather peacoat?

    First time I've seen moose hide! Looks good quality, I'm just not that sure about blue leather.

    what jacket you would definitely buy again and which would you avoid

    I've been considering getting an A2 for a while now, could I ask why you rule out Aero and Eastman?

    Brown fqhh or brown oil pull fqhh?

    Hi Ted - It's a personnel preference, but I would go with FQHH over oil pull every time. As hides go, Aero's brown heavy front quarter horse is the 'Fido's gonads' :)

    Aero 1930s Halfbelt Slim Fit / Luftwaffe clone planned

    Hello Rudie and welcome to the forum. Your jacket sounds good but I would be very interested to hear what Aero say about changing the arm design. Most Aero patterns tend to have low armholes and quite full upper arms and I was always under the impression they couldn't change that. Could you...

    My Cheyenne

    Great jacket Dav, the style suits you and the fit is spot on. I've only ever held a sample of Aero's heavy steer, but I was shocked at the weight and thickness of it. A long style like the Cheyenne must have some serious heft to it - it must feel like you're stepping into suitcase! Truly a...

    Concerning those hardcore jackets

    That's a great looking jacket, I don't think I've seen one before - similar to the Highwayman but definitely different. Love the overall design of it and the color of the hide is stunning. Also, a perfect fit - very, very nice indeed! Thanks for sharing.

    Concerning those hardcore jackets

    Mr Peacot is correct and here is the proof: http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTXGCDi4BLb8-vO_4OJGxIUR7x1kzbWJ_Mb56jO1QaH5y_riFVnEw The main problem with this particular hide was that if you got a panel where the horn was then you had a rather unsightly hole showing ;)

    Aero NYPD jacket mod revealed... feedback requested

    Hello Navin - The buttons on your jacket look fine to me, I doubt if anyone would even notice the difference in the two types. Glad Aero looked after you so well - they are a top quality company and service like that shows it. Sorry to hear of your health problems - hope you are soon in the...

    Newbie - Hi

    Hello Alladin and welcome to the forum. Before you go ahead and order a leather jacket, I would highly recommend you email Amanda at Aero and ask her to send you some samples. There is no substitute for handling and smelling the different hides - I would definitely try and get hold of the heavy...

    My Aero 30s Halfbelt, in brown FQHH

    Very nice indeed - I do love halfbelts. The jacket looks almost fresh out the box to me - maybe tried on, but not much more than that. Look forward to seeing the pics. Cheers
