    New Black Aero 1930's Half Belt (with fur collar attachment)!

    Mouton is a real fur collar. I just prefer a smaller sized fur collar for my jackets!

    New Black Aero 1930's Half Belt (with fur collar attachment)!

    I think the jacket looks good. The only thing I don't like about the Aero fur collars, for my personal taste is they are too large. I like the smaller fur collars like the ones on the early G-1's and some of the the new military issues I see now. If I were ordering a fur collar attachment from...

    I like the collar on your Enfield. When I ordered my Aero Custom Half-Belt I requested a smaller sized collar because I always thought theirs (Aero's) was too large. ( I call it Dracula Style)!

    Aero Selkirk Jacket

    If you don't care for the cargo pockets you can always tell Aero you want the slash pockets instead! It's really just a Half-Belt with some tweeks and mods.

    Aero Selkirk Jacket

    I always liked the G-1 and the Half Belt styles, so I just combined them and sent in my order. The Russet goatskin is a reddish brown(I have other jackets with Seal goat so I wanted a change) and when I put my re-order in, I changed the lining to the 3-Season cotton Berry-Brown Tartan. I always...

    Aero Selkirk Jacket

    The Selkirk jacket pictured on e-Bay is the actual jacket I ordered from Mark, and sent back because I ordered it in Russet goat and it came in Seal by mistake. I just received my re-order (in Russet goatskin) and it is a beautiful jacket. Very satisfied with the results. Breaking it in every...

    Beating up your Aero -- advice sought

    The Aero Selkirk jacket that is on e-bay is the jacket I custom ordered from AeroUSA and sent back because it was the wrong color goatskin. I wanted it in Russet goat, but it came in Seal goat. After a very long wait (Not going to mention how long) I finally received my jacket (In Russet...

    Beating up your Aero -- advice sought

    I just received my Aero 50's Custom Half Belt in Russet Goat. It's just a little stiff, but my job consists of a lot of driving and working outside so I have been breaking it in by wearing it about 8 hrs a day.So just wear it and enjoy!

    JACKET - TRACKIT (For members burning to get their ordered jacket on their back)

    Didn't say it was OK! Just glad the wait is over. I actually received my initial order in 9 months, but was wrong color jacket. My re-order took another 16 months which is what i didn't understand. Sent e-mails and was polite, never got angry or never sent a hostile reply. Finally e-mailed...

    JACKET - TRACKIT (For members burning to get their ordered jacket on their back)

    Well, after 25 Months (original order Dec 2009, Re-Order Oct 2010) my jacket has finally arrived! It was a long wait and a little frustrating, but it's finally here. So you guys that have waited 5 to 6 months and are getting itchy, well that sounds like a cake walk to me! The jacket is...

    In my opinion it is just as nice (actually nicer) than the Aero LHB, if you prefer goatskin over horsehide. It would not be as warm as the standard Aero LHB, but truley a great jacket in my humble opinion. And I do own a Aero Cossack HH jacket, to compare these two quality jackets side by side!

    They run a little tight. I wear a 42/Short in a sport jacket. I am 5'7" and 165 Lbs. I always wear a sweater or sweatshirt under my jacket and I have a size Large in this jacket. It felt a little tight at first, until I wore it for a while, then it conformed to my body and now it feels very...

    My favorite Keeper utilility jacket is my Roughneck/Oil Driller jacket from Cockpit. Thick goatskin and nice pebble grain. Leather is soft and just slightly weathered at the edges. It's by far my most go to jacket!
