    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    There were a few forum members who spent the 70s at Max’s and CBGB in New York at the birth of punk.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Like many, I'd placed an order in Aero's anniversary discount sale last year, but I had been holding out for Pinnacle to be available; I'm glad I did, because in the time that took, I came to realize that a shearling jacket was a much bigger 'gap' for me and had them switch my order to an Irvin...

    There's no relationship between the two jackets lol.

    Fine Creek Leather

    This looks great on the other hand. It seems to me that their textile-based designs are almost universally great.

    Fine Creek Leather

    This might be the single worst leather jacket shape I've ever seen. It's truly impressive. Every single element is off! And I expect it costs a fortune.

    Aero jackets worth it?

    Haha, I'll trust you on it. I was just reminded by the title of this kind of thing.

    Aero Board Racer fit question

    Goatskin is an extremely tough leather. It's one of the strongest leathers for abrasion resistance, probably only beaten by kangaroo. Are you confusing it with lambskin?

    Aero Board Racer fit question

    OP’s jacket was years ago. That said Aero’s goatskin is fantastic. Not sure why you’re discouraging it. IMO it’s the most luxurious hide they offer.

    I’ve never had a communication issue with them, even with full order and spec changes. Maybe the email got filtered somehow? Start a new one.

    618HH Fit Check

    Oh I wasn't referring to you, but to the prevailing TFL sizing advice. Funnily enough I ended up getting a second Perfecto in the same pattern one size down, a year later because I had sort of internalized it, and realized it was definitely the wrong size decision for me.

    I'm sure Johnson can source moose leather and do a better job.

    618HH Fit Check

    They do, but not on the 618. The equivalent of a 44 Long 618 would be a 118 in 42 Long. But I maintain that he sized right and it will only become clearer as he wears the jacket and gets it wet.

    618HH Fit Check

    The people telling you to size down are telling you to ignore your own body indicating that the jacket is too small at the armpits. The fact of the matter is that 613 and 618 hides actually fit closer with break in. The big panels of leather, as they lose their stiffness, mould and drape along you.

    618HH Fit Check

    Low rise is not in right now except middle aged men buying it.

    618HH Fit Check

    No, he's just a tall guy with a long torso. I've had people insist I'm wearing low rise (which I never have in my life) when I have on high rise Sugar Canes, because I think most people in the hobby (especially on the denim side for some reason) are short.
