Enjoyed that thread with pics... thanks for sharing, Cooperson! :)
I was confused by one thing... Giles posted up a pic of an Aero jacket and said something about Mr. H dissecting it? What was that about... he wants to take the jacket apart?
I plan on visiting Aero's factory... when I do...
Thanks Nicholas! Yeah, definitely give it a go. :)
Haha... thanks Joel! Awww... but the ticket was going to be my Christmas gift to you. :D
Thanks Griff! :)
Gents,
I'm very happy with the results after using the Leatherique Rejuvenator Oil on my Aero NYPD FQHH jacket. Aero sells this stuff on their website, but I've actually been using this stuff for years on my BMW's leather seats (Leatherique is quite popular in the BMW community and the stuff...
Great news! My experiment was a success! Rejuvenator oil worked GREAT on my jacket and it didn't strip the patina. It also contains no solvent and you can apply the stuff liberally with your hands.
Here is what is stated on the bottle: "An emolient blend of ph correct proteins and...
Haha! Only time I've slept with my jacket on was the late nights I was watching TV on the couch... wife likes to keep the house cool so wearing the jacket keeps me warm and sleepy, lol. :D
Thanks for the info, Joel. Trust me when I say I wear my FQHH jacket a LOT. That's how I broke it in very quickly by wearing it at any opportunity I had.
While I agree that the goal isn't to keep leather "moist", the goal certainly isn't to keep the leather excessively dry either, as is the...
Anytime bro... happy to help! :)
Correct... on a new jacket you definitely don't need it. My Aero NYPD was made in May 2010 and arrived in my hands in June 2010. I wear the jacket all the time (including sometimes when I watch TV at night... great way to break in the FQHH). :D
Like I...
I actually just got word from Amanda that Leatherique's Rejuvinator oil that Aero Leather sells on their website is safe to use on our FQHH jackets.
In the BMW world, Leatherique's products (Pristine Clean and Rejuvinator Oil) are very popular to use on the BMW leather seats. I've used this...
Thanks for your message! I'll definitely check out your Pegasus coat and I have heard of the Eastman Brooklands Motoring coat but was concerned since it was a 3/4 length coat that there would be a risk of me sitting on the jacket when sitting down in my car seat.
Thanks for the info, Edward! Great idea about the B2. I've never actually heard of the B2... I'm still new to military style jackets and I'm mostly familiar with A2, G1, and the D3. Found a nice Schott A2 from the Vietnam era that I'm considering picking up. :)
Haha!! Well put, my friend. Jackets weren't made to throw in the back though... call me stubborn but I wear my Aero NYPD jacket anytime I'm driving in the cooler months of course. :D
That's a GREAT idea, Nick! Thank you so much!! I actually have another Aero jacket on order so this will...
Hey Seb! With my BMW I tend to drive with the windows down (prefer hearing the sound of my twin screw supercharged 6 cylinder engine instead of the radio, lol) so I find wearing my Aero NYPD jacket whenever I drive to be a good thing. :D
Car coats need to be shorter in length so you don't sit...
The seller mentions the reason for this... "the Ebay system does not allow me to put in individual postage prices and only the flat rate for the highest cost at £95 to Australia)".
You'll have to contact the seller to obtain the shipping cost to the U.S. Good luck... hope you wind up getting...
Greetings Gents,
I've been meaning to ask this question for sometime now but kept putting it off. I've always wondered... motorcycle guys get all the cool leather jacket gear with jackets dedicated to bike riding (primary reason being protection for the rider of course), but historically...
Why should you approaching 40 affect you being able to pull off wearing a black leather jacket? I have another 2+ years to go before I'm 40 and I wear my black Aero jacket everyday... will continue to do so well into my senior citizen years, lol.
