    Anyone looking at Groups??

    I agree Schitzo. I'd said before here that Aero should have a monthly draw where an ordinary citizen (or two) could be picked at random to have their jackets made immediately. At least that would give UK people some hope. The 6 month wait is actually putting me off buying now, although I do...

    Aero Suggestions Needed

    I kind of understand the theory there, but I reckon most of us are more interested in how the jacket fits a human rather than the age or appearance of who's wearing it. I'm thinking things like where the hem lies on a pair of jeans compared to the height of the person wearing it, or whether it...

    Aero Suggestions Needed

    Sloan, it was good to go back over that link now the dust has settled. After having had some time to look through the Aero site in more detail, it was really useful to see the jackets again on real people. It would be even better to have the same for all the other jackets so that we can make...

    Aero Suggestions Needed

    You're just about to topple over the slippery slope... Best to just throw yourself into the first one, get it over with asap, and accept that you probably won't nail it until the second or third. :)

    Lovely jacket and a great review.

    Aero Cafe Racer" - Heavy Front Quarter Horsehide. Need help

    Very possibly. Dolly was cloned only about 20 miles up the road from Aero, so who knows what other top secret maniacal experiments and creations were unleashed on the leather-wearing public. :)

    She's on a well-deserved holiday. Nice to see Denny on here now.

    Black Himel Heron A1 for sale on Etsy, 41' chest

    Hi leaf. 36 sounds about right then, especially with that shoulder width. Could be one for Equality after all.

    Black Himel Heron A1 for sale on Etsy, 41' chest

    Surely with a 41" chest circumference this is more of a 38" at most?

    Maxwell v Teamster

    My inclination would be to go for the Teamster if it's length you want. I'd be wary of adding 2" or more to a short jacket when there's a very similar longer one already out there. You have a 38 Stockman, so a 38 Teamster should be trimmer than that. IMHO, the less you mess with any basic...

    The UK wait time is definitely painful, so we need to forward plan. I placed an order recently for an autumn delivery, but at least Aero don't charge you until production, so that gives us months to save up for it. Next month deliveries are just the thing of dreams for us. :(

    New teamster ... Perfect

    Great looking jacket, Fanch. Even better that you're able to wear it to work and get more use out of it. Mind you, you've only had it five minutes and now you're agonising over the next one...:) Are you tempted by Insurrection's quick turnaround to knock 4 or 5 months off the wait?

    What Song Would You Like Played At Your Funeral.

    "We Have All the Time in the World" - Louis Armstrong. A lovely song with meaningful lyrics that combines some things of significance to me - love for a good woman, something beyond this life and it's also a theme from our favourite James Bond film, OHMSS. That film is set in a part of...

    What Are You Reading

    "Alexander Hamilton" by Ron Chernow. I came across Hamilton's name whilst reading about the history of Manhattan and whilst visiting there. Given his obvious importance to early US and financial history and the fact that his name surely meant Scottish ancestry, I had to learn more. It turns out...

    Where did your user name come from??

    Mine's the abbreviation for Walt Disney World. I had three wonderful holidays there with my wife and children and since then use wdw and one of the years as my email accounts.

    Oh no! Talon zipper on Aero 38-1711-P stuck

    Ouch:eeek: I feel your pain. Let's hope someone has a simple solution that doesn't involve sending it back up.

    Aero Type 3 Jean jacket

    I tried one on a couple of weeks ago and quite liked it, although it's a much tighter fit than I'd normally wear. The suede seems pretty thick and the general impression was that it was a quality item.

    Aero Leather Barnstormer in brown FQHH

    Good buy. Looking forward to the fit pics. I feel that the weight thing is often overplayed. This 2.7kg is almost identical to my 38" Stockman, which doesn't bother me at all. The really heavy weights we often hear about (3.5kg upwards) seem to be usually steer (knowingly or not), which I...

    The third jacket I bought from Aero last week

    Looking good. That's some jacket collection you must have.
