    Project Navin Aero Jacket #2 now underway...

    Guten Tag Oliver! Thanks for your message here. I will definitely look at physical therapy for my knee plus I have a few simple exercises that the doctor gave me to do at home that should help me too. What specific sport were you a professional sportsman for? My congratulations to you on...

    **NEWS EXTRA**Good Wear flying jackets take vintage authenticity to new heights!!

    Ahhh.... that's good then. I was going to say if you preferred to wear sweaters underneath this new Goodwear Ventura and if the fitment wasn't to your satisfaction then that could be a potential reason to return the jacket but since you have your Aero Californian that you can use with thick...

    **NEWS EXTRA**Good Wear flying jackets take vintage authenticity to new heights!!

    Hi Cooperson... the jacket looks AMAZING!!!! It definitely fits you perfectly. I noticed you're wearing a shirt underneath the jacket... do you see yourself ever wearing a sweater underneath the jacket and if so then how is the jacket fitment with a sweater on?

    Thanks for the info, Richard. :) Interesting point you made about the cuffs being quite thick. If someone were to see your jacket in person would the cuffs look noticeably thicker than the rest of the arm sleeves?

    Hey Andy! Thank you so much for your kind wishes, bro. Thanks for the good wishes on my project too. I know this will be a fun project and something new and different... provided of course that Aero can make this project a reality. Thanks for the heads up on Aero being back in the office...

    Project Navin Aero Jacket #2 now underway...

    Hi RP! Thank you so much for your message and good wishes on my recovery. My knee is definitely feeling better but still weaker than my good knee... I may look at physical therapy to try and strengthen it, plus I'm scheduled to see a hematologist to make sure that my bleeding issues in my...

    Project Navin Aero Jacket #2 now underway...

    Hi Richard! Thank you so much for your picture and great explanation... it makes sense to me now... definitely a great idea to prevent the lining sag that I do see to some extent on my other leather jackets. Was there an extra charge to have the leather extended inside the cuffs?

    Back now from my week long Bermuda cruise trip Sorry for the late reply... just got back from the cruise I went on with my family. Sorry to hear you were on this medication. I will NEVER take this medicine again. I can finally walk again after having had my knee drained of a lot of blood...

    Puzzled

    Aero definitely isn't selling "off the rack" jackets, nor did they sell me one. I had to provide all sorts of measurements to them mainly because of my surgically-repaired abdomen/tummy area. As Ace said, you can always provide them whatever measurements you want plus the ones they...

    Horsehide beltman belt arrived

    Where exactly on the screw tips do you put the superglue? On the circular edges of the screw where it touches the leather? I couldn't even tell you had superglue on the screw tips in your pictures.

    Ooops... sorry about that... will definitely try and post that soon. I'm leaving for Bermuda early tomorrow morning so if I don't get to it today I'll get to it the following weekend when I return. :)

    Horsehide beltman belt arrived

    Beautiful belt, Griff!! It will definitely match your upcoming aged tan steerhide jacket (not sure if that was a possible reason for you to choose this particular color for your belt). Congrats! :)

    LOL... you called me Narvin. :D Hey Oliver... just saw your post only now since I was hospitalized all day. Thanks for the info about the other colors of garbadine. Question for you, bro... the olive garbadine is referred to as "olive drab garbadine"... what does drab mean? Thanks, Navin

    Project Navin Aero Jacket #2 now underway...

    Just got home from hospital Spent the day today in the hospital... after undergoing various radiology tests it was finally determined I have no ACL tear or any other tear in my knee, nor any fracture, so I can finally start trying to walk again (been on crutches for over a week now). :)...

    My Newest Leather Jacket... the famous GriffDeLaGriff Arturo Jacket...

    Thanks John! OMG... you're right... Griff does look like Sting. It's funny... many Italian people I meet often tell me I look like one of their Italian singers... "Fiorello" is the name of the Italian singer. So basically Sting gave a nice leather jacket to Fiorello. :D

    Leather Police Jackets

    Nice police jacket, Andy. :) I can't see the badges too well in the pics but from which country's police department is this jacket from?

    A2s in your collection

    That's neat you were able to trace the vets based on the chest name strips. Out of curiousity, how expensive are original A2's to purchase? I would assume they're super expensive and worth quite a bit of money in the collector market.
