    A long time coming

    I think my first post on TFL was a WTB in the Classifieds for a Wayfarer jacket. That was all the way back in 2014. I really had my heart set on one just like the one pictured on Aero's website, in dark tumbled cordovan FQHH with a lot of grain, you know the one: It wasn't for three years...

    Why Should I Buy A Vanson?

    About the sleeve cuffs, they design them that way deliberately. The Mike (the owner) explains the construction and design of the Model A jacket, and mentions the design of the cuff, right around 4:10: This one is fun too:

    I'm definitely not an expert, but I don't see any reason to suspect that it's not authentic.

    Cal-Leathers Shop Visit, Ventura CA.

    Really nice! It fits you very well. I'd get the lining redone by Cal, and keep it.

    Questions about Aero’s Battered Tan Horsehide

    Vanson Oxford in octagon leather
