    Aero to make jackets for new Hollywood WW2 Film, "The Monuments Men"

    I'm no expert, far from it, but I recently bought the Quartermaster A2 from Aero. It's seal brown Steerhide, mid brown cuffs (at my request) and one of the nicest jackets I've bought (and I've bought a fair few!). Sadly I'm not the right shape for the jacket, so it's going back, but to say their...

    Sou'west Chunkie roll-neck gansey arrived this week and it's great. Wore it all day Wednesday and I'm very, very pleased. I think, after wearing it for the days, I could have gone for an inch longer, but it fits great as is, and is exactly as requested. Their service has already been commented...

    Help! finding a navy overcoat

    John Lewis in the UK have one, which they're calling a 'Sherlock', presumably because of the one sported in the BBC show (although I believe that is Belstaff). Looks good to me: http://www.johnlewis.com/336652/Product.aspx They have a cheaper wool blend blue herringbone double breasted as...

    New Aero A-2

    I'll post as soon as I have a despatch notification. I went for the Seal Brown Steerhide (never had Steerhide, so I thought it would make a nice change) in a 48".

    Waxed Cotton Jacket Maintenance Question

    I've got a Barbour Border jacket that's over 20 years old, never been re-waxed and still going strong, if not as waterproof as it once was! I did hear you should re-proof them after a few years, as the longer you leave it (as with mine), it becomes harder to do properly.

    Show us your broken in aero steer or fqhh jacket!

    I do a couple of days a week in London, but I'm based just north of Manchester. Sadly, my other half's jacket was to big for her, so it's got to go back.

    Show us your broken in aero steer or fqhh jacket!

    Thanks Graemsay. I've got a FQHH Highwayman with a thick tartan wool blanket lining in a 48" chest and it's more or less spot on. I usually take a 46" chest suit jacket these days (48" when I ordered the Highwayman) as I've lost some weight, and the Highwayman fits a lot better now! I'm just...

    Horween USA and Aero Leather Joint Statement

    Yep, MD is for Managing Director. Usually the boss of the Board of Directors (e.g. Finance Director, Sales Director). I think in the USA you guys use variations of President, but it's basically the same thing. Some owners call themselves MD, sometimes it's an appointed position by the owner, or...
