    Adding A little Patina To An Aero Flight Jacket

    I got quite a bit of complements from strangers the past few days. A manager at a restaurant literally walked across the waiting room to complement what a cool jacket and wanted to know how to get one.

    Adding A little Patina To An Aero Flight Jacket

    Adding A little Patina To An Aero Flight Jacket

    I'm not re selling it so, not too worried about it. Being an Aero that fits me perfect, I can always change the patches out if my taste changes. Your correct though adding patches and art work makes it a very small group of buyers.
