    Hey, Filson owners

    On the contrary, both the lighter fabrics are better for rain protection than the Tin Cloth. Reason being is that they both have a much tighter weave. The Tin cloth is definitely thicker, but has a much looser weave necessitated by the larger thread strands of the fabric. Forget where I read...

    Hey, Filson owners

    Don't know Bob. I will say that my Medium is cut large enough to fit a decent thickness sweater underneath. Lenny

    Hey, Filson owners

    http://www.lewiscreek.com/ I have the Stockton Barn Jacket. Awesome quality. Nicer than even Barbour. You can find them for good prices on eBay. Lenny

    Hey, Filson owners

    I've worn my Lewis Creek in absolute downpours and remained bone dry inside it. I'd contact Filson if I were you. Lenny

    G & B Raider Anybody?

    I've been eyeing this jacket for a while now. http://www.gibson-barnes.com/Raider/id/18/cat_id/18/prod_id/65/ Anybody have one? What's the fit like? What's the lining like? I'd probably go for the cowhide one as I like my jackets to look aged after some wear. I know this site is...

    Whoever made it, it's a very cool jacket. Lenny

    help with Aero cafe racer order

    One thing I learned on my Highwayman: A G1 pocket behind an exterior breast pocket makes for a very thick bulge. If you plan to wear this very close, this could make it very uncomfortable on both sides of the chest. I'd suggest only one outside and one inside pocket, on opposite sides...

    Information request on the size for aeroleather jacket

    Welcome to the site. You'll probably get this same exact recommendation from others: Call Amanda or Will at Aero and discuss your concerns with them. They are experts at figuring out your exact size based on what you tell them. Just be honest with all measurements and tell them if you want...

    Motorcycle Jacket,color?

    I believe that chapter 3, section 4, paragraph 2.3.1 of the Motorcyclist's Handbook stipulates the following: "All motorcycle jackets, be they leather or fabric, shall be black. Failure to comply with this regulation will result in the mandatory ridiculing of said offender by every other...

    New Lost Worlds Suburban

    Your brother in law should definitely return the jacket to Aero. My Highwayman had to go back for some missed stitches, and attachment of the bottom corderoy strip which they forgot. Some of the stitching is also not the straightest, but certainly not like the stitching in your last pic...

    Vanson Enfield in Cordovan Horsehide - pics!

    Spectacular Jimmer!

    Anyone get their new Vanson delivered recently?

    Couple of comments. With respect to HD's post above: The hide on my Enfield puts the hide on my Aero FQHH Highwayman to shame. When I put it on and stepped on the bathroom scale, I was 20 lbs heavier! :eeek::D It's so thick I wonder if it'll ever break in. This might not be fair as my Aero...

    Aero & Lostworlds Horse Hides

    No, the collar flap is very rigid and doesn't flap at all. I think I could even ride with it up and it'd stay up. But when it's down, it lies nice and flat. Great design collar and just the right size. Lenny

    Aero & Lostworlds Horse Hides

    Don't know much about Lost Worlds as I've never handled one. I do own a FQHH Aero Horsehide jacket though which is beautiful. Also, I've read over and over again that Aero's FQHH is the best out there. The Lost World FQHH apparently takes forever to break in, doesn't take on as nice a...

    Old Highwayman will ride again!

    DUDE! That's the perfect jacket. It's exactly what I want my Highwayman to look like some day. Mine is FQHH so I wonder if it'll look as good as yours. I need to find an alley filled with bricks and sand and roll around in it. : ) Take lots more pix when it comes back. Lenny

    Help build my Highwayman, please!

    I'm with Peacoat on the G1 vertical pockets inside. One thing I learned with my first Highwayman; if you only get 1 G1 inner pocket, you might want to consider putting it on the opposite of the outer zipped chest pocket (or vice versa). Reason being, having both pockets on the same side aligns...
