    Questions about Thedi

    On the Thedi FB page, I see lots of models that I don't see on the regular website- mostly, these look like work coat patterns which I really like (particularly in the similar to battered tan and olive hides). These are also jackets Thedi offers, right? It's not that I'm thinking of ordering...

    Torn zipper tapes

    I've just found that the zipper tapes have come away from the fabric and frayed (badly) on a Aero cafe racer and my beloved 10-year-old Highwayman. I'm going to have to send them away as soon as the apocalypse has been averted. There should be a machine that re-stamps tape on to zippers...

    Lining Repair

    I have an Aero Stockman that I was trying to shift but might have to end up keeping. The lining is a blue, black and white tartan which has just (after 7 years) managed to wear through at two spots in the lower back. The wear looks like it would eventually follow a horizontal line a little way...

    Sizing up CR

    I'm going to order one of these from Aero shortly. I'd take a size 40 Highwayman; a previous Cafe Racer did not fit in a size 40, so was moved on. Have any loungers who would 'normally' take a 40 in another pattern sized up to a 42? Would it be necessary to go up more than one size?

    Anyone have pics of Battered Seal HH?

    Would be curious to see it- I just might be thinking of a Cafe Racer from Aero in this hide (once I have thought carefully on this matter, of course...). J.

    Aero Board Racer Fit

    I'd usually take a size 40 in suit jacket/Aero jacket sizes and am pretty much an oblong shape (34 inch waist). Previous cafe racer jacket didn't work in a 40 (about an inch too short and maybe an inch too tight) so I sold it to my favourite barman after struggling with it for a couple of...

    Word to the Wise- Aero Pocket Modifications

    Just received a Teamster in seal jerky HH, and made the mistake of getting it with larger inside pockets- these make the jacket uncomfortable to wear and really have affected the line of it. The stitching also seems to be coming away on the inside lowest edge, which is a bit worrying. Ugh. My...

    Teamster Advice

    I'm pulling the trigger on one in seal brown jerky. Would you guys advise shortening it (I'm a size 40), asking for a trimmer fit, etc. etc.? I'm fairly sold on August-style cuffs. I'm thinning the herd- the LHB, the SB and the Stockman are now in the classifieds as I'm off to warmer climes.

    1920s Work Coat Collar

    I've noticed that this collar (and those of the Himel Canuck and one of Whitefeather mfg's designs) have the lining visible on the lower portion of the lapel. I think this looks really good and wondered if it would be possible on a Teamster or Stockman collar- and also what the motivation was...

    Where are these from, and to where? Is it this seam to the corresponding one?

    Teamster Questions.

    Folks, I am weak and easily led and have decided (almost) on a size 40 Teamster in tumbled cordovan. What I want to know is this- how long is this style? I have a Stockman which is the longest Aero in my possession. I am hoping that a Teamster would be similar in length (or a touch shorter)...
