    Which Tanker jacket?

    Went for the RM one in the end. Reason being I'm quite picky on fit and at least the RM,if not ok, will only need to go back to London as opposed to the US. Got a mail back from BR with details requested and price however, add in postage, import charges and VAT and it's about the same cost as...

    Fit advice for new member

    I had the same issue with an Aero Sheene which, in reality is a Cafe Racer with a collar. The chest and shoulders fit perfectly however, the hem was way to large. I could wear it and had some great comments on it. Unfortunately, probably like yourself, I was very conscious of the hem width...

    Which Tanker jacket?

    ^^ Thank you for that, They do look good but for me personally, I'd prefer no badges.

    Which Tanker jacket?

    Bought myself an ATF Tanker jacket around 18 months ago, it's great for just knocking about, wearing to go to the shop or the gym etc but, with me being a picky old geezer, not up to scratch quality wise to wear when going out to town for example. So looking at maybe buying a higher end...

    Aero Elvis vs J106

    OP, few pics of the fit of a J-106 here.....https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/the-%E2%80%98mongrel%E2%80%99-aero.106144/ This was just out of the box and although the jacket has a KOTR back, the fit characteristics are of a J-106, I'm a 43" chest and a 33" waist at the navel. The jacket...

    What Aero jacket is this?

    In what way? I had the zippers on my Sheene put on the top of the sleeves.

    What Aero jacket is this?

    Definitely a Sheene, As @MrProper said, pocket configuration can be changed at time of ordering. The Sheene is a Cafe Racer (which I believe is a slimmer cut than a Seven) with either a Highwayman collar or an August collar which is smaller.

    The ‘Mongrel’ Aero.

    Kept it simple, olive drill in the body and olive sateen for the sleeves.

    The ‘Mongrel’ Aero.

    Thought this warranted a thread of its own even though the pics are posted where I was asking advice re leather choice. Not an original idea I know but hey ho A J-106 with a KOTR back in black Badalassi. Couple of anomalies from the order, zips on back of sleeves as opposed to the top ( no...

    Advice on leather choice for a MC jacket please.

    A couple of anomalies from the order but the jacket (in my eyes) is stunning. Zips should have been on top of the sleeves but can easily live with then where they are, studs should have been brass. but can easily be changed. Off up to Aero Monday with my Sheene to have a couple of inches taken...

    Advice on leather choice for a MC jacket please.

    Just received a mail saying the black Badalassi has arrived with Aero so my mongrel MC jacket will be put into production today. A J106 front with a King of The Road back, antique brass hardwear apart from the studs that'll be in brass. Hem is being reduced by 4 ins from my Sheene and all other...

    The Deck Jacket thread.

    Slight de-rail from the thread but.....where is that sweater from? Been googling the hell out of button neck sweaters but can't find much that appeals. Thanks.

    Choosing the jacket

    If it's a flying jacket type you're looking for it might be worth looking at British Sheepskin. I'm a 43' chest so ordered a 44" and it buried me. Went down and they exchanged it for a size 40" which fits perfectly. They also make bespoke sizes...

    Regular CXL HH Vs CXL FQHH

    I think it's just a normal human trait for favouritism of any specific brand to come and go. Like yourself, I spent hours looking around on here at different manufacturers and styles. We're all different and something that someone thinks is the dogs nuts wouldn't be given houseroom by someone...

    Recent Wested Quality?

    Bought a couple of Wested jackets around 18 months ago, a Captain America and a Skyfall. The Skyfall made me realise the shrunken lambskin wasn't for me and I never wore it but sold it on. The Captain America style suited the look I was after perfectly and the fit was great. The quality on both...

    British Sheepskin Flying Jkt.

    Bought a cross zip flying jacket from British Sheepskin about January time this year. Ordered a size 44 and when it came it was outstanding! Apart from the fact it would go around me twice :rolleyes: Spoke to Gary (the owner) and he said he'd be happy to alter it. What with one thing and...
