    New Aero Jacket – Lining question

    I second Fanch's suggestion. I have cotton drill, moleskin, and my teamster has cord in the body and moleskin sleeves. If the jacket style has tighter arms as in a premier fit, I could understand the sateen, but it is also less durable. My favorite and most durable lining is moleskin. Not...

    Aero CR too tight

    It's worthwhile sending an email to Aero to find out. I suspect with shipping you would be better off selling it. What size is it? It is not a perishable good in that a year or so properly stored might allow you to get back to your "fighting weight". Best of luck!

    Buttoned winter jacket draft?

    I suspect it's not possible. I have speced my teamster as a winter coat, with storm cuffs. The final order has the finished leather as with the highwayman.

    Best AERO Leather jacket for a Big Man

    Thunder Bay, without shearling. The belt to cinch things down might work well for him.

    Black Vincenza Board Racer, Grain from Day One

    Absolutely Awsome. Just goes to show how well the snugger fitting styles develop beautiful creasing.

    Consider Teamster for my first aero, have some questions.

    Eggcarton has a dark seal premier work coat that looks fantastic. I am personally careful about long black leather jackets. As my wife says, they make me look like I might be up to no good.....

    Aero Sheene - What did you learn from your order?

    Protein, I have a size 42 Sheene in seal Vicenza with 0.5" added to each side below the arms, modeled after pawine's cafe racer. 27" back and 27" arms. I'm 5'11", 185 lbs. I also have an August collar, and a front yoke as with Aero's pioneer. I would definitely do slimmer arms, as the...

    FS 2013 Triumph Scrambler

    I love my '13 Bonnie. 45-50 mpg, enough power, nimble, and my aftermarket preadators sound great without giving me a headache. I could see adding a bigger bike for long distance touring, but I don't see letting her go.

    Japanese vs Scotland quality

    Japanese vs Scotland quality

    My experience that I've commented on is that the type of leather matters. I have 2 cafe racers, both ordered and came out with identical measurements. The heavy steer one fits more snug and has perfect sleeves. The Vicenza one has more room to layer and the sleeves feel about a half inch...
