    Anyone with a corduroy lined jacket?

    Butte, thank you and others for your sage replies. My old soft cowhide jacket with satin lining in the body and sleeves I had for many years slips on and off, but conducts the chill quickly to the point of every time the mercury dropped I swore I would get something different. I don't mind my...

    Is this a draw on which is warmer?

    Anyone with a corduroy lined jacket?

    Basically looking to outfit an aero for DC weather. Alpaca was too itchy and shearling is too much. I'm left with moleskin, corduroy or the heavy stroke for the body, and either moleskin or cord for the sleeves. The weight of the cord is a good point, hadn't considered it. Anybody else with...

    Thurston Italian Vicenza Horsehide Full Grain Veg.-Tanned Horsehide for Aero Jackets

    Moleskin is a great idea. How does it compare to corduroy or heavy stroke lined jackets for warmth?

    Thurston Italian Vicenza Horsehide Full Grain Veg.-Tanned Horsehide for Aero Jackets

    Carrie, if I find alpaca itchy, but I want a warmer lining, can the alpaca be ordered with a layer of cotton drill over it? Or would you you say heavy strome wool is the way to go?

    Vanson Enfield in Octagon, size 44, worn once

    I purchased the Vanson Enfield size 44 in Octagon from Bighatlaw. He was a pleasure to do business with, but alas it has turned out to be a little too big for my tastes. I take a size 42 sport coat, and would venture to say this runs true to size. So it's back on the market. His measurements...

    Aero Maxwell FQHH Leather Jacket Size 40 Cordovan

    I agree. I had a size 42 maxwell fit jacket some time ago and the pit to pit was a bit over 24". That may have been a bit of a ladder one, but under 20" sounds like a 36/38 or so to me. http://mundial.co.jp/ebay/size/sizejacket02.png

    REPAIR/REPLACE lining in AERO Jacket

    After calling around to a few recommended places I ended up sending my highwayman back to Aero, where it is presently getting relined. I only would have saved about $100 domestically, and I have the confidence in Aero relining their own product. Plus I preserve the label and tags, which help...

    I'm in Virginia. When my nephew got turned down for a University near Edinburgh, the family couldn't understand why I was sooooo disappointed!
