Now, I am thinking if Aero is happy to fix...

Found this jacket on ebay last Saturday, the jacket still needs break in and doesn't show much grain. The knits are in perfect condition. The leather is veg-tanned steerhide. This hide is very soft and isn't thick, bit like lambskin I'd say. Don't know how it will age.
And I really the repro...
Hi all,
I am looking for a B6 jacket for this winter, my budget is 200-400 GBP, so the Aero, Eastman is not the option for me. The jacket does not to be accurate, but has to be in reasonable good quality and warm. Also, I am size 34-36, so most second hand jacket on ebay does not fits me...
Just found this jacket, I love the red sheepskin design, but how about the quality of their jacket? And how does this B6 Fits? Is it slim or boxy?
Do they able to do any customization? I really want to remove the waist zip and buckle, and I don't think the original B6 has this right?
and here...
Found this jacket on ebay, it is nicely build. Made in USA. However, it is fits like a mid to large...cant wear it, I think I will just treat it as a collect...
The jacket arrived this morning, I must say BK did a great job. The leather is great, the workmanship is very good and I love the hard wear.
The jacket is size 36, and I asked BK to shorter and narrow the sleeve, and make the jacket one inch longer, and add a button cuff on this jacket.
There are many repro A2 comes with dark seal leather and reddish knits. But, I am wondering is this a true design in history? I cant remember any original A2 comes with such design. If this is a true design in history, is this a particular contract or it is a general design?
After tried a LW A2, I finally release buy from abroad is not a good idea, so lets back to local brand.
I am considering between Aero 1930HB and their unknow maker A2, since I am very slim, I know I will buy both eventually, (what a tragic), so, the question is which one comes first? HB or...
I am selling the Lost Worlds A2 jacket, because this is big for me, the ebay link:

Received my LW A2 this morning, because this is a sale jacket, so I cant do any customisation, and the result is, the sleeve are too long...I am thinking of keep it or sale it now, any idea?
I just went to their website, and I found that the price is in £ now, but the figure remains same... eg, westfall £700, used to be 700 euro, and the hourse A2 is £400 now, used to be 400 euro... and All the original contract A2 are £740 now...can any one in Euro/US checks the price please?
Hi, Guys, its me again...
I am in difficult to choose between Aero leather' Bronco W535AC29191 Type A-2 and BK's house A2.
I've been told that hte BK's house A2 is an accurate repro, and the shape is very good.
Someone says Aero's repro is not as accurate as BK, even compare to the house...
Hi Guys, any of you own a steerhide Bill Kelso's house A2? I am very interested in this jacket now, but the steerhide is a bit bothers me, so I want to know the quality of their steerhide, and is it worth to buy it? Or I should wait until the horsehide version. Thank you.
