    So whose boots are cooler, mine or my wife's?

    The Ravens are made by Viberg boot. Check under the motorcycle boot tab. Viberg's are top-notch but you may have to wait around for a custom pair. Make time of up to 16 weeks or more these days...

    Viberg Boots

    I have a pair of Vibergs and they are top notch boots. I would like a new pair of Hikers and/or Engineers, but Viberg's pricing on anything other than stock boots is too high IMO. Viberg is doing exceptionally well at the moment so they are in a position to charge a premium. Last time I...

    For Sale: Schott Leather Jacket, Mens, Size 48

    OK, cool. It's pretty big on me, but I'm a 46 so a 48 should be a bit big. It's a boxy cut like a Aero Highwayman.

    Stockman - Straight Out of the Box

    By the way wdw, I'm glad I didn't order your jacket because it's more ridiculous that mine. Outstanding choice.

    Stockman - Straight Out of the Box

    Ridiculous how nice Aero jackets look. When I received my Aero Route 66, I just laid it out on the bed and stared at it for about and hour or so, taking in the aroma...walked away only to come back and stare at it again for a while. Pathetic, I am.

    For Sale: Harley-Davidson Leather A2-Inspired Motorcycle Jacket, Mens, Size 46

    Folks, I have decided to try to find a good home for my very first leather jacket. It's been through thick and thin with me, but we must now part ways... the Lounge is partly to blame :) Within the last year, I have purchased an Aero Route 66 in brown FQHH and a Langlitz Columbia. Please...

    For Sale: Schott Leather Jacket, Mens, Size 48

    Folks, I have a couple too many jackets so I need to make some room. For sale, I have a nearly unused old stock Schott casual jacket listed on eBay. This jacket is similar to a Aero Highwayman in style. The leather is really quite interesting and nice. It's difficult to get a picture of the...

    Schott Motorcycle Jacket, Heavy Steerhide, Mens, Size 46

    Folks, I'm trying to make some room for a couple new jackets in my closet. I would like to make way for my new Langlitz Columbia so this Schott jacket must go. Check out the eBay link below. http://www.ebay.com/itm/221136042578?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649 Thanks...

    So whose boots are cooler, mine or my wife's?

    You have no idea...not only are my feet like a duck in the front, I have the itty bitty ankles to go along with them. I really have the duck thing going on. Try telling White's, Wesco, and Viberg to build out the toe box and take in the ankles. White's didn't believe me when I ordered my...

    So whose boots are cooler, mine or my wife's?

    The 8 oz Hunters were a bear to break-in. Now I feel like Godzilla when I'm wearing them...my wife hates them.

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    Jimmer, I used to wear only Red Wings until such a time when my feet started widening in the front. Now, not a single style of RedWings fit my feet. This is the only reason I went in search of a custom fit boot and came across the likes of White's Wesco, and Viberg. In reality, I still...

    So whose boots are cooler, mine or my wife's?

    Here's a pic of my Viberg Hunters. I requested 8 oz. leather, very heavy. Not sure I would do that again. Forgot to mention...these Hunter's are lasted to their not so talked about Square-toe Hiker last. [/IMG] I also ordered a stock pair of Ravens. My wife loved these boots on me, but they...

    So whose boots are cooler, mine or my wife's?

    Jimmer, Viberg's prices get really crazy, quick, once you start changing things. Viberg has a very hot market in Asia (Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, etc.) and their mark up in high, and we Americans are going to have to pay the same high mark up on their made-to-order boots. For example when I...

    So whose boots are cooler, mine or my wife's?

    Coffee, This is the first pair of pull up boots I have owned since I was a teenager. I went with the Nomad over the Boss because I prefer the way my Semi-Dress boots fit versus my Jobmasters. I'm not crazy about the heel insert in Wesco's, and I really like the high arch and hand lasting of...

    So whose boots are cooler, mine or my wife's?

    Ok Folks, I just received my White's Nomads and I'm a happy camper. However, my wife insist her White's Thoroughbred Packers are the bomb. Who has the cooler Motorcycle boot, me or the wife? Let's hear it. [/IMG]

    Yep, zipped up = double layer for warmth unzipped and buttoned down = venting for cooling

    Johnson Leathers custom jacket, new photos

    ForestForTheTrees, I'm really digging that jacket. Very much like my Aero Route 66. I really wanted a jacket made from Brown FQHH. I didn't think to ask if Johnson could accommodate. You live and you learn...

    FYI: Eastman and Aero including undisclosed upcharge on overseas sales

    Yep Butte, the process at the airport is a bit painful...likely on purpose as you say. As cloudylemonade has explained, it's a business decision and Aero seems to be willing to be transparent about this issue by way of a detailed reply. Since the "cat is out of the bag" and in the spirit...

    FYI: Eastman and Aero including undisclosed upcharge on overseas sales

    Hmm, if you are a foreign customer and don't approve of the list price (which includes an non-refunded VAT) of Eastman and Aero products, you could just choose not to purchase their products and take your business elsewhere. If enough foreign customers make this choice, then Eastman and Aero may...
