    They say it is easy to start a business, but to grow it is difficult. Particularly managing growth spurs. I see some parallels with Field (comms). Keep at it Leilah, you'll figure it out.

    Repairing Aero 1986 Leather Tear ?

    Leave it if it soft. You don't want to soak it with conditioner.

    ^^ Nice belt, great price. This roller buckle is utter crap though, good move replacing it.

    Maybe @TartuWolf can chime in, I think he has the Hauler in similar size.

    Make him proud! I also feel a bit foolish for advising you to bin it without seeing the jacket or hearing its story.

    It will lighten back up eventually. May wind up a bit darker than before, but patina should still show up.

    Repairing Aero 1986 Leather Tear ?

    Cool. Got it fixed for a great price. Like Monitor said, a cheap way to get the smell down is to keep it in the sun for a few days. The leather seems dry and stiff, could use some Pecards to soften it.

    FS: SCHOTT 503VN HAND VINTAGED JACKET - SIZE S new

    Almost two years and four pages of bumps. There must be a message in there somewhere....Nice jacket though, maybe you'd have better luck on the 'bay - bigger audience.

    Repairing Aero 1986 Leather Tear ?

    To get rid of persistent stink ozone is best, but you must buy an ozone generator. Not terribly expensive, but between that and the cost of repair, the jacket may not be worth the time and expense.

    Repairing Aero 1986 Leather Tear ?

    This is a reminder to always ask the seller about odors. I am guilty of forgetting to ask when I see a jacket I like and get excited. Always ask; some smells are darn near impossible to get rid of. Leather gets very weak when soaked through, and seams can fail. Bin it.
