    What is this particular style of jacket called? I believe the one pictured is a Goodwear repro of a Monarch, and the style looks very 40s. Does this model have a proper name? I'm guessing many brands offered a version of it

    Gloverall 'Morris' duffle coat. Like wearing a big ol blanket

    Do any modern companies besides Aero make a wool or wool/leather 40s style half-belt?

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I'm a returning aero customer so believe me, I know. So worth it though

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Aero wayfarer again. Looking forward to see the jacket change as it breaks in. Also looking forward to it not being stiff as a board.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Back in my punk rocker days, my no-name biker jacket (lapels full of badges and band pins of course) would exclusively be worn over a hoodie once the season turned to Winter

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Got my Aero Wayfarer, looking forward to wearing it out of the house later (will remove tag so as to avoid a Minnie Pearl situation). Chloe at Aero was terrific, I fully trusted her guidance re: sizing and got exactly what i wanted.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Aero should be shipping out my brown CXLHH Wayfarer later this week, I'm excited but a bit anxious about the fit, as I haven't had one of their slimmer cut 30's or 40's jackets before

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    In my experience, the turnaround time from entering production to finished product at Aero is about two weeks but I would definitely anticipate the waiting period being longer than that this time

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    Just got an email saying my order went into production, hopefully you get one today as well

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Wearing my aero route 66 around the house in anticipation of the fall weather. Sadly it looks like Aero discontinued this model after the recent sale, as well as a few other models. It's a real shame, it's one of their best looking ones imo (obviously biased)

    Lost Worlds’ founder Stuart interviewed

    He certainly seems like a blowhard but you also have take into account him being a native NYer, "blowhard jerk" is the default setting for a good portion of them. My limited interaction with Stu was an email exchange with him a few years ago inquiring about a jacket, and he seemed polite enough...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    That's so cool, it reminds me of the Byrds. Hope you got a 12-string Ric too!

    Aero Customer Service

    Was it one of those Talons? I have one on the last Aero I ordered and I hate it. I'm just waiting for it to break

    Aero Customer Service

    For some context, they've just had a huge sale a few weeks ago and are probably underwater re: correspondence and orders piling up

    Aero linings

    I was actually split on the moleskin and the shetland tweed, but I went with the tweed after consulting Aero

    Aero linings

    I've had the wool before, as you said it's very scratchy. I have the corduroy lining in one my Aeros and it's quite warm and looks good too. For the Aero I ordered during the sale, I went with the Shetland tweed option, we'll see how that fares.
