Hi, I am selling my Aero Leather Half Belt deluxe. I ordered this jacket in November of 2023 through Thurston Bros. I am selling because it doesn’t fit me how I would like it to. Only worn out a handful of times and still needs broken in. I am currently selling on eBay but am open to selling...

I’ve been obsessing over the Schott 688 for a few years now. I love the relaxed fit, the cow feels amazing, and the dark brown color is just luscious. The sleeves are too short for me, I need about two inches added, but then I worry I’d need another inch in the body, or the jacket would look...

I bought this a few years ago from another member here but have only worn it a handful of times since. It was pretty tight-fitting when I got it but then I got serious about my health, dropped 30+ lbs, and now it's way too big. Hanging on to it just in case I gain back a bunch of weight seems...

Hey all! I’m new here as a member, but have used these forums for a long time and am grateful to be here. I just bought this sweet jacket from Thurston- it took months to get due to COVID closing the aero factory, but when I got it, everyone in my family told me it wasn’t my style so I decided...

Hi there, New member and first-time "poster" here but somewhat of a long-time lurker to TFL. I'd like to offer these here before posting up eBay to try and be a bit more of a productive member here as I'm not typically the type to post on internet forums. I have two items for sale, both...

Hi everyone, I am new to the Fedora Lounge but have been combing through threads for a couple of months now and have finally decided to surface. A little bit about me— I just graduated from college in New England and am now employed in Austin Texas as a geologist. I have a longstanding...

Hello All, this is Sree from North of Dallas, TX. Starting a new thread here. Been lurking around here in the forum for quite some time learning all about leather jackets, and enjoying the beautiful jacket photos from fellow members. I have much more to learn. Great forum to be in, wealth of...

Hello, I’m very pleased to announce the arrival of my custom Premier Highwayman, purchased with the invaluable help from Carrie & Wade @ Thurston Bros. I feel very fortunate to have discovered their amazing store and fit jacket process. It’s an expensive gamble ordering custom and the fit...
