Aero Cafe Racer Arrives!

[olworthers]

Fit is absolutely spot on - more photos to follow....

PICTURES! Especially of the "dirt-rider collar" and the inside leather on the sleeve ends.

By the way, didn't go for the leather inside the sleeves. I requested this option but Amanda advised against it and also said that there is a charge for that option....

this is new, Aero did not charge for leather lining in sleeve cuffs before

Its standard in the 30´s halfbelt.

*holds breath for fitpics*

Griff the leather cuffs is actually standard in stuart, cossack and teamster jackets not the 30's halfbelt
I did a LOT of research on this recently

 

[GriffDeLaGriff]

Aha, i suspected it was standard in more jackets but wasn´t sure. Hovever my halfbelt came with leather cuffs and I´m pretty sure there wasnt any discussion about it.

It may be because it was in the medium oilpull, its thinner and there wasnt much left so maybe they let it slide due to the shortness of the leather and the fact that it was thin enough not to be of discomfort.

I have a 30's halfbelt on order and the leather-lined cuffs are standard.

Here is the response from Amanda when I requested leather-lined cuffs on my 30's HB:

we dont charge for inside leather cuffs, as this is standard on a button cuff.

Yep..I have several button cuff Aero jackets..and they are all leather lined.

That's a helluva jacket! Wear in good health.

Thanks! Time to heat up the credit card, dammit!!

Nice back. Really like that back style that Insurrection began doing with Aero years ago! Seems that most now either go with this back or a back with no gussets, either of which is probably a good move.

I second the "How is the fit?" motion.

Just curious. Do you work for Insurrection..?

Yes, can't help wondering...

It's a common question these days. I'd take any "recommendations" here with a bag of NaCl.

 

[IXL]

...dose of salt.....that's a good one!!!

Couple of shots of the fit as requested:

The angle is odd. But it looks like a perfect fit! Will you be riding?

 

[olworthers]

Yes - had to put the camera on a low table to take the shot!

I do ride, but with no bike at the moment, it'll be broken-in whilst on foot!!

Well, looks like a winner. Enough sleeve to ride as well as back - unless you want a really long back over the belt bent over. Enjoy.
