Aero Half Belt HH (44L) for sale on VLJF

[Dr H]

There's an Aero Half-Belt for sale on VLJF for those that are interested.

Ken made it for the owner about 9 years ago. It's a special horse hide that's a little less thick than heavy front quarter but thicker than the one on the A2. Still a heavy jacket.

It's on the "Thunderbay" label since the hide wasn't the standard half belt hide.

Two hand warmer pockets, lined in cotton drill. Storm cuffs, Brass Talon Zipper. Jacket has wear and is broken in but still could use some more breaking in. It's a very tough hide.

Measures:
Across shoulders: 20 1/2"
Shoulder to end of cuff: 26"
Chest (armpit to armpit): 25 1/2"
Top of collar to end of jacket: 27 3/4"

Asking $800.00 + shipping.

This is not my jacket.

He's also offering it at same price on VLJF down the thread, my mistake.

At five hundo, it's a very fair price if you're asking me

I thought so too, if Aero is your thing it looked sound (and too old for there to be a concern over the nature of the hide).

Thanks guys for the tip: I just returned from the seller who lives in the Los Angeles area with the wabi-sabi 44Long Aero.
