Aero Sonoma Cafe Racer Tumbled Brown FQHH

[pawineguy]

Antique brass hardware with ball and chain pulls, corduroy bottom lining. I may ride occasionally in this jacket, but it's mainly for winter casual wear, so a bit of room for layering a heavy sweater. The tumbled brown shows a lot of color variation, which is what I wanted. If you look at the back of the jacket, where a dark part of one panel meets the light part of another, I'm sure some would see it as a defect, and want a re-build. Luckily, that type of character is what I was looking for, so I'm pleased that it's that noticeable. What I'm hoping for is that when I break it in a bit, it will look more and more like patina, just accelerated.

I do like tht variation in the colour tones on this jacket. Should age very nicely indeed.

I never would have picked that lining when choosing jacket options, but it looks great. Looks like I need to reconsider my typically conservative choices. That really is a great combo.

I'm typically more conservative also, but I thought I'd give it a whirl on this jacket, since it's not really seen much. I like how it turned out.

Another great buy. Well done.

Two in one day? Ye gods! I don't think that's ever happened on the FL before. Congratulations on two beautiful jackets. By the way, ever ride up to the Water Gap? At this time of year I can't think of a nicer ride.

Thank you, and yes, a friend and I are going to head north up the river on either Sat or Sunday. The weather looks perfect and the roads up there will be full of bikes. In Eastern PA, this is THE time to ride, as you obviously know.

Superb.

Very nice jacket!

Fantastic and minimal duplication between this one and the Sheene. Congratulations with both. :thumb:

A brace of beautiful jackets! Enjoy!

Thank you, 27"

Did you measure the length or you ordered that length? My Cafe racer was 27" but when I measured it, it was 26.25" which look even better than 27" would have looked in my case, I suppose.
And what size and height you are?
