Aero Type 3 Trucker in Battered Steerhide

Something you won't see everyday:

Aero Trucker in Battered Steerhide - some know this hide as "Shackleton Leather" because Aero first brought it to the marketplace in their Shackleton vest. Its a wonderful midweight hide, but far softer and more comfortable that any other Aero midweight hide (far softer and more comfortable than, say, Vicenza). It also has a mild pull-up effect, and gains character very quickly.

Amazing grain on this jacket -- just look at the pictures.

Olive sateen lining. "Gold" stitching -- although its more of a tan in person.

Pit to pit: 20.2"
Shoulder: 18.75"
Sleeve: 25.2 (around natural curve of sleeve)
Back length (from collar seam to hem): 25"
Hem width: 18.5"

Worn outside of the house exactly one time -- its just a touch short in the body for me, and has sat in the closet since that first wear. Purchased through Carrie/Thurston Brothers (as I've purchased all but one of my Aeros). Basically new. And certainly dope (if that's even a word anymore).

$795 plus PP fee (will take Venmo and F&F with no additional fee -- I've got references for TFL folks I've done business with if you'd like to check references). I'll take care of shipping in CONUS.

Good catch. Aero doesn't do hand warmer pockets on truckers anymore for some reason. I heard they had issues of some kind (no idea what it was about). When I was spec'ing the jacket, I asked for hand warmer pockets and was told no.

can't believe this hasn't sold. Oh man if it was a size 40. Once I get a job, I might have Carrie mock one up for me because this is perfection.

Yeah if I ever outgrow my current Aero Trucker and decide to go custom, this would probably be the way.
