I like the look quite a bit (I mean it really looks great!), but IMO the price is too close to the all leather version.

Hello Carrie,
I hate to ask, but, can you get the style jacket (August - 30's HB - etc.) you want and make your own combo, or is it only available in the Bootlegger?

^^^ Yes, this is my question also, can these tweeds be applied to any jacket pattern? Also, could the whole jacket be done in the tweed, as opposed to a combination? I'm really digging the Poacher Shetland Tweed. Thanks, Carrie! This is exciting!

Thank you Carrie,
I will send you my list when I get the chance, and I'll bet you can guess by now what HB style I prefer!!

For those that are considering a Wool and Tweed Aero, look at the Cotton Sateen Liners...these liners keep the jacket light while not clashing with the external Tweed pattern. Aero's Cotton Sateen liners come in Wine, Olive, Emerald Green, and Black.

The description was sounding great, until I got to the line:
"with added body length and sleeve length".
Why oh why?????

I wouldn't expect a significant price difference - bear in mind that aside from the limited difference in price in materials, one of these will take exactly the same time, skill and effort of the leather equivalent to make.
Isn't it a fairly standard thingfor the Thurston stock orders to be a touch longer?
