here's my Aero Bootlegger Premier fit in Russet Goatskin that Insurrection helped me come to own. Made by Moira. I really dig the leather, look, and fit. The only thing that would have made me happier is if it were half the price so I could have gotten two.

Good looking jacket and great trim fit. Any chance of a real close up of the hide, as it looks interesting? Ideally next to another colour hide for a better comparison.

here's a close up of the hide next to Alden #8 shell, Edward Green Edwardian Antique, and Tricker's Acorn.

Great jacket and great fit. I even like your footwear, especially the Alden Color 8 blucher. I also have Aeros in both black and seal goatskins. I used to have a russet goatskin Aero Bronco A-2 but sold the last one as it was two sizes too big. Congratulations! :thumb:

Very cool looking jacket and a good overall fit. The Premier pattern can be a very snug fit though, when zipped up, you'll have to go easy on the Christmas cake :)

Thanks for the close up. It looks quite dark for russet. More like my chestnut Irvin, but I prefer that darker co!our. You obviously have good taste in footwear too.

I've never been a fan of this pattern but now I get it. Looks great. I suspect it is one of those jackets that doesn't suit everyone. You wear it well. Once it's broken in it'll look even better.

i looked through every pattern of Aero's before i ordered this. and while it was being made i second-guessed myself daily. but once i put it on and wore it out i knew i made the right choice for me. it's traditional, but leans fashion forward. i definitely do not think this pattern is for everybody, which is exactly why it's perfect for me.

Good choice konadog. I tend to grab my zip sleeve Bootlegger when heading out the door. I've gotten more compliments on it than any of my other Aeros. The slimmer Premium looks good on you.

Yes indeed. Very nice looking leather. I have a BK and an Alexander with the great collar. I really like the fit on you.
