Utterly ASTOUNDING!! End Game jacket here!

My first post here in four years of reading the forum, lol.
Nice to see everyone, especially the main regulars.

This is my favorite aero premier 1930s highwayman in midnight blue horsehide. Stunning leather! This jacket is already five years old. It has been my main one in autumn and winter for three years. The fit is certainly not perfect, but only MrProper can boast of perfection here, huh.

I also have schott 618 in black hh and schott p653 in burgundy hh. I like to wear jackets so that over time there is a good visible effect of wear.

Over the years of reading the forum and my experience, I realized that I love super heavy leathers, so someday I want to get a lost world jacket, I think these should be the best jackets in the world.

Have a nice day everyone!

Now that's what I call a worn jacket. That's how it should be. Very cool.
Midnight Blue would also be something I could well imagine. I'd probably already have it if it was available in CXSH.

Welcome. Great looking Aero. Mine is worn too but I’ve got some work to catch up to yours. If you like the Aero I agree you will enjoy LW.

And the ZT 0350 ain’t shabby. I’m a Spyderco man myself (love all the different exotic steels) but own some Zero Tolerance (and too many other brands). Knives and jackets make me happy.

Nice jacket, good outfit.

As to LostWorlds, one word re managing your expectations. The jackets by and large are far less heavy than Stu tries to make you believe, especially compared to the heavier examples of Aero‘s CXL HH.

LW jackets are great in their own right, and the hides are perhaps my all time favourites, so you won’t go wrong.
I came to LW after owning several really heavy Aero and SB jackets and was surprised how lightweight my LW Ryder felt in comparison. And I did request a “heavy hide” in my order.
These days “lightweight” has become “versatile”, of course…

Definitely a Happy Birthday to the Marines. I made a pit stop at Pendleton a couple weeks back. Still pointy.

I have a question about the color of the lost worlds horsehide. If I want to get a strong patina and fade. Are there any options? Or will the black remain black, like schott, for example.

In fact, as I understand it, there are very few combinations where the leather is both heavy and capable of fading and patina. Horsehide or steer, doesnt matter.

Well, your Aero is a textbook example of patina, I would say…

I am afraid, LW horse will stay superblack no matter what. It will crease and grain (at least the hides post 2015 or so), but it will stay black. Vanson Comp Weight would be another example of a pretty chunky hide that doesn’t fade to brown etc.

Aero CXL HH fades to brown (as you know), and I have two jackets that are dyed and then lightly painted over to create an artificial “teacore” effect. One is an RMC painted brown with a red core, and the other my new BlackBear/Y2 (navy over bright blue). I like the effect but as a daily driver I prefer a more natural aging.

Lovely.

May I ask you, from the upmost respect because you’re my #1 FL poster as you’re so knowledgeable, nice and have a great collection (other posters have 2 of those traits but not all 3, I have none lol), why the chest pocket?

I have an (admittedly irrational) hatred for chest pockets in center zip jackets and I don’t understand them from an aesthetic and/or practical point of view, so to me, they’re an eye sore.
