Temps in the low 50's with rain showers, my new Aero 30s HB of course. I'm looking for things to do outdoors just so I can wear the jacket.

Nick, get some pins into that collar. The holes are already there, it will only do the jacket good.

Today, my Vanson Comet PLU-3 from Insurrection/Thurston Bros.

That desk is far too clean. You need several huge piles of paper on your desk, or people will think you're not busy! ha ha

I decided to go the crazy route of HWT and tumble dry (Monitoring it) with my Aero Leather A1 and I achieved what I was looking for (General shrinking ~2cm):

I needed less room on the shoulders, pit to pit and also les lenght on the sleeves . Thanks to the knit shrinking it feets better on the arm and waist and it's more comfortable to wear. The sleeve porn has increased too.

I'll think about treating the leather with something but I like the look, kind of suede look alike. The thing is that if you move your finger across the surface it changes the colour like suede. I remember I saw something similar in a picture of Aero but can't find it now.

I still haven't managed to know which leather is it but it looks like Horsehide (It's heavy and thick) that has lost all the shine, colour and smooth texture(Inside the pockets it's dark colour and smooth).

Unfortunately, we are having an early Spring here in Middle Tennessee. Temps today are about 70. Not much jacket wearing weather left. What there is won't be cold enough for a peacoat or my Thunderbay. The Sheene, Eastman and the Goodwear will get the exercise, as will the moto jackets.

Can't seem to stop wearing this bootlegger and with spring training the obligatory cubbie tee

^ Sleeves are developing some mighty fine wrinkles.

El Niño seems to have resulted in the mildest winter here in N Texas that I can remember, maybe ever. Usually one last blast of ice and/or snow last week in February or first week of march but not this year. Not even one hard freeze this winter in Dallas. Not complaining but will complain come August.

Super looking jacket - is that the Cordovan color and is it FQHH or CXL Steerhide. I ask because I recently ordered a LHB in Cordovan CXL steerhide and hope the color and hides are as nice. I've combed this forum for all the images of those with Cordovan to make sure that was the color I wanted. Of course by the time it arrives we'll be in the middle of Spring here in central VA.

Thanks for posting an image of your jacket!

@willyto - that came out great! Would love to know what hide it is...love the look and fit now. Well done.

Wings of Freedom tour at Stinson Field with a B-24J, wearing my HH ANJ-3 tribute jacket for B-24J Navigator/POW Lt. M.C. Miller, Jr. (755th BS, 458th BG, 8th AF). Eventually too hot for leather, but I wore it anyway!

Good Wear Imperial:

 

[tmitchell59]

Alexander Leathers. I helped a friend burn off a small pasture. I wear this jacket for outside work. Nice weight and easy to move in. The zip up front is a masterpiece of fit. I don't recall what they called this leather.

 

[Trenchfriend]

Nice!

Teamster, for the dog walk this morning.

 

[Fanch]

Dav yours and wdw's Teamsters were largely the reasons why I ordered mine.
