Quick and low-quality shots. Will have better ones soon.

Better lighting in the bathroom. Aero Plainsman aged natural steerhide. It’s a thick, heavy, bombproof jacket and my intention for this one is to wear it layered—so slightly roomy.

I've always wanted a jacket in natural hide... but there are so many other leathers too... and so little money...

Thanks everybody for the kind words and the warm reception!

The jacket is indeed the twin to Ton’s weed-cop jacket. Only difference seems to be the zipper-placement.
Initially I wanted a custom HWM, but the latest batch of midnight-blue CXL is already out. Imagine my joy when I spotted this beauty in the Sales...

This today.

I really wanted to try the natural HH, Aero used for their Epaulet-collaboration, so I specced a Premier HWM. I asked for Board-Racer cuffs (...), but due to some misunderstanding or perhaps me not making myself clear was told that this was not possible for this style.

I got the jacket mid July and was really happy. Only days later, Ton posted his masterpiece, Board-Racer zips and all. This was how I ended up ordering the twin.

The photo isn’t terribly good, but the colour comes across pretty accurate. Three weeks of wearing it hard (and not babying it, which would be useless as the hide is a stain-magnet) have done miracles to the optics.

Here you go: The bottom one is virtually straight out of the box (with a bit of early sunburn on the right shoulder after lying near the window for half a day or so).

The other one is after two weeks or so. I am more happy than I look, but I will work on telling my face likewise...
