Oh man, would love to but I really don’t think I could pull that off [emoji30]

I am in the same boat. I love these vests, but I am not sure I could pull off the look. I will probably need to stick with tweed...

They are tweed in the back . They are really very versatile vests, that you can be worn under your Aero jacket or by itself as outerwear. I debated over going with Dark Seal Horse or Steer, but ended up with Steer as the grain is really present and it’s a bit more flexible (especially for a vest).

Let me know if anyone (PM me) is interested in it.
Thanks

I think it's probably similar to the anxiety you feel any time you try out something new, be it a hat, bracelet, vest, etc. Once you get used to it you wonder why you worried. I thought the same thing when I saw the Shakletons (nice but not for me), and then my brother got one. I tried it on with a chunky dark green sweater and it looked fantastic. If I only lived in a climate suitable for one, I have one in a minute. And that black Barnstormer on the Aero Sales page.

This very well may be the case. I would love to be able to try one out like you were able to. To your point, there have been things I was on the fence about and once I tried them on, I really liked them.

I don’t really get Aero designs generally, but I’d go for this one in a 42. Good luck with the sale.

But ‘futbol’ seriously?!

Bttt. Still for sale. Thanks

 

[RMF308]
