Lack of taste is disturbing
Threw a bid a week ago, got notification today that I've won. Only bidder. What's going on in this world, nobody buying leather jeans anymore??? Lack of taste is disturbing.

Yeah... there are even people buying peacoats that look like rugs![]()
In all seriousness, that coat would work well with leather pants.
Wow!
Himel Avro I ordered is done, just waiting for shipping confirmation. Can't wait!

Funny that I was wondering how it would look with pants![]()

How many leather jeans does a man need? Where does it end, Monitor, where does it end?!???!
You’ve made me curious to try leather jeans.
Haha, I don't have that many! I have Aero, Bates and one with laces. And now another Aero. As for where it ends, unlike it is the case with jackets, that I know perfectly well. It ends with these...

I only need five thousand Euros.
Well, only four slightly different versions of the exact same garment? Perfectly reasonable.
How are the Aero’s btw? Do you find that they fit true to size?
John Lofgren Monkey Boots Shinki Horsebuttt - $1,136 The classic monkey boot silhouette in an incredibly rich Shinki russet horse leather.
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - $395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks.
Schott 568 Vandals Jacket - $1,250 The classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, in a very special limited-edition Schott double rider style. You’ve made me curious to try leather jeans.
These pants I posted are made from one entire panel of 11+oz horsehide. The panel hasn't been cut into smaller pieces, there's no usual pattern cutting but instead, the whole thing has been shaped into a pair of pants with holes sewn together. It's really incredible! I mean, this is like the only example I've seen where paying more money actually does get you something that isn't entirely subjective.
Nothing like this exists on the market and it's impossible to copy.
Why am I telling you all this? So that you can skip the entire trial and error business and just get these and have the best leather pants ever made in the entire universe & be done with it in one move.
As for Aero's, didn't you read my review? XD That's essential reading & high quality thread.
They're absolutely fantastic, as I stated, seem more professionally made than their bike jackets.
They fit like a second skin and are super comfortable, despite being heavy (4.5 kg, more than any jacket I had). And yeah, 100% true to size, at least in my case.
While with leather jackets we can discuss many alternatives, when it comes to pants, I can pretty much tell you not to look further than Aero.
