LOL. Most of my jacket wearing happens around the house and in the yard. Hardly ever get out anymore, but when I do, it's done proper LOL.Wow! that jacket is stunning and it fits you perfect! Shame on you for wearing it with sweatpants though! i think you've crossed a line.
lol, I like the rebel spirit though. Cross-zip jackets aren't for people that follow the rules - wear it proud with shorts and crocs for all I care.LOL. Most of my jacket wearing happens around the house and in the yard. Hardly ever get out anymore, but when I do, it's done proper LOL.
Just trying to get some cheat wears in the early morning before the heat kicks in. Should be really nice and broken in by fall.
Like undyed/suntanned? Amazing warm colour.
I am not sure I have to ask. I just know it is full veg and not painted or coated, hoping this is the one to transform the most.Like undyed/suntanned? Amazing warm colour.
Is this the Ralphs-Pugh pattern? He’s getting really good!
I have to disagree on this. I never thought I would say this when it comes to leather jacket and sweatpants, but @TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead managed to pull it off!Wow! that jacket is stunning and it fits you perfect! Shame on you for wearing it with sweatpants though! i think you've crossed a line.

I’ve got the forehead, just need the costume.From my lovely GF: "This looks like something a DC vilain would wear in the forest"
Not exactly RP repro. I wanted a Hercules style back because I don't have one yet. And he added extra topstitch in the front. I should get the jacket soon.Is this the Ralphs-Pugh pattern? He’s getting really good!
Yes. Chloe is their communication person from the factory. They upgraded their system too. So you get an email with something like this attached instead of just words:Question for those whom have placed recent orders with Aero directly. Do they still send a spec sheet to review before production? In the past I have always submitted my specs, Aero reviews them and creates their own sort of punch list they send to me to review, we agree and it goes into production.
With my latest, I submitted my spec sheet, paid my deposit, but have yet to see Aero’s punch list. I suppose I am to assume they caught all the tweaks (a small number in this case but significant nonetheless). Just curious if this is simply how they operate now. I’ve been more than a bit frustrated by this process and it for damn sure ain’t my first rodeo.
Honestly, I thought I would have the jacket by now. I started the discussion in early April, was told 2-3 weeks delivered "once finalized" and have yet to see this sheet^. I have paid my deposit, emailed multiple times to ask if I can simply SEE THE AERO SPEC SHEET. And now multiple weeks have passed again. So I have no idea what I'm getting. I did make changes, wool sleeves with leather HWM style cuff, wool collar w/ leather underside, lining change and some slight measurement tweaks (important ones). Maybe they have it all recorded off my spec sheet and it's no big deal....but maybe not. I'll be honest, as much as I do want the jacket, it's leaving a really bad taste. I am not a new customer with a bunch of dumb *** questions. I know how to do my part, make the sheet and pay. I just want the acknowledgement that all the tweaks have been reviewed and approved BEFORE they start building it!Not exactly RP repro. I wanted a Hercules style back because I don't have one yet.
