    New Aero Maxwell

    Excellent jacket and very good fit, not only in the measures but also in the overall "look". This is your jacket, period.;) How do the buttons work (not technically :D, I did use buttons before...) but given that the button-holes are in the very stiff HH? Is it very difficult to close them?

    Now the waiting-time begins.;) I guess I open a dedicated "Teamster"-thread once it arrives here (should be around Jan to Feb 2015).

    What hats with B-3 jacket?

    Stetsons come in large sizes as well, I got a 62 - 63 cm measurement ;)

    shrinking aero anyone?

    Sorry, but for me this makes no sense at all. If it is one crease or two that make a whopping 0.75" shrink, this does not explain the evenly distributed shrinkage seen at the seems, now does it? I think it is much more likely the leather shrank evenly overall. If this is seen as normal, ok, fair...

    Show me your favorite jacket

    Of course, ordering a jacket for 700 € - 800 € is nothing I do just so. I like it to weight the options, think about what do do, and more than anything else I simply don't order and I'm happy with it. Having a champagne-taste on beer-budget has at least one clear advantage to the opposite: You...

    Hi PL, thanks for the input. Unfortunately there is just one thing I'm not too hot about with the LHB, and that are the flap-pockets. So both VdR and Lavant are out. ;) I'm pretty sure I'll order the Teamster, the only uncertainty is buttons or zip (if that's possible at all). I'll pull the...

    Aeroleather ;) Point is, I recently started the LHB-season, wearing FQHH again. The Long-Halfbelt is well broken in now after 2.5 years and I realized how much I like the hide and the cut of the longer Aeroleather jackets. So my switch back to products from Galashiels.

    Alexander Leathers Roadster Planning

    Update: The Roadster is more or less gone from the list - nice jacket, though! - and I realized I want a Teamster in brown FQHH. No mods, only the two pockets inside, maybe a brown cotton drill, thats it. Beautiful jacket! ;)

    New Aero Pre-War Irvin

    It's a nice jacket and will keep you warm for sure, any weather to come... When I see the back-shots of these jachets, same with Sloan's, I always think of Mutant Ninja Turtles, don't know why...?

    Women's Leather Jackets

    I also think a shorter Halfbelt might in fact look better on a woman than on a man. My lady wants a jacket, too, now, I successfully infected her with the jacket-bug.:cool:

    Alexander Leathers Roadster Planning

    Well, you lost me a bit on the Ventura... ;) Anyway, thanks to all who contributed to the case. As I really want a light jacket "grab-to-go" the goat might be the best. Originally I wanted the steer, but the goat seems much more useable. Now the weather is where leather-jacket can be worn...

    Amanda was so kind to send me a sample of the black goat as well. I agree, this is really nice stuff and I'm seriously considering getting the jacket in black goat. Thank you all for the input so far.

    FINALLY!!!!! A Pair of Boots that Fit "Right" out of the box!!!!

    Beautiful shoes. I tried the 1000 Miles once in a shop in Eindhoven and found them quite comfortable. Unfortunately the asking-price in Europe is 400 Euros, call that 500 $. Buggers. :)

    Aero Leather Highwayman - edition for winter

    Beautiful jacket. I really never understood all the adoo about "storse", in my eyes this was pure hyperbole from the beginning. I know, however, that this is a minority-view here on the board. ;)

    @schitzo & ProteinNerd & theundeadkennedy: Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not really into black jackets, so it will most likely be in a brown color. Of course, if someone has pics to show from black goat, please show it. I find the jacket depicted on the AL-webpage particular amazing, that is...
