    Show Your Patina

    We get a lot of jackets with tons of patina, but hard as cardboard from the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. The best stuff in the world, and I mean THE BEST, is Dr. Jackson's Hide Rejuvenator! www.insurrectionvintage.com

    Holly, You've given one of Aero's secrets away ...LOL... ;) ! Julie, for some time now, has done most of the prototypes for Insurrection and is the machinist who produces the highest percentage of our shop's Aero jackets. Her work is simply amazing, unparalleled even! Carrie is always...

    Communicating with Aero for USA Buyers

    Thanks Holly! Ken and I felt that with the limited hours that the Aero factory is available, due to the time difference between the United States and Europe as well as due to the production demands that are currently on the Aero factory, having a knowledgeable and accessible dealer with a...

    It looks to be a heavy steerhide, but I'll be in touch with Ken to find out the details... It's an old Aero tag...probably from close to the beginnings of the company...very, very nice jacket!!!

    The 1920s jacket didn't arrive today, but a bunch of jackets for our shop and lucky customers did!!! Here's a great cafe' racer, which utilizes the breast pocket structure of a 1960s Bates or early Schott cafe' racer... Very, very cool...!!! We liked the slanted pocket idea so much, we had...

    Insurrection Aero stock...

    Aero has agreed to replicate these jackets (sweet 1920s replica pieces from our vintage collection to ensure fit!) for us using Brown Horween FQHH. We've had such an amazing relationship with Aero and I'm very, very excited for this great 1920s jacket to come our way!!! Now that we've...

    Insurrection Aero stock...

    While it is true that most of our jackets won't work for people who are not height / weight proportionate, just as vintage jackets won't work for people who are not height / weight proportionate, there are definitely some great jackets that we carry that work for our larger customers. In terms...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Currently, we're just 9 through 12 (as you know, 12 is as big as John currently goes). However, we'd like to add 13s... One thing to remember is that a 12 is actually a 13 with the Lofgren and Co. boots...

    For those who ride motorcycles (or are thinking about riding).

    Horween horsehide and comp. weight Vanson are pretty bullet proof! The upper-end Schott stuff (above $600.00 USD) is too! If folks want it, and a lot do, we sell the Knox armored Coolmax Venture shirts to go under these beautiful jackets! You don't have to sacrifice style for safety...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Horsehide engineer boots...holy cow! John Lofgren and I have decided to bring these beautiful Horween chrome-tanned horsehide boots to the United States. Anything I could say wouldn't do the boots justice!!! www.insurrectionvintage.com

    Highwayman with detachable fur collar?

    This is one of the cleanest ways to do it, but you can also use a snap-on collar like we do with our J106s--

    Insurrection Aero stock...

    Glad I measured my waist and got you the better size J-66! The Perfecto looks incredible on you...it's very cool that Schott has resurrected this late 1930s pattern!!! I don't know what other patterns they have laying around in that factory, but I'm definitely going to be asking...!!!

    Highwayman with detachable fur collar?

    Will was an incredibly knowledgeable person and always helped us get the best for our customers! Ken is back at the helm and will be doing the same for us. Things will be a little different, but very, very good, as they always have been, with Aero! I didn't know this, but Ken is a former...

    Highwayman with detachable fur collar?

    As the only US Aero dealer, I had a good conversation with Ken on Thursday and I think that Aero is on an awesome track! Ken only wants people who are in the know dealing Aero, and, to me, that's definitely a good thing! For us here in the US, the future only holds good things for Aero dealers...

    I'm puzzled

    ...LOL... The seller is hoping someone is either crazy enough (or stupid enough) to buy a low-level piece of vintage denim for over $3000.00. Who knows, maybe he'll get it...??? We sell authentic Big E Levi's jackets (this isn't a Big E) for about $110.00 USD, but we only pick out ones with...
