    Help out an Aero newbie

    Hate to be a bore but you could find a middle ground with their Bootlegger-It has aviator and motorcycle heritage-You have to go with what you love though

    Word to the Wise- Aero Pocket Modifications

    These pictures might give you some idea of the carrying capacity of a Shackleton's outer pockets.Not suggesting it's ideal smokers wear but Senior Service ought to fit.

    Aero Northeaster Review

    Aero made me a pair of belt loops for my Hudson.I find the belts stow quite neatly as in the picture.

    "The Grizzly"

    Hi The mouton is dark brown and I have an alpaca body lining.The sleeves are cotton lined.There is sufficient internal space for a thin wool sleeveless waistcoat so it keeps me warm down to about freezing if I keep moving-hard to be objective.

    "The Grizzly"

    Sources for MC Jacket Belts and Fur Collars

    I think Lost Worlds sell belts separately and maybe would make a collar if approached.I have found belts suitable for LAPD jackets on Etsy and by searching for duty belts on Ebay(Worldwide).

    Hats (for a change)

    The cap in the first photograph would be my choice but I prefer a flat brim that is fitted with a snap button.8 panel with sufficient material to shape it at a slant.A good one is certainly warm,showerproof and suits the half-belt theme.I would go to a well known California hatter for style and...

    Daily Decisions

    Showing off is a serious business but I think I base every expedition around the jacket first and foremost and the rest of the ensemble especially with regards to colour co-ordination.The TFL effect means that just going to the local store for frozen goods etc has become an expedition!

    30's Half Belt vs. Premier Highwayman

    Personally I think the Highwayman suits you better but the classic solution is to keep both.The colour of the jackets looks similar but that is probably my monitor.I've never considered a Highwayman but that is a beauty.
