    Advice needed - Ordering my first Aero jacket

    I would order a Bronco first as you would likely get more wear out of it than a Highwayman and then order a Highwayman when you soon realise you cant live without another jacket.The Bronco is probably better for the coming warmer months and a Highwayman for cooler weather.Personally,I would...

    For summer-suede shoes: moccasins or usual Derbys?

    Did a thread get deleted?

    I posted a link to Fox Creek Leathers as I don't think it had been mentioned on that thread but when I looked again the thread had vanished......strange.
