    Maxwell in brown FQHH - Configuration questions

    Yes, you are right, in the end I have to speak to Aero. I just want to gather as much knowledge as possible before so I can describe precisely what I want. Teamster would be right concerning length, maybe just a tad shorter. But I dont like the button type and the horizontal seam at the...

    Maxwell in brown FQHH - Configuration questions

    Again guys, thanks for the advice. Especially Dr.Seuss for more details on the jacket. @HoosierDaddy: thanks for the pictures this is a good reference. I would definitely like my jacket to be longer than that (I very rarely wear jeans and my pants are wider in general). I would like the jacket...

    Maxwell in brown FQHH - Configuration questions

    While reading the whole (and I mean that literally) Thurston Bros. / Insurrection thread I developed a burning desire to own an Aero Maxwell in brown FQHH and thus needed to abandon my plans of buying a black Cafe Racer for the moment. But with each new page of that thread new questions about...

    My first Aero Cafe Racer – last hints before I order?

    Guys, what can I say... I made a grave mistake and read the full Insurrection / Thurston Bros. thread. Now I know I must have a Maxwell in brown.

    My first Aero Cafe Racer – last hints before I order?

    I read somewhere that the midweight leather does not have the same "luster" as the thick. What would be you suggestion concerning pockets? In the beginning I thought about one zipped breast and two zipped belly pockets. Now I am wondering if two breast pockets are better. What about an inner...

    My first Aero Cafe Racer – last hints before I order?

    @IXL: you are probably right, although I would always be afraid to fall off with it;-) Again on the lining: what option for satiny lining do they offer? In my mind "satin" refers to a very smooth fabric made from silk, so it is natural and should be breathable. Rayon on the other hand is an...

    My first Aero Cafe Racer – last hints before I order?

    Thanks again guys, really appreciate your advice on this. Efff - now I have even more questions than in the beginning;-)) What do you think about full cotton lining (also arms) and a cover of satin on top of it? Will it be too thick? I kind of like the idea of having a little extra padding, but...

    My first Aero Cafe Racer – last hints before I order?

    Thanks so far guys. @GregO: what do you suggest for body length, where should the jacket end? At the hip bones or just above the hip bones? Since this is not supposed to be a real riding jacket I suppose it should be a little longer than a typical MC jacket.
