    Aero hanger question

    Apologies if this has been covered. I searched. I use these hangers for my jackets. Aero claims they are wrong and they cause deep creases. Has anyone experienced this?

    Wind Flap Removal

    Hey loungers! I figured I would bump this thread instead of starting 1 new. I HATE the flap on my Schott 689H and want to chop it. Does it look like it can be done easily based on how it's stiched on the inside.

    OP here Thanks all for the replies and info. I ordered russet Badalassi! Tell me about it! The boot obsession hasn't yielded unfortunately!

    My new 689H

    Congrats! I got the same jacket in September and the 1 thing I don't like about it is that inside flap by the zipper.

    Aero leather help

    You guys are great thanks for the replies and links! I know of Thurston through this forum. I may try them when I decide. I'm in Toronto. The border and international shipping rates might be a bit much for sample jackets. I have no good reason other than to say King Richard didn't cry out for a...

    Aero leather help

    Hello Fedora Lounge! I'm buying an Aero Bootlegger and would like your assistance with the leather selection. I follow a YouTuber who reviews boots (Dale's Leather works) this is all his fault! I came across 2 of his older videos of his Aero jackets. Natural CXL horsehide and Ridley russet...

    Does Schott do runs of CXL yearly? Can I order a different model in CXL?

    Horsehide leather jacket care/ maintenance

    As someone who's new to better leather jackets I appreciate this thread! I have a Schott and Himel and I sprayed them both with Bickmore before I wore them. That's all I'll do.

    @TartuWolf You're welcome! Yeah, I don't understand either why they can't at least reuse the shafts. I'm contemplating between Renegades in buck brown or more Vibergs.

    From Nicks. Hello, unfortunately the Renegades are not rebuildable due to the sewing pattern we use. Since they don't technically have "uppers and lowers" like our other models do, there isn't an upper to save and rebuild the lowers only. I do apologize for the inconvenience, please let us know...

    @TartuWolf that's right. Not rebuildable. I used the wrong word earlier. This is the boot I would get in buck brown or chestnut. https://nicksboots.com/the-renegade-1/

    Your jacket and boots are awesome! I want to say yes for French seams but I don't know 100%. The sleeves have 2 rows of stitches there. Brass hardware. I don't have any engineers but I'm thinking of buying a pair from Nicks. I love that Nicks is leather everything and have a pair of Falcons...

    Sorry for the long novel and thanks for reading! I wasn't going to post this thread about my experience with Himel Bros but it's been nothing but positive from start to finish I felt I should. A bit of background. I'm not or at least wasn't until recent a huge jacket aficionado like many of...

    Fit check on Aero Sheene please??

    That's a good looking jacket! I saw it when I window shopped the website and quickly dismissed it. Their pictures don't do it justice.

    Several beginner questions

    Perfect guys thanks for the info and crazy back story! I'm glad to read I can delete pockets that opens the door for a lot more options. I'll stick with the protective spray and don't expect lamb skin to be hard wearing. I rub all my new leather boots once with Venetian and thought about doing...

    Several beginner questions

    Hello everyone first post! I've got several questions and thought to group them all in 1 thread. a) I have 1 lamb skin jacket that I bought last month from a Canadian company called Ocean West. I can't seem to find any info on this company are they any good?? The shop I got it from is in...
