    Trucker suggestions

    Hi - it was about a month between placing the order and them contacting me for the initial check - it varies from order to order tbh, so I would not worry yet if you just placed the order a week ago. Mine is currently in the finishing stage so I can report back on the full timeline when it arrives.

    Trucker suggestions

    I have the Lewis Western in their racing green vegtan sheep - its a great jacket and the perfect combo of hide and pattern in my view….that said, I have an Aero in their new chocolate goatskin roughout in production, so will be able to compare and contrast soon!

    Aero Premier 1930s Highwayman measurement advice

    I would try loosening the side straps - when pulled in tight on this model they tend to create a ballooning effect, unlike when they are positioned higher on the jacket as in halfbelts. The low sidestraps when pulled tight like this are likely accentuating the middle bulge - loosen them up a...

    Just placed an order for another Aero Shackleton - this time in their new chocolate brown roughout goat suede…with horn buttons rather than the leather footballs.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    I rather like these to go with more biker and cafe racer style jackets - esp with my more brightly coloured LL numbers - https://wunderteamshoes.com/collections/kicker

    Which one side-by-side comparison of two Leather Jackets

    I ranked these three blind and came to the same conclusion - the Regius is a clear winner, the Eastman this time is the weakest offering - in fact the collars alone would lead to this same ranking imo! Other details reinforce that - the Regius handwarmers and stitching around them are superb...

    Which one side-by-side comparison of two Leather Jackets

    Eastman for me - nothing is off and for example the chest pocket placement and proportions in particular gives it the edge…for the money the 5 star is great value though

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Yes - its is new (to me - do not know if the hide is new to Aero) - there is a small upcharge for this leather - £40 I think - it has a really nice patina and texture to it and is v soft to wear. I don't know if it a lighter/thinner fleece than their standard offerings - that is the case with...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    A couple of new additions - both custom orders from Aero - a Coastal Command Irvin in their pebbled merino shearling and a Shackleton with leather back in tobacco badalassi. Really delighted with these and already breaking in v nicely - the badalassi grain is emerging and the typical “wavy”...
