    Aero Sale Oct 22nd 2018

    I was expecting some m/c jackets in my size and maybe some discounted shearling jackets.

    Complete rip off of Lewis Leathers cyclone in Clutch cafe, London.

    we have to pay import duties and VAT on top. I personally would not pay anything more than for a new Lewis and it would have to be made to measure. Fortunately I live within walking distance of Lewis so I can go in and out casually and get measured up. I can also go to Aero but it's not that...

    Complete rip off of Lewis Leathers cyclone in Clutch cafe, London.

    I wasn't entirely clear; I think it's around £2,000 but could be more. I'm not sure if £2,000 is the full price or just the deposit. A deposit is taken and then the jacket is made. But I think the least you have to spend for one is £2,000. It's just not something I would spend on a jacket of any...

    Complete rip off of Lewis Leathers cyclone in Clutch cafe, London.

    The only people I can see buying an Addict copy of a Lewis jacket in London are people who are ignorant. Why would anybody buy a boxy generic cut which is no better in quality (in fact worse with the matte hardware) for double or triple the price of a made to measure version at Lewis Leathers in...

    "Perfecto style" jackets aren't all the same. The kind of cheap crap you see imported from china and sold in open air markets for £50 have not completely copied the pattern of a Schott Perfecto. Usually they have similar features: cigarette lighter pocket, epaulettes, belt etc and that's it...

    Aero Sale Oct 22nd 2018

    I suppose that's the reason these never sold and were just gathering dust. Aero listed the good stuff on their Sale page when it came up. This is just the dregs. Old man stuff.

    Disappointing. Not a single cross-zip m/c jacket or D1 or B6 in 40 or 42.

    Aero Sale Oct 22nd 2018

    I'm size 42 in Schott Perfecto 118. I won't have time to measure myself, I will probably just buy stuff to try on and then if no luck list it up on here and hopefully get my money back.

    Aero Sale Oct 22nd 2018

    Can someone tell me how the m/c jackets fit? I usually take a 42. Do Aero's jackets fit large or true to size? Is a size down going to give a nice trim cut or tight in the shoulders/chest?

    Not at all. I didn't feel that way. Horrible feeling leather and dull matte finish on the hardware. Also I'd rather get a jacket personally tailored to me than wear some baggy generic cut. not accurate. it's a facsimile and yes LL does make bands on the sleeves of the cyclone as a custom option.

    Complete rip off of Lewis Leathers cyclone in Clutch cafe, London.

    Couldn't believe what I found in Clutch cafe. Facsimile of Lewis Leathers cyclone jacket by "Addict" I believe. Cost £2,000 instead of the usual £800 or so for a genuine made to measure Lewis. Even has the arm bands which are a custom option at Lewis. The guy working at Clutch said he didn't...

    I don't like stretch marks on my partners and I don't like them on my jackets either. But whatever bloats your goat, activates your almonds.

    oh god, that wasn't what I meant! I obviously meant just a tshirt rather than multiple layers. But if you want nothing, you could always check out judas priest. better music for your trouble!

    Fit pic and questions - Lewis Leathers super monza tight fit

    Here is a non-tight fit version. As you can see, the elbow patches don't have those folds.
