    New Aero 1930's HB Cordovan FQHH and Alpaca

    Beautiful!! Once this goes live then please provide info on how to request this lining when ordering my Aero LHB. I had sent images to Holly showing the lining of my 1950's half belt with a brick colored quilted lining not unlike this but the color was more uniform overall. Not sure how the...

    New Aero 1930's HB Cordovan FQHH and Alpaca

    Wonderful news! If this is for real then I will definitely order my Aero LHB with this lining. Hopefully it will be available for more than just a limited time as I think more than a few folks will find this type of lining a nice change of pace from the usual wool or cotton ones. Of course...

    New Aero 1930's HB Cordovan FQHH and Alpaca

    I sent an inquiry to Aero 2 weeks ago about the availability of the quilted satin lining and Holly replied back that it's no longer available. I had forwarded some images of my 1950's half belt which also has the quilted lining in a brick color for reference but no luck. I posted some pics of...

    New Aero 1930's HB Cordovan FQHH and Alpaca

    I actually had a LHB way back in 2001 - special ordered with a (no longer available) quilted satin lining. It was a wonderful coat but the horsehide was super stiff and the hide would leave black marks on whatever I wore or rubbed against. Alas, I sold that jacket and have regretted it which...

    New Aero 1930's HB Cordovan FQHH and Alpaca

    So glad you posted pics of your new HB in Cordovan - good fit - since the jacket is new born it is sure to look better with wear. I am hankering for a Long Half Belt in Cordovan CXL steerhide and seeing a similar HB (even in FQHH) gives me an idea of how the color would look. It appears...

    As requested I'm posting some inside images of the Aero Style Review Catalog - I've included the price list which is a real flashback in time and price!! Price list is full view - others are click to view.

    Aero Style Review - Vintage (?) Catalog

    Sorry, I don't have a scanner. To capture each page I'd have to use my camera then download/edit then upload all the images. I could provide some select pages and even the price list if that would do. The price list alone would be interesting to those that have obtained Aero jackets recently...

    Aero Style Review - Vintage (?) Catalog

    I was wondering if any other FL folks ever received a Aero Style Review catalog that was first issued back in 1999-2000. I received a copy of the first issue and rediscovered it today. It is essentially a mail order magazine (as noted in the body of the insert) that contains 24 pages of...

    Best tartan liner for Aero brown FQHH..?

    Wow!! That would be GREAT if Aero does decide to offer a quilted satin lining again. Maybe the posting of my jacket might have stirred interest in a quilted lining as many vintage horsehide coats had quilted linings similar to my coat. Maybe over time they fell out of favor or to cut costs...

    Best tartan liner for Aero brown FQHH..?

    I sent an inquiry to Aero and Holly replied that the quilted satin lining that was an option when my jackets where ordered back in 2000-2001 is no longer available. I guess it wasn't very popular although I do really like my 1950's half belt with it's distinctive and somewhat rare quilted...

    Best tartan liner for Aero brown FQHH..?

    It is a rare option that I had requested on the jackets shown in the images I posted. Back then Aero had a Longshoreman jacket with a shearling lining that had the lower portion of the lining in a blue/green quilted lining that caught my eye. I inquired about having something similar on the...

    Best tartan liner for Aero brown FQHH..?

    Greetings: Newbie here. I know this thread is regarding tartan linings but since it refers to 'linings' I wondered why I have yet to see an Aero jacket with the Sateen (satin?) quilted lining posted on this forum. I discovered Aero back in early 2000 - I was smitten and ordered my first...

    Post Your Worn-In Jackets, Let's See That Grain and Patina!

    New to the Lounge - this thread is a good start to introduce some of my jackets. Based on the topic, I selected a small assortment for visual review. Not the best images but the subjects need no introduction. The 'sleeves' images consist of some ebay finds (Nates, Kale, Advanced Uniform) and...
