I didn't know that. Thank you, it's always good to learn something new every day. You don't hear the Kelvin scale mentioned much in daily life, unless, perhaps, you work in the sciences.
I envy you good fellows being able to dress up for the holidays. I will wear a tie and dress shirt with dress slacks and braces to Church, and probably a panama hat for the ride there and back; it's too hot for a jacket here. The rest of the holidays will be Hawaiian shirt with said panama hat...
Spot on Danny. I have a list of Aeros I'd like to get and even if I'd managed to do so already, then Thedi comes along and blows my mind (and my wallet) with their designs and hides. You're never really done in this game.
I think it's a good product for someone starting out with leather jackets. For those of us more initiated into quality outerwear, a few design tweaks would be preferred but at that price point, not bad overall. It'll never make us forget about Thedi, Aero, Langlitz et al but we're not the sort...
Laugh as you may but my formative ideas about vintage or vintage-style leather jackets that still determine how I view fit today came from two flicks: Pearl Harbour for the A-2 and Tobey Maguire in Seabiscuit, where I first fell head over heels for the halfbelt jacket.
I hate to confess this...
To quote many a bluesman and the great Gene Vincent, "You never miss your water 'til your well runs dry." I'd hate to see you sell it and then regret it later.
Got a big smile out of your writing newest bestest buddy! But I agree with other guys. It's a great-looking jacket and doesn't look too bad from the back but it looks too short in the front and side photos. Set it free.
