    Horsehide Leather Jacket with good zippers

    Just curious-The insert part looks to be all metal which must help with the zips longevity.The Hookless is all metal at that point but is riveted.

    Sharing info about Aero 1920s work coat?

    I notice that Aero have a used example described as a 30's Work Coat in size 42-I think they would provide you with any information that you need.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    I would love to see a close-up of the tweed-I have a heavyweight Harris Tweed jacket and the colours are glorious in the full sunlight.

    Hercules Leather co. Buco PJ-27

    I think it looks great and has to be good value at that price

    What not to do in a leather jacket..

    I think at the time I was more concerned with being a biker than a vegetarian so was used to being frowned on so to speak.Or maybe I was just bored....

    Best A-2 goatskin I've seen so far anywhere.

    I hope the heroes who survived 30+ missions got a new jacket.

    Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

    I like this a lot tho' the collar button looks a bit out of place

    Custom order of Aero Hudson in progress...

    My Hudson is a nominal size 50 with a back length of 33.25 which is how they designed it.It is a long length coat as advertised.

    Custom order of Aero Hudson in progress...

    I think you would be fine with heavy cotton for the sleeves but I don't think you would want to slim the sleeves down to much.The default sleeve lining is alpaca which I find OK with a thick cotton shirt but really does not allow for layering so if anything I would go for a slightly roomier...

    I got some quaint looks when I went into a vegetarian cafe

    In the process of getting first leather jacket

    Have you considered an Aero 59'er-I think this is nominally made in black or brown steerhide and has a lot of motorcycle style in its form-equally at home on a motorcycle or on the street

    Lewis Leathers Paradise Garage Jacket

    Hard to wear anything like this when it is so specific to one person.

    Help identifying brand?

    It has a Rivetts of Leytonstone/Lewis Leathers look about it which was probably copied by many manufacturers from the 1960's onwards http://haole.seesaa.net/article/136543774.html
