    eBay sucks

    I found that the more effort I put in like that, the more I got hosed. Luckily, I took pics of everything - box, label, receipt from USPS, etc. That made the effort more than it was worth, but it paid off when fighting Paypal. The limitations sellers can impose are lame, and that you can't...

    My new aero board racer

    I was almost going to suggest someone handed the lad the wrong jacket. I just don't believe he went in and came out with that??? Aero will make good, but yeah, I feel the disappointment from here!

    My new aero board racer

    Yeah, at 6'-4", my issue was that prior, I wore a 50+ and nobody would make me a jacket, sans Aero. now, I'm a 47 in number, and life is easier. My waist is normally a 38, so the drop was a problem as I'm not a fatty. But being large is a b*tch when it comes to clothing...

    James Dean Jacket

    Yeah, so say one would have to be a rube to bid on this is an incredible understatement.

    My new aero board racer

    Based on your pic (not an excuse for Aero at all) I'd wager getting a jacket to fit right will be challenging. I can say that as I have my own issues, and your build lends itself to being an intense search for perfection - esp in a leather jacket. That said, considering you went to Aero and got...

    Best warm leather jackets?

    My inspiration to start the weekend. All-around.

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

    Given my cats tendencies to lay upon my laptops, I better not leave that "James Dean" eBay auction open. At 250k starting bid, I'd have to sell some kids, cars, and lord knows what else ;)

    James Dean Jacket

    There's "hero" props and then others. Quite common to use other items in background shots as opposed to the closeups where the details are seen. Take "Red Tails" - I know Good Wear made plenty of Hero jackets and then there's "lesser" jackets in the background as nobody could tell and you're...

    Lost Worlds J23 4.5oz

    I'm not sure who is many enough, but I think I'm gonna have a hard time breaking mine before they bury me. Esp given the weather here in SoCal. But sadly I can't give to my kid as he's a few sizes smaller and the girls aren't showing much interest ;) Everyone else does lighter hides, so...

    Aero A2 Soft Italian Horsehide

    Don't think it looks at all too slim. I would not want any more hide on that one! Well done.

    Got blocked by Simmons Bilt Instagram because my comment

    I know it's not as legit as the stuff you BBQ studs are discussing, but when we do road-trips or just traveling in general, we always pickup bottles of local sauces. I have a good collection, and don't eat nearly enough meat to use them all, but it's that and coffee and beer that I get a kick...

    New Aero quartermaster seal jerky a2 return or keep it

    It if were mine, and I got it at that price, and it fit like this, I'd jump straight into the HWT. That's me - I've done it now and I think it might come out OK. OTOH, you can sell it now "as new" so...

    New Aero quartermaster seal jerky a2 return or keep it

    Body looks OK, sleeves kinda take away from it as they are long and very baggy.

    New Aero quartermaster seal jerky a2 return or keep it

    Yeah, same as the others. If it were "mine", I'd prolly not wear it like that. If I take the "way back time machine" and go back to 2009, I would love the look though. Up to you - what size is it?

    Aero Price Freeze till 31st Aug

    Hey, I did that with my kids, but I'm putting my granddaughter through private school now so well...I wish I were a (bigger) jerk, but have to be the one that helps her out. You get one and I'll enjoy your pics :)

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Double leather has one advantage over steel shanks as I learned on my way to Ireland/UK two months back. Even though we're "Pre-TSA" and get to normally run through the gates, the steel shanks in my Red Wings (I think I had those on) set off the alarms. So, for that sin, they tore my bags...
