    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    The D-pocket is gone completely, and it looks like someone buffed the sleeves with a belt sander until the top coat was removed. I've never seen such uneven wear between the body and sleeves. What could cause this?

    That's too bad. I don't know how long it had been going on by the time I found it.

    Another weird Aero? from a Japanese seller. Label looks to be for a German-market Aero jacket that, but I never heard of such a thing. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F362890735999

    Leather and other fabrics combinations

    Mostly, I like a leather jacket to be all leather in the shell, with a fabric lining (of whatever type). If a jacket is primarily textile, but has some leather trim, that's fine, but the half-half jackets that you see sometimes from Aero aren't really my speed. The wool/leather 2-tone...

    Frye Boots discounted at hautelook.com

    Various styles, up to 55% off. I picked up a pair of Trench Combat Shearling boots at 56% off, in the color I wanted, and in my size, and it was the only place I could find them, the sale price making it the icing on the cake. While I've been hearing in recent years that Frye have fallen off...

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

    I can't say I'm a fan of the braid work look, but 2.0mm = 5 oz. if this maker has other styles, they'd be worth looking into.

    That and the open seam on the sleeve cuff. You'll see Johnson Leathers jackets for around $200-400, needing a repair like that, I'd have to knock about $50 off that. It'd be reasonable with free shipping if you can fix that seam economically.

    Does it come with the little man purse or is that extra?

    Anyone spec'ed leather jacket with alpaca wool in sleeves?

    My half belt deluxe is lined in alpaca, with cotton drill in the sleeves. I have no problems with the lining, which is warm but not super warm. For warmth in cold weather I layer under with a wool sweater.

    Keep it up, my friend. I love seeing your new designs each time they come out. Always daring and taking new directions. And masterful quality.

    Simmons Bilt. What’s happened?

    This whole thread seems unnecessary. OP experiences a brief glitch with the website, and posts here alleging that SB has either been hacked or gone out of business, neither of which is fact. In light of the usual bad publicity for SB that gets generated by this forum whenever they're brought up...

    Very unusual design for an Aero. I'm not sure that this is the Galashiels, Scotland Aero but if it is, it must be a one-off. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F143506978727
