    Hercules Leather Co London UK

    Now as to my opinion, from the photos and not from firsthand experience: I think the Grizzlies are clearly not on the same level as Aero, Himel, LW, and others who are known for this style. I don't like the look of the collar on them, especially, and the shearling panels don't look as thick...

    I'm going to post some of the images from the ebay listings as I find them. Half-Belt https://www.ebay.com/itm/233288962902 Grizzly Unclear if this is a "Hercules" or not, but it's a reproduction so maybe... Update: Mintvintage has corrected me, these Grizzly styles are NOT Hercules, but...

    Hercules Leather Co London UK

    From the "Finds and Deals" thread earlier today... I wrote to the ebay seller, Mintvintage, and asked about the jacket and the maker. It appears we have a new player in town: So very interesting! They seem to be a good deal cheaper than the others, so I'm curious about that -- I'm...

    Aero Open Day: August 17th, 2019

    Maybe around 350GBP, for a leather jacket. They do have other types of clothing, don't forget. They are absolutely worth a visit, sale or no. How can you not go if you're already there?

    Yeah. Most of the items this seller offers are thankfully too small, or I'd have a hard time not buying them.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Yes, but that doesn't matter much; it will age and patina. Half the time I think sellers apply a light coat of dressing to their jackets to make them photograph nicer, too.

    Man, is this ever nice. @technovox didn't exaggerate a thing!

    Oh man, that's a nice Cal, and it would fit me. Except maybe the sleeves are short for wear with gauntlet style gloves, maybe. But it isn't in the budget right now.

    Vanson Comet octagon 46

    Yes, yes. As Kim said in her email, these were slimmer cut. It fits me well through the chest and shoulders, and if I still had the 36" waist I did a couple of years ago, I'd probably keep it. At 33" I'm a little too skinny there, but I could still wear it if I wanted. I think this is really...

    Vanson Comet octagon 46

    ;-) Well, this is normally true, but this is a classified listing, so I can't indulge in speculation that I can't back up with at least some evidence.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    It does appear that the hem was cut off, removing the bottom button, to shorten the jacket. It's tagged XL, but the seller estimates it's a size S, which he thinks is a 38-39. I took out my own Thedi Shawl Collar (XL) and took measurements to compare, and the P2P is about the same, but the hem...
