    Aero Grand Theft Sale – who's going?

    Oh boy, SJC jeans for 80 quid. What a helluva bargain. If the leathers were comparatively priced I am very happy for my bank account that I didn't attend.

    1923 Pendleton Harding Shawl Collar Cardigan

    The knitting pattern may be from 1923 but the design/shape of the cardigan is totally modern. A true 1923 cardigan would have a chunky collar and would be much longer in the body.

    Aero/LVC Rockabilly now called Rockafella in size 36, received today.

    Cherry meaning FQHH? I don't think so. This is a style that works best with lighter leather. I found even the mid-weight horse too restricting. I think it works best in goat or cloth.

    Why are people often saying, that denim-jackets have to be worn open??

    Me neither. It's probably a local custom in Trenchfriend's village or peer group.

    Why are people often saying, that denim-jackets have to be worn open??

    That's only because you live in the UK. In the US the officer would have shot you first just to be on the safe side.

    What are Shirt Garters and How Does One Wear Them.

    Kinda makes sense for modern short hem shirts and low rise trousers if you want to tuck but not for vintage clothes. I mean, shirt tails covered at least your ass if not half of the thighs as well and the trousers came up to the navel. Who would need shirt garters with that set-up?

    Thurston Bros. - Official Affiliate Thread

    Is your brick and mortar shop still closed or did you re-open? I'll be in Seattle in two weeks. Although I am not in the market for a jacket right now there are some of Aero's jackets I would like to try on to get an idea how they fit and if they are suitable for me. Thanks.

    Higher rise jeans for men: Yay or nay?

    Low waist trousers combined with a long torso and short legs make for a very unfavorable appearance. You can only win with high waist trousers. Another added benefit is that you are not mistaken as a plumber anymore. ;) Good wide high waist jeans are SJC's Brakeman Waist Overalls and Freddie's...

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    I just found these boots on the LL Bean site. I don'>t think they were mentioned here yet but they seem quite nice, similar to Red Wing. Does anybody have them? http://global.llbean.com/shop/Mens-Katahdin-Iron-Works-%23174-Engineer-Boots%2C-Plain-Toe/78205.html

    First Aero Jacket - Help!

    I agree with Sloan. My 1930s half belt is 24.5 in the back and I am 186 cm. If you make it even longer than the fit jacket the proportions are messed up and you won't be able to put your hands into your jeans pockets without a fuss.

    Sprezzatura vs trying too hard.

    The pocket square picks up the red from the polka dots and from the lapel button hole.

    Sprezzatura vs trying too hard.

    I only buy vintage ties. Problem solved.

    Reproduction classic workwear

    Dinerman, the lower legs seem to hold up pretty well. Btw, that orphaned suit jacket I bought from you is a perfect fit. Just need to move the buttons back. ebill, Dinerman is probably your best bet. He is extremely knowledgeable.
