Aero Sheene in Seal Vicenza..
That is a fantastic looking jacket, really is. And one of the nicest backs I've seen on a leather jacket too. Worth dragging the thread up again just to compliment it!- Rich22

Advice needed on new Aero Cafe Racer jacket
Whats the difference in the ageing of the FQHH CXL to the vincenza? And I mainly just wear a jacket when it's cold enough to need a zipped up jacket :D- Rich22

Advice needed on new Aero Cafe Racer jacket
Ah, that's just with the Board racer is it? Thats good. Glad to hear from someone else that also went without the kidney panel, and without the zippers on the hand warmers, and added the yoke. Cheers! I haven't heard much about the Vicenza HH, I'll have to do some googling! Do you have any...- Rich22

Advice needed on new Aero Cafe Racer jacket
That's odd, when I quoted Sloan a whole load of extra text appeared, which I responded to, and you can see in the quote in my post. On the thread you can only see the first few points... Peculiar...- Rich22

Advice needed on new Aero Cafe Racer jacket
Thanks for tackling all those points in your reply, Sloan! I'm wondering why is you think the plain back with high yoke would look odd? It seems a common thing they do, swapping kidney panel for yoke, I called to ask them. Other Cafe Racers I've seen from various other brands have the yoke...- Rich22

Advice needed on new Aero Cafe Racer jacket
Thanks for the reply! I'm in London, but I have considered a trip up to Edinburgh for other reasons recently, so could kill two birds with one stone. I'm glad you thought they weren't too stiff, though I do hope the leather didn't actually feel like work boots. haha. I also like my inside...- Rich22

To bi-swing back or not to bi-swing back?
What is the cummerbund/waistband panel at the bottom called? I'm thinking I might not be a fan. Here's an example of an extreme one: And here's an example of a nicer back in my mind, with no waistband but a high yoke instead: Damn, that didn't work... hmm, so imagine this back without the...- Rich22

To bi-swing back or not to bi-swing back?
Do Aero allow stylistic changes still? I thought they'd got burnt by that and stopped. I like a back like the Speedway for example, and don't much like the Sunburst. Haha. The reason why I'm not keen on the back of the Cafe Racer by Aero is combo of the bi-swing, the lack of yoke and the...- Rich22

To bi-swing back or not to bi-swing back?
Thanks for the reply. The V shape is one of the reasons I like the Cafe Racer jackets so much! I'll drop Aero an email today to see what they have to say. Just torn between the fabulous looking FQHH chromexcel versions, or the more sensible and pliable lightweight leathers. By the way, am I...- Rich22

To bi-swing back or not to bi-swing back?
I'm currently looking on buying my first leather jacket, and in my mid 30s I think this is more than overdue. Cafe racers look to me the best bet, and Aero seem like a really great company. I don't particularly like the look of bi-swing backs, from a side view anyway, and prefer the cleaner...- Rich22
