    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Wow! Super nice Jacket - Don't recall seeing this one before. Really love the detail of the back panel - very stylish. Is that Navy Vicenza w/contrasting stitching? Reminds me of my Aero T-3 although the styles are totally different.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Wow! Super nice trucker - the color (Cordovan?) is really special looking as is the zipper closure. Extremely nice grain on all panels. Lucky you - I'm jealous!

    I Flew To Scotland to Pick up My Aero Leather Coat in Person

    Thanks so much for sharing your in person Aero experience and the wonderful series of images reflecting the event. The jacket is super nice and the locale (especially the last image of you/your companion) is almost like being there. Congratulations on your Aero jacket and thanks again for sharing!

    Leather smell changes

    Do you live near a waste water treatment or rendering plant? As you only notice the smell when outside maybe it's something other than the jacket(s).

    do you dare to commit to wear a single jacket for a month through all your waking hours?

    Your JL trucker has seasoned up nicely during the 3 week challenge. Other than the snap closures and quilted lining, it looks quite a bit like my Aero T-3 in Navy Vicenza. I got that jkt a little over a year ago and it has really broken in nicely. I wore it for a few days this week in...

    do you dare to commit to wear a single jacket for a month through all your waking hours?

    Wow - from this to your post just above in Navy which explains the lighter portions along the seams and such. Regardless, the Trucker style is just so cool/kewl to me regardless of what it's constructed of. My Type 3 is quite special to me and I got it (along w/the natural Vicenza T-3 back in...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    You're not an Old Pony - you are a majestic Clydesdale! Really though, nice set of jacket pics - the new cropped hair look is a winner!

    do you dare to commit to wear a single jacket for a month through all your waking hours?

    Nice trucker - you must have one in each color - what was the original hue of this particular one. It reminds me of my Aero in Navy Vicenza w/caramel stitching - a statement jacket for sure!

    Berluti Jacket

    Are the images of those leather jackets AI generated?

    What's going on with the FL site?

    Using Mac 24 w/fiber connection - lightening fast! Thanks to the IT folks for your dedication and expertise.

    Vintage Photos of Leather Jackets

    Great image - I assume you are referring to the fuel prices posted on the sign - watch and weep indeed. I remember that gasoline was about .25 cents per gallon back in the early 70's. Time flies as have the prices - of everything!

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    It's posts like this (and so many before it) that make the FL forum so much more than discussing outerwear. I hope the sluggishness of the site is resolved and that the fine folks that reside/stop by here will continue to due so until the issue is resolved.

    Woman has street artist paint on her brand new thousand dollar leather jacket…

    I certainly admire the artisan's skills and technique's employed to create the image, but blowing $1K on that jacket plus the cost of the 'painting' is pure foolishness.

    Aero natural Vicenza

    No real marks/stains as the jacket is still new except for the extensive creasing of the sleeves and other areas that are affected by movement. I did apply a light leather conditioner (as I did w/my Navy Vicenza T-3) and some small areas became temporarily darker but evened out. I do realize...

    Aero natural Vicenza

    Stunning jacket! I received my Nat. Vicenza Aero Type III back in early May. I gave it a brief 3 hour sun bath - 1.5 hr per front/back. It did darken a bit. Way too hot here to wear outside but I do wear for a few hours now and then to help break it in more. The Natural Vicenza is amazing...

    Briselblack Boots: What do you think?

    I'm rather tall (4' 26") and the boots do not go above my knees. The shaft is about 1" below my kneecap and where my legs bend (in back) so they don't impede walking. I measured thoroughly before ordering to ensure proper fit & movement.

    Briselblack Boots: What do you think?

    Here's a pair of custom Wesco Boss boots I ordered/received back in 2021. They have 20" shafts (unlined) and steel toes w/natural mid sole and heel. Really comfortable boots - Wesco is known for their top quality materials and construction and these boots reflect that standard. The extra tall...

    What is your favourite lining? Post pictures!

    Here are some images of two Aero jackets I have with the quilted rayon lining. The first is of a black HH 1/2 w/brick colored quilted lining. I obtained this jacket about 20 years ago - rarely worn so that may be why the lining is in pristine condition. The 2nd set of images are of a LHB I...

    Pretty spiffy attire for changing a tire - always the pinnacale of style regardless of the situation.

    1960's Leather Jacket

    Do you have any reference to the make of the black jacket? It appears to be horsehide but I can't identify the maker. The bottom jacket is quite unique - reminds me a bit of a Carhartt type. Thanks a heap.
