Thanks! My friend who is proxying for me just got it. Hopefully he will be able to ship it to me shortly.
@jeo glad to hear such a positive description of the leather. I'm really excited to feel how different it is to the rather thick ponyhide on my Seattle Woolen aviator.
Thanks! I really scrambled to get it. Maybe nobody else was going to grab it quickly, but I wasn't going to take the chance.
Thanks! Very excited to get it.
That Taubers is nice too, we were just continuing a conversation from a couple pages ago. I guess that's how these threads go sometimes. It does make things confusing.
Yeah I'm quite excited to get it. Might take a bit of time as the seller is at Inspiration Japan so they won't ship it for...
Thanks! This thread has gotten me several great jackets. Late 30s-mid 40s aviators are my favorite types of jackets and my favorite leather color is mid-light brown so this one could not be any better. Plus the design is absolutely beautiful and unique and the condition was a big selling point.
@AerGuitar very nice work! I was goong to ask what the jacket was because it fit you so nicely and then I scrolled down and saw that you actually made it! Very impressive.
A couple more recent fits:
Dark brown jacket is a 40s Windward and the light brown is a late 40s Sportclad
Thanks! I'm not sure. I wouldn't expect that as the hair has been treated. It could still happen though.
Yeah I'm a fan of them obviously. I'm excited to get it!
