Hi all, I’m looking to purchase my first leather jacket and stumbled on this forum when trying to find more info on certain manufacturers. I’ve found all the conversations to be very informative, although the amount of new information is a bit overwhelming. So I thought that I should post my own...
Sad for me, GREAT for you! …that I am selling a highly customized Premier Highwayman. Really LOVE this jacket but it is one size too small. For reference I’m 5’ 10.5”, 165 lbs. I wear 33-34” jeans, medium tee shirts. Many would say this fits me perfectly, but I realized my preference is to have...

Now for the really fun part.... I'm am at a 3 way impass for the actual...
Well Aero had their firesale recently and when they are throwing rack jackets out the door with intl shipping at $500USD, I just had to throw my money at them. Customs didn't even hit me so it does feel like a great deal. We really are some shameless addicts in this culture.
Anyways, my...
Hello TFL,
I come to you folks for advice after scouring makers upon makers, second-hand marketplaces and Paris thrift stores.
Some of you may have seen me in the "ask a question get an answer" thread asking about a vintage heavy FQHH Grais with quilted lining in my quest for my winter/colder...
I'm thinking of getting one of these leather jackets in the future. I prefer a jacket with good mobility without needing a full bi-swing back and underarm gussets/footballs.
Among these 3 jackets which one would give me the best mobility when I need to reach my arms forward and upward? Would...
Hi all,
i'm considering an Aero Highwayman. I live in Perth Australia and the climate is a fair bit warmer than Perth, Scotland! Whats the lightest weight version Aero has made either past or present? I love the look of the Horsehide... I've seen a Thunder Bay edition which claims to use...
Hi All,
Very excited to post here for the first time after putting down a deposit for custom Aero Seven with Thurston. I’ve always wanted to go the custom route given my appreciation for craftsmanship and that I’ve had a hell of a time finding a jacket that fits (6’4 190bs with a long torso). I...
Hey guys,
I'm just putting this here as a long shot, to see if any of you have one of these available that's not seeing too much wear lately, and feel it could go to a new home (bonus points for friendly prices ☺️)
I'm searching for one with something near these measurements:
P2P: 22-22.5in...
This is my first post, so for the starts I wanted to say hello to everyone!
I'm browsing this forum anonymously for a long time looking at all the beautiful jackets. Finally I decided to pull the trigger on Aero, but I'm super intimidated by the ordering process, precisely by the measurements...
For sale is a Aero Leather Type 3 Suede "Jean Jacket" in size 42. Tan suede.
Bought from Japan but unfortunately a catch and release for me.
Condition is good on the whole. No major faults that I can find. It is however worn and I've tried to show the wear on the suede. I think it could be...
Couldn't find a thread to fit this in but I thought it needed to be mentioned here.
Ken Calder, who not only founded Aero but this whole repro hobby so many of us are engaged in, is in surgery today for cancer according to a post from Holly. (Public post, so I felt alright sharing it here.)...
Hi all,
I just got in my new custom Aero! I noticed my jacket has a lot of grain. That's completely fine with me, and expected. But on some areas of the jacket, the grain is pretty raised up (not sure how else to phrase that). The aesthetics I'm totally fine with. I just don't know if this is...

Hello!
I came here from Reddit. They referred me to The Fedora Lounge, as this seems to be the place where the experts and enthusiasts are.
So here's my very first post...
I've been searching for my "forever jacket" at age 40, as a future reward for my own weight loss... and unfortunately this...
Location : Estonia
Bought used from DE. Worn a couple of times inside, one time outside for an hour.
Too big for me even when layered. Sleeves too roomy, pit-to-pit and upper back too roomy, a bit too long in body length.
Main specs:
Pit-to-pit width: 53-54 cm
Bottom hem width: 47-48 cm...
Greetings!
Background
On a cold snowy day in Estonia my first Aero jacket arrived.
I've been planning (and continue to do so) to buy my first custom "proper" jacket, mainly considering Simmons Bilt and Aero, since I like that kind of style / patterns / leather choices.
Recently I managed to...
Hey folks,
I am creating this thread for two reasons:
1 . INFO - On the off chance that I'm not the only fool who kept looking for info about different Aero leathers and didn't know that Aero themselves have a lot of information about each (slightly) hidden in their own website, I wanted to put...
Hello everyone,
After taking all of your advice into account from my "Best Leather for a Lifelong Jacket?" thread back in May, I ended up ignoring pretty much all of it and instead decided to go with Tumbled CXL FQHH. After finally receiving the jacket today, I decided to take it to the one...
