Thanks Sloan! It has a bit of a connection to me as well (other than just looking great), my wife's parents are interred in a cemetery called Holy Rood... That made it a bit easier to talk her into the purchase:)

is that the one in westbury? if so some of my wifes family is interned there. BTW cool jacket.

The sleeves look perfect to me, and the body will shape more once the leather relaxes a bit. Congrats and wear it in good health.

Look what I found on the Aero sale page! looks like there was a mistake on the first attempt to make my jacket, and they remade it and this one got sold on.

No, that would be my 50's HBD with leather trimmed torso, heavy brown corduroy pockets, and... lol

Boyo - you've made a good choice - nothing compares to Aero's cordovan color. I like to match my cordovan FQHH Windward with a pair of Alden shell cordovan (color #8)
AMAZING ....enjoy!

Thank for the compliments, unfortunately the weather here has gotten bad ( read 65 degrees and sunny) so it hasn't been leather jacket weather since I've received it... Although I do look fabulous sitting on the couch watching TV while wearing it..

hey Boyo any bleeding yet?

If not would you please conduct a bleed test? Which is, just get something white - a cloth or old knackered t-shirt will do - and rub down a sleeve with it.

Cheers!

Schitzo,

I just gave it a rub down, no bleeding or color transfer noticed. I purposely wore it in a light rain a week ago or so, more to assist the break in then to assess any bleeding but so far I have not noticed any bleeding.
