FS: Aero Board Racer CXLHH Cordovan sz.44

Messages
17,493
PRICE
€460 shipped within EU.

INFO
Aero Leathers Board Racer, made from heavy Cordovan CXL Horsehide. Lined in olive Cotton drill. Non-standard zippered slash hand-warmers added. Beautiful jacket.

CONDITION
No faults.
Visible general signs of use, consistent with normal & regular wear, such as creases, patina, faded finish on the cuffs, seams, etc., though nothing out of the ordinary. What needs to be pointed out, however, is...

❃ The originally installed No.5 Talon main zipper suffered a failure so the jacket was sent to Aero where the zipper was replaced with a 2-way riri, which, objectively, was a massive improvement - Although of the same size, the zipper feels indestructible, not to mention that sharp clicking sound! - and as you can see, on the outside, it is absolutely impossible to tell that this jacket had been through any post-production alteration.

❃ Lining got worn through at two places, at the hem. Common issue with Cotton drill.

SIZE
Size 44 and the approximate measurements, taken to the best of my abilities, are...

  • Chest width (armpit to armpit): 60 cm / 23.5"
  • Waist width (across end of zipper): 54 cm / 21"
  • Shoulders width (back): 48 cm / 19"
  • Sleeve length (outside curve): 71 cm / 28"
  • Back length (without collar): 70 cm / 27.5"
MISC
If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to write. Happy to help. Offers are good. Shipping from the EU. Thank you.

Holy ****, what a beautiful jacket.
You sure about the "cordovan" part? Looks very much like brown CXL. I guess a very brownish shade of cordovan?
Man, I could use this as a desktop picture, fantastic example of why CXL is such a top tier leather.
You can almost see galaxies and nebulas there.

Excellent eye. Exactly something that's been bothering me ever since I made the thread and honestly... I am just not certain. The color is right in-between, sometimes giving off definite Cordo and then appearing straight out brown.

For now, I will go with Cordovan because Red Wings burgundy shoe cream, intended for their cordovan footwear, blends with the jacket seamlessly.

It is a beautiful jacket. Soft as a blanket, too.

Sold! Thank you very much, everyone.




No time to do it. It's cloudy, dark and there's fog and it's basically Silent Hill every day here but imagine the best fitting Aero ever. Plus, Ksozay can always do it! :D

I mean, we all have our price...

Works from here. I've shipped a few things already and it all reached the States just fine. I thought it's been settled? In any case, shouldn't be any issues as long as the value is stated, which can still be anything but the gift.
