I need that Ruskin label in a jacket. Would be perfect in a premier HWM, CXL Midnight, top of sleeve zips, silver hardware, royal blue cotton drill liner. I wonder if this would be possible?
I wasabout to repsond to this with the suspicion that it's unlikely, but I see Holly has already confirmed. As I understand it, the revivived Ruskin label is going to stand completely alone as a separate brand, covering a later period of design than Aero, so it wouldn't make commercial sense to blend the two.
Anyway, I can’t wait to order a Heroes jacket in my size. Not sure about the dimensions, sleeve size, shoulders etc. according to the male model it looks pretty straightforward.
From what I recall of the 90s when late sixties and early 70s leathers of this sort of style were more available on the vintage market we could afford as students, this sort of thing generally fitted a bit like an A2 (which, of course, you can see in its design-geneology).
