How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

Did anyone here get the Ralphs-Pugh?

I did. Wasn't sure I would, since I put in a snipe just a little over the highest bid.

I was there at the end, but could not go higher due to size. Will this jacket fit you? You got one amazing jacket! If this would have fit me I would have bought it and even paid more!

RPs is this style and era are very scarce, then factor in the condition and you have one fine catch.

Please report when you have it in hand.

If I'm lucky, I'll get them by the end of the month.

Will do. Sizing might be on the small side, but if it doesn't fit, I'll probably try to sell it for about what I paid.

You’ll be sick of seeing this jacket soon enough! I’ll get some decent pics tomorrow.

Nice aero leather… J106 or Ridley

Nice aero leather… J106 or Ridley

‘Slim Fit J106’ direct from Aero - Denny explained that the Ridley name technically only applies to the slim fit 3 pocket model that Thurston sells (though I suspect the pattern is the same).

Another swing and a miss. Fits perfectly minus the sleeves. They are super short! I’ve applied a bit of dark brown Urad to the areas that don’t look completely bare. A good candidate for a repro. I’m hoping Regius will be up to it! Would make a super cool two tone….

And post “clear Urad”. What a heartbreaker!

This made me a believer in urad, at least visually. Doesn’t it initially leave a sticky film? Do you buff it out or just give it time to work itself out?

It is sticky for about 5minutes after it goes on. This jacket drank it up like crazy though so it was dry very quickly. I don’t know if any other other product that will hydrate and rebuild a top coat like URAD.

If you’re moving it on, I’d be interested in it if it’s 23” pit - pit.

Never heard of this product before, interesting. I typically use Pecards on jackets.

I’d love to send it to ya but it’s probably going to be be to short in the sleeves for you too!

@Observe
Urad is very different from Pecards, a lot of it stays on top of the leather and literally creates a new topcoat. Works best for really worn out surfaces and restoration, like in ton's example above. Urad finish tends to be a bit shiny.

I’d test it out on something small before you go wild on a jacket. It’s not for everyone.
