Ha, it does cause some indecision on some mornings. And I have been thinking about offloading a bunch of them (a Vanson or two, Classic, Mars, which is actually for sale already, maybe the Langlitz, the IH Type 1 I got from Ton, the one I believe is a Taubers cross-zip...)

In any case, here is what I wore back into work...Perseus's Steed:

I rarely see or hear too much on this company, but I really like their jackets. This model looks stellar in every way.

Superb, lighter weight HH that ages quickly. Tough to see in the photo but take my word for it. Scuff marks, scratches, undercoat popping through, etc. A few folks here own the brand. There was one D-Pocket I recall where the brown was more reddish. Maybe @ton312 owned it but I can't recall. Real nice jackets. The main zip did go belly up on me so I had Alan/JL replace it with a YKK 10. I just like my zips to work. I recommend checking them out if you see one on eBay or wherever else.

Indeed I had two Pegasus jackets, the CR and the D pocket S. Both were extremely nice and very well made. Kevin, the proprietor is an extremely nice, native Chicagoan as well.

Completly off-topic but weren't you teasing a new Aero a few weeks back? Something about first of its kind here at the forum?

Raining stair rods in Bristol this morning and thunderstorms forecast later today. Still the warmest, most comfortable leather coat that I have ever owned: Freewheelers Journeyman in jet black deerskin. With woollen ‘Canvey’ cap by Old Town (also pullover shirt by Darcy Clothing, Fairisle cardigan by White Stuff, navy moleskin Plains trousers by Old Town, and black Comfort Craftsman Boots by RM Williams).

Pretty great combo, sir.

My Thunderbay arrived. Goatskin was a good choice I think, it weighs 6.6 lbs, much less than CXL would. I asked for the minimum strip at the hem, which is 3 inches. Moria Mac did a great job, I'm very happy with it. It has black shearling in the body and black moleskin for the sleeves, which I don't find grabby so far, although I've only worn it with a t-shirt. The collar is very nice as well, it makes me want to send all my jackets to Aero to have mouton collars fitted... but that would be crazy. Sorry for the ****py indoor pics, it's raining buckets outside and I don’t have a proper camera. Thanks to @Peacoat , @rocketeer and @ton312 for their advice.
