    My Second Thedi Arrived- Mixed feelings

    I think making what is a short style jacket longer can easily make the jacket look off and weird even. I have two Aero shorter style jackets both came in shorter than requested (falling just below the belt). However, if you stop focusing on the length you may be surprised how quickly you begin...

    Bill Kelso "Archive" Jackets - Reproductions

    I have had three jackets from BK (all shipped to me from Greece) all beautifully made. Sizing was usually a bit off but the biggest issue for me was the wait time and the haphazard communication. The price has also shot through the roof, that with the fact we are out of the EU puts them way...

    Aero has a new leather called Pinnacle

    Recieved my new Royale Pinnacle on Friday. More russet than Cognac I would say. Cannot really add much more than has already been said. by Canuck Panda in his excellent review. I am very pleased with it, easy to wear and already developing some nice creases. I went with Aero's wild card lining...

    The Cognac is not really Cognac as in the first sample Aero got from which they made an Aeromarine. The first batch proper Aero received is more reddish brown, still beautiful though.

    Waiting Too Long ruining excitement?

    I waited up to a year for a jacket and another year+ for mods to be made on the same jacket with the same Greek based maker! Never again. Aero in my opinion have got it right, three months or there-abouts and have been great at communicating the process from start to finish in my expeirance

    Aero has a new leather called Pinnacle

    Doubt there is much in the way of samples around. I am assuming that they had some Pinnacle in order to make that Aeromarine but maybe just enough for the one sample jacket. It will be a few weeks yet before Aero get any from Horwean. I have my order in, the leather looks very nice and my...

    Aero has a new leather called Pinnacle

    I placed an order for a Royale in Pinnacle Cognac couple weeks ago. They contacted me to confirm couple of points before they go into production! Confused me a bit because Holly said they would not be getting any Pinnacle in for2-3 months. Regardless, always exciting, the anticipation and wait!

    Aero Seven fit check

    Sleeves look spot on to me. Hate sleeves that come half way down your hands! The fit looks over-all great but it's you that are wearing it and will know best. Does this leather give a little over time? Most leathers seem to.
