@Woodyear nice jacket! Is that a current model or vintage offering?

Nah it's actually pretty short, at 24" back length for a medium which is really perfect in my opinion.
It's a relatively current model from a few years ago, can sometimes still be found on eBay if you search Levi's slim fit suede trucker. They really are slim fit too, unlike most American brands that label things as slim.

Now if only John at Goodwear would offer one of these in the Shinki leather...dare to dream!
Needles Rebuild Jean Jacket #1 in a size medium.
Needles Rebuild Jean Jacket #2 in a size large.
Heddels have a piece about these jackets, but I suspect that they're probably the sort of thing that should go into the "Just when you thought you had seen it all" thread.

It would probably be a beautiful jacket. You might have to wait a while to get one tough.
I saw this too. It is over $2K. Wow.

From the Aero Sales pages.. Black CXL Horse, Size 48
I generally think of "suede" as being an inferior leather. I think "rough out" is a different story but I don't know. I bet this breaks in nicely once it is beat up a bit.
Don't know anything about these guys. I emailed them and they said it is cow hide.

price seems ok.

That looks so perfect in CXL! I knew it, I knew Aeros is going to be the best version out there and it is. And the fit is perfect, especially the length of the jacket. Right at the belt. You got literally a perfect jacket.
I like this Schott dark blue. It almost looks black in the pictures. Wrote them about the size, they said it would probably be too short for me.
I probably have to go XL in School to get the length I need, especially in the sleeve.

I want them to make a black dyed over blue, whats it called, like a teacore? So that the more it is broken in the more it fades to blue. Riveted buttons instead of snaps, type 3 with hand warmer pockets. I'll look at the midnight blue and start eating more beans, rice, and tortillas in order to afford another jacket.

No, blue over the top cream. Then when it fades, it'll look like real denim and really confuse people!Blackened Blue Vicenza horsehide?
Someone needs to get Aero onto this.

Thanks @Monitor, I'm really stoked about this jacket, I really like the fit and FQHH is a beast & I think this pattern works really well for me.
I saw recently that Aero plans to add Troy Blanket lining as an option, keep your eye out for that, as that lining in a FQHH jacket like this sounds PERFECT..
Bought this right off the Levi's web page.
The Trucker Jacket
723340181
Black Buffalo Leather
XL
They gave me a 30% discount so it cost around $280. Had to go XL to get the length on the arms, but I am swimming in it. Don't know anything about buffalo, or how strong it is, but this is pretty thin, and very soft right out of the box. It certainly isn't a Black CXL Horse, Schott, LW, LVC, or any of the upcoming Aero line that is for sure. Made in India, and feels kinda flimsy. Don't know how it will wear, or hold up. I have been looking for a light weight jacket.Tempted to run it through the washer and dryer to beat it up a bit, and maybe shrink it. But then again maybe I will return it and wait for the Aero's to come out.
