    Another boring thread on how to order an Aero A-2

    Which color and hide is this one? This is the kind of color my 1756 had...to my eyes this is not really brown but a very dark olive drab.

    Another boring thread on how to order an Aero A-2

    This I deed helps Vezio, i am a little taller and heavier than you but this is the kind of fit I am looking for. Is that hide smooth or grained?

    Bill Kelso Mfg - Official Affiliate Thread

    I would like to know which russet hide they used for the jacket on facebook, it's pretty damn nice and it looks like it could become like Kurt's after 50 years of intensive use.

    See the previous page, it's the "Duke" jacket...aka the Snake Plissken replica. I'm waiting for the next promotion on that one to pull the trigger...and I wonder if the offer it in any kind of distressed hh. After all my father always told me that I look more like Kurt's son than his...

    Bill Kelso Mfg - Official Affiliate Thread

    I've been out from this board for a long time...however as far as I remember I was one of the first customers that tried the then new brand, Bill Kelso, something like two years ago. I have a BK A-2, very nice and trim jacket, and a M-422, I think one of the prototypes...both serious quality...

    Too Old for a Short Leather Jacket?

    I assume that nobody here is a fan of Battlestar Galactica and nobody recognised Lucy Lawless...anyway IMO Tricia Helfer is the right lady for that jacket.

    I finally got my Crown Jewel In my Collection!

    We'll see, perhaps I'll get a Langlitz Sam Brown, they sell them for 100$ and it would compliment it. I think "our" jackets were meant to be worn with a belt.

    I finally got my Crown Jewel In my Collection!
