So after a long wait (since November last year) my new Aero Halfbelt Deluxe has finally arrived (yesterday) :D
It's size 38 in midweight jerky seal HH but surprisingly quite hefty at 1.9 kg!!
The hide is still stiff, shiny, & smooth being new and all...though I am sure the "stiffness" is...
Hi all,
I just got myself an Aertex battledress (for tropic/desert use) which appears to be from 1944. I can't find too much info about it, apart the fact that it might've been made in India (not sure how to identify the origin of the battledress from the stamps on the jacket)
From what I...
Hi all,
I'd like to share some pics of the new ELC Monarch A-2 jacket I got last week. I really like this jacket and love breaking it in. Too bad the weather is getting too warm, even for an A-2. The (horse) hide is buttery soft and has a thickness similar to the ELC Werber horsehide.

It's a size 38 regular with a few modifications which were...
Hi all,
Just scored these on ebay...size 8 Medium
Seems like it's a British Army issue (from 1944) made by a company called Moccasin Makers in Northampton.
The overall condition appears to be very good with very little wear (mild wear on the sole).
Anyone has a bit of...
Hi all,
I'm just wondering if anyone own/has owned/handled the Levi's reproduction of the 1930 Menlo Cossack jacket? It would appear that it's made from goatskin and is unlined.
If you have the Rin Tanaka book (Motorcycle Jackets: A century of leather jackets) it would be like the ones on...
Hi folks,
Been a while since I posted here, so I thought I show off a jacket I recently won on ebay (for £67, which is not too bad).
It's a HH jacket much like the Aero long half belt, but doesn't actually come with the side buckles.
The lining is a replacement and done by Aero in...
