Like the C Type. I don't think I noticed the pictures behind the jackets before. Maybe they're new.

Isn't there one posted up here? I swear someone bought one...either way, it's pretty cool. But I not know if I could pull it off.

Not sure about that specific design...but Aero has used the leather before..if not ongoing.
My first reaction is.....eeeewwwww. Too close to flesh tones for me. Looks like somebody skinned a person.

I've already got a very soft cream leather cafe racer as a summer jacket that I'm fond of, even if it doesn't love rain very much. I just posted the Aero because some people have spoken very positively about deer skin and it looks as though it's a very limited offer. It would also be cool to see some pics of them on here.

I think there was an updated white elk hide thread very recently, but not Aero. Nice to see something different, though.

I just wish Aero would get a move on with releasing the new designs, especially given the six-month wait.

Its the same pictures with the same background as before, maybe they just didnt have it up for a while. I almost bought this before I got samples of it, and I went with the aged tan steer instead.

It looks super special in the pics but it is just "white" medium weight horse that I personally dont like one bit.

Had my Aero Deer Skin jacket on today. Love it!

It's not really deerskin, just looks like it. I had one made for my wife back when they first offered this hide. She won't wear it because she's afraid to get it dirty....otherwise it's a nice jacket and hide.

Aero has always had cool background pics. I like the ones with the D-type. Like in this Hercules model picture.

 

[Cooperson]

I'm sure it's a real nice, soft, summer weight hide but no :-(

 

[deluxestyling]

They're old pictures but it's pretty much the same now just a little more broken in. I've put these up before but good reference to the Aero pictures you can see how the deer skin looks once worn in.

Buddy, I love that jakcet. I've told you, if you sell it, I want it!

 

[Edward]

I remember them having something along these lines a couple of years ago, though then it was the 30s Halfbelt, I think. Had I the cash to hand, I'd jump on one of these.

 

[Bunyip]

I really like it. How slim is the slim fit half belt?

 

[deluxestyling]

Thanks Butte. Here's some close ups I just took. Can't say enough good things about this hide. Wore it all day yesterday, about six hours of that was driving in a car and due to it's light soft feel I never felt uncomfortable.

 

[Bunyip]

How do you cean that hide? I mean, you dont want it squeeky clean, but what would you tret it with etc?

 

[deluxestyling]

I've never cleaned it, come to think of it I've never cleaned any of my leather jackets. Does anyone?

 

[Capesofwrath]

I use saddle soap with light coloured leather which shows the dirt.

Not 100% sure, but I think James May is wearing an Aero Deerskin at the start of this clip.

On closer inspection, maybe not, but I'll leave the post anyway!
