Aero Sonoma Racer with Board Racer Collar - Black Steerhide

[Bunyip]

I wouldn't mind seeing a pic of all of your new jackets together, a good brag portrait. I'm losing track of your empire!

 

[Peacoat]

Yes, I would like to see photos of you wearing it in the daylight. From what I can see, it looks great.

No daylight today as the snow comes down... and not much coming through the windows so I tried a little iPhone flash and this was the best I could do for now, better than yesterday. This is my first steer from Aero, and yes it is marginally heavier than the FQHH racer, but I'm not bothered by a heavy jacket. Time for it to get out in the snow and start breaking in...

OK, now lay your collection out on that couch and take a panoramic photo.

I had zero intention of actually doing this until you were the second request. I do have a goat 30s half belt but I think that will be for sale so I stuck to the moto jackets that I wear or will wear regularly. I have ridden in the Board Racer but that and the Sheene are mainly for pub wear.

Sonoma, Ridley, Board, Sheene, Sonoma

Stunning collection! Your brown Sonoma is definitely my favorite

I'm just a guy with a problem...

It's mine too, although I really do wear all of these regularly, the Ridley the least.

 

[Cooperson]

Good fit, with the grain showing already the hide should look very nice once it's broken in. Nice collection too!

Do you get the 13th free?

Do you get the 13th free?

I was hoping for something closer to the 7th or 8th for free... my wife is patient but not a saint.

 

[handymike]

I think I might need to "sneak" in #2......

You may have started a new TFL custom -- the "couch shot"

Have you considered branching out to other brands?

I have, I didn't purposely build an Aero collection, but once I started working with Thurston and they had my size nailed, it was the path of least resistance. Makes it easy since they have so many models available. I do own Schott, Vanson and an old Hercules that I got from a fellow board member.
