How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

[Leigh H]

So I'm hesitant to use the most meaningless words on here "I'm done", but I think with this one and my upcoming Field Leathers jacket, I'm pretty much there. The combo checks off a lot of wish list items for me and with a couple other recent pick ups, I can't imagine what else I'd want without getting beyond gluttonous in the leather jacket world. In fact, I really need to shed a few, but I think that'll be next year once everything gets a deep test drive and I can just focus on my favs and narrow it down to a top 10 (even that sounds nuts)

In the meantime, great deal on this. RMC or at least this model, this particular jacket, has lived up to the hype for me. Leather, cut, workmanship, etc. all top notch. Got a great deal on it, fit picks in a couple weeks once it gets some wears. That collar, oh boy, need to figure out what to do with it, maybe Farrah Fawcett hair flip style.

LOL. Most of my jacket wearing happens around the house and in the yard. Hardly ever get out anymore, but when I do, it's done proper LOL.

Just trying to get some cheat wears in the early morning before the heat kicks in. Should be really nice and broken in by fall.

What model is this? It’s AWESOME!

lol, I like the rebel spirit though. Cross-zip jackets aren't for people that follow the rules - wear it proud with shorts and crocs for all I care.

Like undyed/suntanned? Amazing warm colour.

I am not sure I have to ask. I just know it is full veg and not painted or coated, hoping this is the one to transform the most.

Is this the Ralphs-Pugh pattern? He’s getting really good!

Question for those whom have placed recent orders with Aero directly. Do they still send a spec sheet to review before production? In the past I have always submitted my specs, Aero reviews them and creates their own sort of punch list they send to me to review, we agree and it goes into production.

With my latest, I submitted my spec sheet, paid my deposit, but have yet to see Aero’s punch list. I suppose I am to assume they caught all the tweaks (a small number in this case but significant nonetheless). Just curious if this is simply how they operate now. I’ve been more than a bit frustrated by this process and it for damn sure ain’t my first rodeo.

A brand new Aero!?!?!?

I have to disagree on this. I never thought I would say this when it comes to leather jacket and sweatpants, but @TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead managed to pull it off!

A brand new wool Aero, yes. The final frontier. A modified version of this:

Hey there
My only leatherjacket is a motorcycle driving jacket. Extremely strong, but you look like batman

It's not that expensive like quality jackets but from the material perspective, it's far stronger than any mall jacket. Up to 2.6mm thick leather.

But by reading this, I really need an Aero jacket. When I buy, price does not matter. So i'll take a flight end of the year and buy in Scotland directly in the store. I need them to take my measurements and then go for it.

Why next year? I want to take some time for a diet
I'm not fat, 89kg by 186cm but the model I choosed seems to be slim fit.

It is the board racer from Aero in chrome excel horse leather in black. Together with my 18oz Japan denim would be a great match I think

I just don't want to order online. It should be perfect. My only one. Forever

Not exactly RP repro. I wanted a Hercules style back because I don't have one yet. And he added extra topstitch in the front. I should get the jacket soon.

Yes. Chloe is their communication person from the factory. They upgraded their system too. So you get an email with something like this attached instead of just words:

That was pretty quick (lead time), your wool HB jacket.
