Yeah I forgot about that one! I only remember the green wool. Does it look CXL? I've got a Seven in that hide in the works. I hope it is on par with CXL finish but easier to wear...

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

It’s def got some pull up but as of now the green looks essentially black. Unfortunately the leather on mine is situated in such a way that it will take a while to truly develop.

Love this! Really straight to the point halfbelt with a great back design, love the collar and the leather looks awesome as well.

That's weird. Even if you were, since when is that a problem?

Beauties!
Thanks for your comment. I recall you started a Type III thread with far more images of your assortment of Type III jackets with 2 Vanson Mavericks that are stellar! One in particular is with the zipper/button closure which appears to be a one off. As I noted in my description of my 4 modest Type III's, the Vanson is really a great all around leather jacket that can be called upon in a pinch and won't let me down. The Aero is far more a statement Type III for when something special is required.

I have wanted one of these since it was released. it's en route! I couldn't be more excited for this one. The deal was far too good to pass up. Put a fork in me...I'M DONE....
Nice, who makes it?

Aero Majestic! I've wanted for so long but wasn't quite willing to go full boat on a roughout jacket. With Aero's discount code and the VAT removal it's coming to me for an absolute steal (in my opinion).

Is that the one that was "reserved"?
edit: I see it's now "sold". Nice score!

Ordered a new Harrington in navy now it's getting in to the Autumn. Bit of a punt; as ever with a new company there's the concern about sizing. Their Trustpilot rating is very high indeed, but I always worry about that minimal (1% in this case) element where they complain about *everything*. Still, in a sad way it's less of a red flag than the sort of uniform top level feedback with a small number of individual reviews you so often see on Amazon marketplace these days....

Been on ebay some time, finally got to give away price. The label is worth the cost. Good example of RP producing a variety of leather outerwear. This is early 50s

Please share the size.Just arrived. Wanted to flip 'em or something but these turned out to be waaay too cool. Germany or Austria for sure and my estimate would be 1950's, judging by, well, everything. Leather is very stiff and very thick and I know it's not really possible to tell but I'm fairly certain we're talking horsehide here.
Fully lined in cotton drill. They fit me perfectly, too, which is always a good bonus when buying something very old like this.
In any case, I know there isn't much interest in leather pants but I don't suppose a few photos of such a nice, proper vintage piece of outerwear will hurt the thread (too much).

Excellent!
Just pulled the trigger on an Aero Shackleton from their stock pages for similar reasons, discount code and VAT removed. Now all I have to do is add the Irish VAT, customs duty and admin charges for the privilege of importing a jacket. Still looking forward to receiving it. Good luck with your jacket.

I just took a gamble on this brand new old stock Codet Northland wool jacket.
The seller made me an offer I couldn't refuse at $47 shipped.
I'm not sure about their recent quality but I know they once had a reputation for great wool outerwear.
I'll see when I get it, I wanted something lighter weight and this 65% blend ( not great I know) I believe is going to be a 17oz.
At least their current Big Bill jackets in the 65% blend are listed as 17oz, this should be great for cool mornings on mid- late September 70°f-80°f days.
