I've got a 30's half belt that I absolutely love. When I ordered it Insurrection suggested I get corduroy lining on the interior of the waist to avoid "belt rash"--your belt causing scrapes in the leather. It occurred to me that if you drive regularly in your jacket, a seatbelt could do the...
Not sure where I first heard it, but I was definitely under the impression that the soaking and drying could dry and crack the leather. Thrilled to hear that's not the case with my jacket. The whole reason I got it was to wear it rain or shine.
I just got my first Aero jacket--a brown FQHH half belt. It's unbelievable. A lot of people have recommended breaking it in by getting it very wet, either in the rain or otherwise. Before I got into the Aero world, I was under the impression that you were not supposed to wear leather in the...
I just got an Aero half belt in brown FQHH with green OD stitching. It looks amazing and I love the stitching. But it's also worth pointing out that it's incredibly subtle. In certain lights you can't even tell there's a contrast. It's the kind of thing that adds to the jacket, but you...
Thanks very much! And very good eye on the boots. They are indeed Wolverines, though not Addisons. They are 721s, which are a shell cordovan version they came out with a couple years ago. They look great with the jacket!

Yeah, I really can't say enough about Insurrection. They did such a good job with the jacket, and they are such nice people. Couldn't be more pleased with them.
By the way, would love to hear your break-in tips if anyone has any. I've been wearing the jacket pretty much nonstop since I got it (despite the weather not being cold enough to support that choice). It's softened a bit, but I feel like it's going to take months of wear to actually get...
Yep, this is a 38 from Insurrection. I was pretty concerned about the fit when I was ordering, but I gave Wade my height and a couple measurements and he just said, "Yeah, I know exactly how to fit it for you. Don't worry." The fit couldn't have come out better.
