^my worry was how tall it would look. Being 22 and barely a few years over my sneaker addiction in favor of a better look, it just feels like it would be a dramatic change. I was considering getting the heel lowered by 1/4 only in hopes of it matching my others boots. I think the main problem is...

^ thank you very much for the response! I figured it would be similar in feeling on the foot between those different sole choices. I was mainly asking because I'm a little worried by how tall the heel looks in person. My thought is to get a single leather midsole with the rubber half soles with...

these look incredible! quick question gd1944, since it looks like you get to deal with several different configurations for the whites: Do you feel that this leather is ideal to have without lining? or would lining it make it feel more "substantial"? Also, if you have handled some pairs with...

^great! thanks a lot, can't wait to see them Also, if you could by chance measure the height of the normal cuban heel on your pair? It is the exact configuration I want with the half soles

univibe88, I was wondering if you could update us on how your white's are coming along! I've haven't seen much info on how water buffalo ages, and I was curious to see what you thought about the leather considering that I hear it is trimmed pretty thin. Also, if you or anyone else could...

univibe88 those look amazing! great shots as well, exactly what I was hoping for! thanks a lot, looks like my order will be going in within the next week!

^agreed! thank you so much univibe88! Can't wait to place my order either!

is there any chance anyone can provide fit pictures of their white's semi dress? preferably the ones with the standard cuban heel. I am really interested in getting a pair but I never really seem to see many while worn

Would anyone happen to have any info on cordovan heavy steerhide? That sounds like an interesting option

I must say, I can't really get over the better color of the regular cordovan. the vintage seems a little too washed out for me

The jacket I was thinking of having made is one of their a-2's but what with the bottom ribbing and lining, would the fact that it doesnt really get in contact with any of my clothes underneath except maybe at the top most collar, that they will be protected from color bleeding on to them...

Thanks Rudie, looks like it's a size 44 for me, since the pit to pit was actually around 23in. Can't wait to get it!

Philalethes, thanks a lot for that, looks like i will be going for the regular cordovan color! now to just figure out sizing. Would anyone have a recommendation for a size 46.5in chest? most of my jackets are around 23.5in pit to pit. I'm around 5'9" 209lbs (I'm a bit of a body builder)

Thanks a lot, hopefully someone has some pictures of the vintage cordovan, as I have yet to see that, let alone a worn progress picture of it.

I'm looking to buy my first aero leather jacket, but I'm unsure about which version of cordovan to choose, regular fqhh or the vintage fqhh. I have looked at aeros website as well as Mark's picturetrail and can honestly not tell the difference. Would anyone with experience please chime in, with...
