    Aero Roughout Jerky Horsehide Type III, Size 42: "The Roughneck Brawler"

    You let the man dream!! It is a serious point though, how movie stars, or marketised images (Elvis in his GI get up) have a huge influence on how we view the past.

    Bump. Just in case anyone with any photos to share missed this.

    Share your Cream Vincenza Jacket photos

    Hi all, I was trying to scour the forums recently for good pictures of jackets in the cream vincenza horsehide that Aero used to offer (they may still do on request). I'm keen to see how this colour wears overtime, including what it might look like when it has picked up a few bumps, scrapes...

    Aero Roughout Jerky Horsehide Type III, Size 42: "The Roughneck Brawler"

    They will definitely make you a longer jacket but I imagine would be uncomfortable to do so in this model which traditionally is a shorter length. Are there any other Aero models you like which you would consider ordering in the roughout? Also, Aero have certainly produced chest pockets, at...

    Frustrated at Aero prices increases

    Check the country flag in top right corner of the page as per Hide n Seek's post above.

    -15% at Aero, but only this week.

    That price jump is likely the country settings on the website. Exclusive of VAT in the first screenshot, inclusive in the second. If you are outside of UK you should be good to purchase at the first price.

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    I just want to stress that i was not suggesting anything underhand! Thank you for the explanation and I fully accept that however you did things there was an impact you had to consider.

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    Thank you @Hide'n'seek for taking the time to give such a full explnantion. I hope you did not think many of the comments above implied greed on your part - we are all conscious of significant cost pressures over recent times, including some that are industry specific, and you've obviously...

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    Most likely it is because the criteria for retaining evidence of export, how long you have to keep it for, and how you account for this sale in order to zero rate goods for VAT in the UK is a bit onerous. As you say, hats off to Aero for putting the effort in for their customers here

    1929? Woman’s Western Cossack Jacket “the Jacket Shop” 20s 30s

    Indeed. A girl's gotta be able to reach her matches!

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    For sure no-one wants them to go under. (Prior to this uplift their prices had probably gone up around 20% across the previous two years, again like many other places). I just think they missed the mark here. They sent an email round about the sale, thanking loyal customers for their support...

    -15% at Aero, but only this week.

    Agree. I'm shocked by the size of the increases. Also, these days many smaller companies (of which I would class Aero as one although clearly there are smaller operations still) inform their customers of such price increases in advance. This was noticeably absent from their email circular...

    -15% at Aero, but only this week.

    The Shackleton waistcoat is now 540 gbp. I think that is a 50% increase from where it was before! (360 gbp I think).
