Quick fit pics. Received my Aero Premier HWM in tumbled cordovan cxl w/ olive stitching. It's a dark shade of burgundy with plenty of grain. This will be a layering jacket so it has a little room for a thick sweater or so. (I do not like the hookless zipper here, it's annoying to remove)

Hope the back will relax soon as it looks odd lol

I think of this jacket as kind of over-the-top for my personal style, but still find wearing it easier than the sunglasses. Any eye wear advice from those who partake?

Bates. The quilted lining makes it my warmest leather jacket.

Thank you, it's not as playful as the blue green cxl you have but I'll gladly take it. Now I know why cxl cordovan is so nice. It's really rich in color and I think it's richer than my brown cxl. I think I'm getting it, I applied some lip gloss to the zipper teeth and I'm practicing how to undo it.

Seating the pin at the start is the key. Just be sure to push the pin all the way into the zipper box every time you zip it. It’ll be solid as steel if you do that!

Thanks. It's the same way with the hardware on the mulholland but maybe since it is so new it still giving me some feeling it out phase lol

it's the removing part that I find tricky because the seam on the waist band is so thick that it catches on the pull and I can't bring the pull all the way down properly

I have a feeling it will, I don't have a lot of faith in the pull. That's so true, I'm sure they've fixed a few of these before. Thank you

lol I read what happened with yours and I hope that doesn't happen to me anytime soon

'57 Heavy Leather trucker today for a COVID lockdown "allowed" trip for "exercise" to the coast.
Coffee and an Italian pastry more like ! just to get some fresh air out of the house.
We are on a state wide 5 day hard lockdown due to ONE Corona virus case in the community. The "UK" mutant.
You can't go more than 5 K's from home unless to an "essential occupation", facemasks COMPULSORY outdoors !
SO we went 5.8 K's , that would be the "non conformist" in me haha...
Quiet beaches indeed , although it is a bit "cooler" at 14C minimum 24C max today, jacket weather in the breeze.

Thanks! I am the second owner of this jacket, so the break in was mostly done by my friend who traded this jacket to me. I can't take any credit, really.

Thank you. I really enjoy wearing this jacket. The leather gets richer with each wear.

Yes. I purchased this jacket from Carrie at Thurston Bros last December.
