    Help deciding on new Aero!!!

    Getting ready to order a new custom Aero. I once had a brown FQHH Sheen that I sadly outgrew. Ideally I’d love to get a college jacket and a Majestic in the new chocolate suede, but two jackets aren’t in the cards just yet. I think I’m gonna start out with a college jacket, but I’m just not...

    5.11 Boots, Opinions Please

    LE for over 10 years and don't particularly care for 5.11 boots. Not terrible, but not what I would consider high quality. More of a disposable shoe. I'm one who spit shines my duty boots, and the leather on 5.11, and many other manufacturers, just don't hold a shine very well. I would look into...

    F/S: Aero Highwayman - size 42, brown FQHH, Excellent Condition!

    I'm selling my Aero Highwayman as my new Sheene just arrived today! I'm the second owner, purchased off eBay in February 2015. The original owner, who is also a fellow lounger, purchased it as a custom order from Thurston Bros. in December 2014. From speaking with the original owner it was a...

    Dan, beautiful jacket. I've got a Sheene on order right now. Mind if I ask size and length? How tall are you? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    AERO Sheene...another Thurston Bros. Success Story!!!

    Thanks for all the input. I'm 6'2" but pretty long legged, so I'm thinking 27" or so should be a good length. My current highwayman is 25.5" and just feels too short, which is why I'm going with the Sheene. I've also got a more athletic build, so I think the Sheene should fit a little better...

    AERO Sheene...another Thurston Bros. Success Story!!!

    Thanks for the tip. I'm not sure on sleeves yet, but like the plain back on yours, think I'm going to forego the kidney pad. No sleeve zips either. Do you have any interior pockets on yours? What is your size, Carrie is sending me a 44 cafe racer fit jacket to try on. Should be here Monday...

    Highwayman length question

    Hello again, time for another question from me . I recently purchased my first highwayman from Sockeye via the bay. Awesome transaction by the way. Love the jacket but am feeling the length is a bit short. I'm 6'2" and the jacket I got has a 25.5" back length. I'm pretty long legged so the back...

    Shorter wool jacket

    Pauleway, that's exactly what I was looking for! Thanks! I will definitely check that out. Mind if I ask what that cost you, and how warm it was (mind you I'm from Minnesota ) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Shorter wool jacket

    Fanch, I've looked at Filson but want something a little shorter. I see Sterlingwear now makes a shorter jacket so that may be what I end up going with. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Shorter wool jacket

    As the title implies I'm looking for a shorter wool jacket. I've got a Schott car coat and vintage pea coat but want something a little shorter, say in the 26-28" range. I've seen tons of mall store offerings but figured someone must know of some quality manufacturers who make these. Basically...

    Custom jacket advice

    I guess the only reason I am going the 'custom' route is so I can choose the leather I really like. If I could find a ready made jacket in the right hide I would be all for it. Thanks for the suggestion on Vanson, I thought they would be out of my price range. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Custom jacket advice

    So life finally settled down and I'm moving forward with getting my first legit custom leather jacket. I've asked questions (and appreciate all the responses) and never moved forward but now have set aside the funds and am going to do it. Aero and some of the other higher end jackets are out due...

    Coronado Leather?

    That's what I was thinking as well. I guess if they stock Horween products they are likely good to go. Just hoping someone here has some experience. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
