    Aero to make jackets for new Hollywood WW2 Film, "The Monuments Men"

    Scott, really good to see you back here! I missed you here and on VLJ and always enjoy reading your posts. Sorry to see this thread degenerate into name calling, etc. I am on here and VLJ every day and enjoy both forums immensely. I have learned a lot from the folks on here and over there over...

    ELC Pearl Harbor Time Worn A2 fit

    This has always been my problem with ELC A-2 jackets as well. The knits are weak and seem stretched out, even with the new ELC Monarch I purchased from HPA. My Aero was much better with tighter knits. My ELC A-2's seemed to be like an open ended tube in the torso and just didn't fit right. I...

    Vintage (Nutria) Borsalino 7 1/4

    I can attest to Bond being a stand-up guy and have had nothing but impeccable, numerous dealings with him. Hats always as described, if not better. Great communication. Ships quickly. A credit to the group here IMO.

    Collar Stands on A-2s What do they do?

    Our old friend Douglas MacArthur. He did have a way with military attire. Notice he signed the photo to Admiral Chester Nimitz.

    World's Most Expensive A-2 Jacket Ever

    MacArthur was truly a larger than life character and you can damn well be sure he wore whatever he wanted. Brilliant with an incredible ego and a showman to boot. He and Patton were alike in many ways. While Patton was limited to North Africa and the ETO, MacArthur had an entire hemishphere to...

    Leatherique on FQHH - experience?

    I have been using the Leatherique products for several years. I began using it for my car's leather seats approx. every six months. It works well on FQHH without being a greasy product like some others. 1) has anyone used them before, and what has been their experience? Were the results...

    My new Aero A2-38-1711-P in FQHH - 2nd (and final) try.

    Beautiful jacket,and the fit is perfect for you. The FQHH is gorgeous, almost too perfect for an A-2. It will look fantastic once it breaks in.

    Goodwear A-2 vs. Californian Ventura

    Joel, just checked the 27752 against the Dubow and they are both more generous around the mid-section, and are very similar to each other. I have a Cable Rain Coat 42-10008-P in a size 46 in the new goat from John, and this is indeed a slimmer pattern than the other two. Might be something to...

    Goodwear A-2 vs. Californian Ventura

    Hey Joel, I bought the Dubow from you and am loving it! I also own the RW 27752 in Horween Mustang HH that Weasel Loader used to own. As you know, the Dubow is a size 48, and the RW is a 46, but they are very similar in the room around the waist. I would have suggested the Werber as being a...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    Good news to report! I have received my full refund from paypal yesterday. I filed my claim and dispute on March 27. My payment to Mark was within the 45 day period for buyer protection, so I knew it was just a matter of time to get a refund. Some interesting details from the email from paypal...
