    Aero web site

    I think from a design & functionality standpoint the site is fine, but I agree with the above statements that you may want to suggest to Aero to supply you with a larger/better catalog of photos for the various jackets. Clicking the 'news' link along the top of the page produces a page not...

    New Good Wear "Arcadia" pics

    I just looked on the Good Wear site, and did not see any listing of the 'Arcadia' -- only various A-2's and G-1's... am I looking in the wrong place, or is it not available online?

    My first AERO (1930s Halfbelt) is on the way!!!

    Ooooh... I am very envious of you! I ordered mine October 27th and we just had a nice snow I could have worn it in. The good news for everyone is they are making good time :eusa_clap

    Scuffing of leather; vintage-weight vs. modern leather

    I was issued a G-2 back in the early 80's (horsehide), and never did anything other than wear it under the worst conditions (rain, snow, heavy work, etc.), I also was issued an A-2 in the 90's which was goatskin -- wore the heck out of that jacket as well. My feeling is that the G-2 HH always...

    Critique my next Aero order - LHB.

    I am 5'8" (172cm) and Aero suggested the recommended regular half-belt jacket for me would be about 25" back length for my height. So I suspect the long half-belt length in my case would be 28 - 28.5 inches (if adding 6.5-7.5cm). So, if you account for our height differences (3 inches) and...

    Just placed my order for an Aero Half Belt Deluxe

    That's good to hear. I bought a customized Wested Indy jacket, and the body was a bit too short (due to a misjudgment on my part) and I just sucked it up... never even bothered to get it redone since the jacket was so inexpensive (beautiful jacket though). I do intend to get the perfect Aero...

    Did they charge you for the resize, or did you only pay for shipping?

    Aged Tan Cafe Racer is here

    That is a sweet jacket! It would be nice to see it after a couple years after a couple years of hard wear.

    Just placed my order for an Aero Half Belt Deluxe

    I have been talking with Amanda, who has been awesome answering the questions I've had. I did not ask for a delivery time because the website said to expect 10 - 12 weeks.... no problem as I expect this jacket to replace my A-2 which has lasted me about 15 years ;)

    Just placed my order for an Aero Half Belt Deluxe

    Yep, I did it! I ordered an Aero Half Belt Deluxe in Vintage black FQHH, and decided to go with sloping chest pockets on both left and right, and button cuffs! This is based on a vintage jacket I saw a few years ago. Sadly, I do have to wait to have it made and delivered, but I will...

    Custom Aero Hybrid- Bootlegger/Halfbelt

    Are you certain the sleeves are 35 inches? I'm 5'8" and wear about 24-25 inch sleeves... Thanks :)

    Aero Bootlegger Size 44" chest

    That is a very pretty jacket, indeed. Just curious, do you have any pictures of wearing it unzippered?

    Wanted: Aero black half-belt, size 44

    I have been seriously considering purchasing a new Aero Leather Half-Belt Deluxe, or Half-Belt. However, I would prefer to see if someone is interested in selling their old one to me- largely because of cost, but also it would be nice to have it broken in. So, if anyone has a half-belt size...
