    I ordered and got this "Mariner" directly from Aero Leathers in Scotland. It is Front Quarter Horsehide bought before the mix-up at Aero. It is a regular standard Aero size 42 but quite roomy, more so than the bomber style jackets I have from Aero in size 42 (Bootlegger, Windward). You could...

    Interesting 1940s German biker jacket.

    Bergfreund Motorcycle Jacket I have an almost identical jacket by the same manufacturer - only minute details are different. The lower outside pockets are deep enough to hold a well-stuffed wallet easily. They reach down to the hem of the jacket. I feel the jacket on ebay is way overpriced and...

    Aero lhb project warm lining advice

    Alpaca lining? I wore through the Alpaca lining on my Aero HWM jacket in less than 2 years with about 2 to 3 days use per week. Sent it in for relining and chose the cotton twill.

    Horsehide "bleeding" on shirts worn under the jacket

    I had heavy bleeding on a black HH Aero "Windward". Rubbed it every which way I could, put it out in the sun and rubbed it down with a cloth many times. That took a lot of sting out of the bleeding but not all. Loved the cut of the jacket but hated the bleeding, sold it. Frustrated I bought a...
