    Eastman BOB Irvin Early.

    I am selling my Eastman BoB size 44. It’s an earlier one from the late nineties or around the turn of the millennium from the view of these who know here. Andrew the go to Irvin man says that these earlier ones are the best ones. Before the broken hide. I bought it a couple of years ago from...

    Connelly Steerhide Aero HWM.

    I have this Aero HWM for sale. I bought it recently for my partner but it doesn't fit her and it won’t fit me unfortunately though I wish it did. It’s a late eighties Connelly Steerhide in a small size. It’s been relined and the size label is missing but it measures like a 36 or 38 I’d say...

    What is the Make or Brand of this Jacket?

    Bought this a couple of weeks ago. I don’t buy many originals now because they are hard to find in good condition in the UK these days. But this one is really quite good for its age and the hide is unmarked. The lining is good synthetic fleece and there are no stains or tears anywhere. The zip...

    Experiences with leather jacket makers.

    There is a thread running now about Aero which was started by someone because the thread where he posted remarks which were contrary to the general opinion was shut down after some abuse.

    Aero HWM in the old oilpull

    Aero Highwayman in midweight old style oilpull HH Size 42. Made for me in late 2009 by Vicki. You can't get this lovely oilpull anymore and the new stuff is more like oiled suede. You can't get Vicki there either and she was one of the best they had. This hide is thicker than the new one and...

    Best Aero linings.

    I'm deciding which lining to choose for my new Aero. I want a warm one having made a mistake a few years ago by opting for cotton drill to make it a three season jacket and finding it too cold in the winter. I have a sheepskin so don't want that and it's a toss up between alpaca and tartan...

    Aero's Horween Heavy Steer.

    Has anyone any experience of Horween's 4oz steer? How stiff, or not, it is when new, and how quickly it softens and ages? I've got a new jacket on order and I'm thinking of having this instead of FQHH. So any experience of it at all. Even if you had a jacket made in it instead of the heavy...
