    Blimey, who'd have thought buying a jacket would be so stressful, plenty for Robbie79 to think about there. I really do hope you get what you want, thats what YOU want.

    Simmons Bilt Shinki Hikaku Horsehide

    Hi, I have an Aero and a Simmons Bilt, quality wise, fit wise and service wise I can't split them, both superb. The stuff thats gone on in the past, well thats for you to decide if its a problem for you I guess, personally I think its time to move on.

    Aero Cossack or 30's HB?

    Hi, i recently got a cossack, and i love it, by far the best aero ive had in terms of style and fit.
