Wow, that's a seriously nice jacket. I have a new Cossack and that one is making me think I ordered the wrong jacket. Personally, i would break it in naturally with good hard wear.
Hungarian Army WWI
This is some unknown distant relative.
Does anyone speak Hungarian? Please translate the writing on the pic.
The style cap surely predates WWI Germany
Thanks
Does anyone have an Aero Jacket in Steerhide? I'm wondering how it compares to Aero's horsehide. I'm thinking of of getting an Aero Mariner and based on previous posts Steerhide might be more correct for that coat. In photos the Steerhide seems to have more of a matte finish which I like. Any...
Buy used. There is a huge market in used high end watches. If you really want a cartier watch you probably won't be happy with a lesser brand. Otherwise, there are plenty of "tank' style watches at all price points.
Try the website Timezone .com and go to their Sales Corner. I'm sure you will...
Gentlemen Travelers
I just got a pair of Gentlemen Travelers and put them one for the first time. The pair I have is made fine having no glaring flaws. They are a little narrow at the arch, but i like the fit because they feel like there will give good arch support. Also, they seem to be a...
Here's a pic I came across when reviewing old files on my Computer.

Is there a reason that pigskin is not used for Leather garments? I have seen jackets in pig suede but pig leather does not seem to be used. Whats the reason? Just one of the weird thoughts that go trough my mind.

Pics with jacket on
I about 5'5" and 160lbs. The jacket is a 42 with the sleeves and hem shortened. I think the jacket fits perfectly in the shoulders and chest. Some may think the jacket is a little long, but I wanted it that way. I did not want a short cropped looking jacket. I think the...
Here are some pics
I don't think the pics do the color justice. Also, the grain is really apparent in the close ups.
I ordered the jacket in the standard Brown FQHH and asked that the darkest hide available be used. The transaction with Mark at Aero USA was flawless.
