    First post - looking for advice for a "do it all" jacket (Aero Premier Highwayman - Belmondo style)

    I have 2 PHWM both in vicenza. They are on here somewhere. Never tried a CXL jacket but based on the vicenza which is a lighter weight, I’d worry the CXL will be too heavy. I find the PHWM hangs a bit heavy on the neck anyway. Just my 2c.

    TFL Wallet

    Great looking wallet. Love that navy leather. Be interesting to hear from other FTP members that are into leatherworking. I took it up this year. Maybe of interest here I made this wallet from Horween Mustang leather. There’s some posts around about a jacket made from this leather and it...

    Aero slimfit motorcycle jacket aka Ridley

    Wow. That is fast wearing. I have a PHWM in blackened brown and after a winter of wear it only has the tiniest spots of brown on the cuff edges and some high seams. Nothing like yours. I guess some hides wear faster? Or Aero changed the top coat to wear faster?

    My new MF Campus Stallion jacket

    I think for this style this size looks spot on. I like it with a slightly more relaxed fit as you have. You’re not wearing skinny jeans and a tight jacket wouldn’t go in my personal opinion. Great jacket. Love it.

    Colour looks great.

    Aero Premier HWM Fit Feedback

    I actually did a similar thing to you and kept a blackened brown PHWM fit jacket and then rolled straight into ordering a russet Vicenza PHWM with a couple of different details (collar the most noteworthy). There’s a post on here somewhere with photos of them both. I really like the look and fit...

    Aero Premier HWM Fit Feedback

    The fit looks great. I found the collar on my PHWM was similarly uncomfortable at first. I sprayed it with some water and rounded the opening around my neck a bit and let it dry out while wearing it and it improved the comfort a lot. Assume this would probably happen in time with wear anyway but...

    Well...it finally happened!

    There’s some really good food diary apps out that will give you a energy intake goal and track what you’re eating (as long as you tell it the truth ). I’ve lost about 5kg of isolation weight that way. Makes you a little more conscious of what you’re eating. And yeah as others have said cutting...

    Schott permanently closes Chicago location

    Yeah mate I take your point. Was definitely not suggesting anyone here would fit into that group. Your jackets are all far too nice for one thing. I’d own a nice European sports car if I could afford it but I’d hope thanks to this forum I’d have a nice jacket to go with it. I used a stereotype...

    Aero Wayfarer, Raw Horsehide - Pic Heavy

    Wow. That’s an amazing colour. Beautiful.

    Very true

    Schott permanently closes Chicago location

    Totally agree which is why I bought a brown and a black at the same time. Felt I couldn’t get a brown until I owned a black jacket.

    Schott permanently closes Chicago location

    I’ll try and be more clear in what I was trying to say. I have nothing against black leather jackets and think people of any age look great in black leather jackets. Some of the best looking jackets I’ve seen on TFL are black. I own a black Aero myself and love it. I guess I just feel like...

    Schott permanently closes Chicago location

    I’m sure it is. Purely my insecurity.

    In what way?

    Schott permanently closes Chicago location

    More interesting thread than the title suggested. As far as the increased price vs quality of Schott, we’ve seen a similar thing happen in Australia with RM Williams. As companies move to use their good reputation to increase sales and spread to be a more internationally recognized brand they...

    Fivestar Waldo Pepper Jacket

    These both look great. I like your custom one slightly better but that mostly because of the dark seal colour I think.
