    FS: 42 AERO LEATHER CAFE RACER 4 PKT BLK CRHOMEXCEL HORSEHIDE

    Absolutely agree! CXL FQHH is all about creases & folds. And unless folded when wet, any 'wrong looking' folds will even out pretty quickly with wear

    Field Leathers

    I have the full aniline and 2 jackets in his teacore, and the teacore shinki is by far my favorite leather. Even better than my original love - mid weight CXL. I am not sure how the teacore will stand the test of elements though - I hardly expose my jacket to water. The teacore has been great...

    Rare Schott Horween 628US 42(23 P2P)

    Hi, no alteration has been done. Sleeve length is not short on wearing. Sharing a fit picture, I usually wear jackets with 25 inch sleeves

    Rare Schott Horween 628US 42(23 P2P)

    Extremely rare, especially in this size. Purchased from the lounge, and this jacket is very close to D pocket perfection for me (other than the back length) Hence reluctantly stuck with it hoping that the back length will grow on me. Unfortunately after getting the FL cross zip in black...

    New Aero Speedway in Horween CXL FQHH P2P 23

    Speedway in CXL FQHH is a rare combination. Aero usually doesn't offer CXL option for the Speedway (they offer relatively lighter weight leathers). Made by July Leitch in 'thinner' and much more pliable CXL FQHH(also looks to be fading faster than my previous experience with CXL - most likely...

    One Leather Jacket to keep rest of your life?

    I am far from a single jacket myself, but if forced to part with my other leather jackets, the Fields Leather Car Coat in pigment Shinki would be the one I'd retain Not a great picture but this is the jacket I grab more than anything else in my wardrobe

    2023 Schott x Horween collab P677

    My experience with CXL steerhide has been that it breaks in much faster & gets really pliable compared to horsehide which needs a lot of time and effort to break in. And I really appreciate this feature of the steerhide. But at the same time, I have found the steerhide to be heavier and thicker...

    2023 Schott x Horween collab P677

    https://www.schottnyc.com/products/chrome-excel-steerhide-mc-jacket-with-full-removable-belt.htm?color=6&catID=21 Looks to be the sole CXL effort by Schott this year. Color looks fantastic, and the removable belt is a good feature to have. But the price and split back are bummers Personally...

    Aero Jacket Sizing Help

    I would suggest instead of Seven go for the 1930s HB(not premier) or the Speedway. They are comfortable and not too boxy like the HWM, but definitely not as slim as the premier patters A size 42 1930s HB may work very well for you with some scope of layering. I have started accounting for the...

    Horse vs Steer vs Goat Premium Half Belt

    My favourites in CXL fqhh are black & their signature natural I just received 2 jackets ordered last month. One in thinner cxl, the other in 'normal' weight. The drape of the thinner cxl is dreamy - similar to lambskin but also more significant. Absolutely no break in required The normal...

    Aero has a new leather called Pinnacle

    I think he is asking whether it is teacore(pigment finished) like cxl or dyed through (aniline) I myself am not sure. Probably @Hide'n'seek can reclarify

    Horse vs Steer vs Goat Premium Half Belt

    I believe most agree CXL horsehide is beautiful, although the normal weight can get a bit cumbersome & stiff If you are looking at a black jacket, I would suggest ask Holly for the lighter weight CXFQHH. It is a great combination of CXL's beauty & is very comfortable, drapes extremely well
