    That sounds about right to me, those leathers look the closest to the "TZ" and "Happy Days" jackets as far as I can tell from pictures. I'm pretty sure when I'm ready to order a jacket it'll be one of those two leathers.....Thanks again, good info.

    Thanks again! That helps me quite a bit. I've had the question about what a lot of these jacket makers were using like say back in the 50s and 60s for there leather biker jackets and such. There's a few jackets that I've noticed in films which look to be high quality leather with a lot of...

    It's been awhile since I've looked at and researched many of these makers and jacket leathers, would this horsehide be considered a medium weight and are they available in different weights? Thank you

    Does this Badalassi leather come in different weights ?

    Avirex A-2 help please

    That is something else, selling it to that guy, pretty interesting. I know what you mean about acquiring different jackets, I started the hobby a couple years ago and I have a few, probably 10 at the moment, a few that don't fit and need to sell and many that I really want to hang onto. I'm...

    Avirex A-2 help please

    Nice looking A-2! Do you still have this jacket or have you acquired a different type A-2 since then? I realize that this thread is dated but I just received an Avirex civilian type A-2 leather jacket size M and it fits big, more like a medium large or large but it fits ok with bulky clothes...

    Guide Master by Wolf Outerwear?

    It's a Guidemaster by Wolf of MA. It fits like a small, I can barley get it zipped, I have a 40" chest so I think it would probably fit someone with a 36" or 37", maybe a 38" also. The horsehide is fantastic on this jacket and it's in very good shape for a 40s to 50s era piece, it has a blue...

    My first Aero CXFQHH - fit and a few questions

    I can't seem to get to my camera pictures, I'll have to keep messing with it until I figure it out. Thanks

    My first Aero CXFQHH - fit and a few questions

    Good looking jacket! I tried posting some pics of a jacket but when I try it seems to only take me to certain files, I can't seem to find the camera gallery for some reason. I opened a couple albums, one was screenshots, just to see what would happen but I couldn't get it to click on them to...

    I was going to upload some pics but I haven't figured out how yet, I take it that we can't upload images from our gallery, it won't let me click on any images to upload.

    It'll probably be tomorrow before I can get pics, I cleaned and conditioned the jacket but I'm letting the conditioner soak in good.

    Aero worth the wait? Horsehide shootout; Aero vs. Schott

    Yes I did see something about the hit that they took from this pandemic. Thanks for the info, it's like a merry go round for me, I've looked at Schott, Aero, LW, Simmons Bilt, Johnson Leathers, etc etc and go back around and around. I like different aspects of all of them, trying to decide is a...

    Aero worth the wait? Horsehide shootout; Aero vs. Schott

    I've been looking at their jackets but this jacket only lists it in black, how did you get a different color?

    Guide Master by Wolf Outerwear?

    Yes I remember seeing these pictures awhile back, I almost forgot. The first pics of you wearing it looks like it's squeezing you, those shoulder gussets look like they're stretched to the max, lol, but the horsehide on these Guidemasters feels bulletproof, I really like the leather, that's why...

    Aero worth the wait? Horsehide shootout; Aero vs. Schott

    I really like the looks of this jacket! Is that a removable winter collar? What do you think about the leather, does it seem like high quality? Is the leather fairly thick? I'm gonna have to check these out.

    Thanks, I've been a member for about a year but I haven't posted very much. I'll get some pics of it afterwhile, I am in the process of wiping it down and conditioning it. I hate to get rid of it, it's heavy duty leather, but it's just too small.
