    Aero Vicenza HH Bootlegger

    I recently sold off an Aero Maxwell I thought would do forever…but, no. Too small in the shoulders, and when Celsius headed for the basement, I couldn’t wear even a light sweater under it. That has been the most persistent problem: trouble fitting the shoulders. Then, (as if you’d no idea where...

    FS: Aero Maxwell FQHH, Black, 42

    SOLD Aero FQHH Maxwell, 42, black. I bought this jacket about one and a half years ago. There is a pic of me modeling its twin brother at Insurrection Leathers when they still had a storefront. I’ve worn it only a little (12-15 times), the chief reason is seen in the shoulder-to-shoulder pic...

    Buttonholes on some men's shirts...

    The buttonholes on men's shirts are oriented vertically, all but the last one, the bottom one, which is often oriented horizontally. Why? Please and thank you.

    New Aero Maxwell

    It has taken me a couple of weeks to get some pics of this new jacket, but, here you go. No breast pocket, Californian-style buckle strap cuffs, one inside map pocket, fairly standard tartan lining; the basic Maxwell in mid-weight black HH from Aero. Insurrection, i.e., Carrie helped get the...

    Did one our lot buy this jacket?

    If so, I'd like to see some pics of it worn, please. http://aeroleatherclothing.com/product-detail.php?id=1615 I almost tumbled for this one, but, the color 'cherry' put me off just enough to keep me from buying it. Really fine jacket, though.

    F/S AERO Highwayman, Size 42, black steerhide.

    Heavy, but not stiff; mid-weight steerhide. A generous size 42, would probably fit a slim 44. I bought this jacket direct from AERO. It was, according to their online description, a sales model, sent out to prospective customers in Europe to try on for fit. I’ve worn it perhaps five times in...

    Superior Flight Apparel 30's half-belt

    Last Spring, Mark, aka 'fishmeok' of Superior Flight Apparel posted some pics of an M1941 field jacket. I emailed him with an idea for ‘translating’ the jacket into leather. Over the course of the last several months, Mark and I worked out the pattern and the details for the jacket shown...

    Best-fitting t-shirt necks?

    When I was a teen-ager back in the Paleozoic, the best-fitting, i.e., non-sagging t-shirts were Penny's Towncraft. Long since gone. Any thoughts on t-shirts with a close-fitting neck that don't sag like a hound's jowls after a few washes? Gibbs on NCIS has great t-shirts, by way of a reference.

    1,000 Mile Boots

    I started reading about these boots last Summer. Over Christmas, I found them at Nordstrom's, $325. As a reference for fit, I tried and could not wear RW Gentleman Travelers on my shoebox-shaped foot--too narrow. But, a 10D in the 1,000 Mile boot felt immediately comfortable. These are a...

    FS: Vintage B. Trask Bison chukkha boots

    I purchased these fourteen years ago. They have not been worn for about seven years, sitting in my closet. I had them completely rebuilt about six months ago, with Cat's Paw soles and heels and a completely new inner sole of leather at a cost of more than $100. Sadly, the rebuild squeezed the...
