I keep trimming my collection and this the most regretful one I’m going to sell, as this is only 8 months old and a custom order that I think it’s amazing.

Lightly broken in Aero Sheene in mighty Black CXL FQHH (with brown tea-core shades coming through, I requested it specifically to Aero).

It's an awesome jacket that I really love but I recently got another black jacket from another member, that looks very similar but fits me better, as I’ve lost a bit of weight in the last few months, so I can't afford having two jackets that look essentially the same.

Details of the jacket as per my order with Aero:

- Cafe Racer “Sheene”, size 38.

- Made by Julie Leitch in May 2017.

- Black chrome-excel front quarter horsehide, that will fade to brown with wear and patina. “Tea Core" style.

- Three outside pockets, two hand warmers, one chest pocket on the left.

- One inside pocket extra, left side, with stud closure.

- Moleskin lined pockets.

- Antique brass Talon zippers with brown tape.

- Chest pocket zipper with ball and chain pull.

- No zippers on the hand warmer pockets.

- Highwayman style dress collar.

- No outside kidney panel.

- No shoulder gussets, single back pointed yoke instead.

- Black cotton drill lining in body and sleeves lining.

- Brown contrast stitching.

- Black corduroy hem in the lining for reinforcement.

- Current Aero label of the plane, car and motorbike.

Measurements:

Shoulders: 18.5 inches.

Chest: 21 inches pit to pit.

Sleeves: 25.5
(Aero measurements style,
straight from shoulder to end sleeve, not around the curve).

Back: 25.5 inches from end collar to bottom.

PayPal: USD$750 shipped worldwide.

More pics on request if needed.

Thanks for looking.

The other jacket that makes you want to sell this must be damn fine!

It certainly is and you know that jacket very well! [emoji6]
The fit of the PHB is just better on me and the Vincenza leather more practical in the climate of South Australia.
I love this Sheene though, and actually prefer the CXFQHH leather to Vincenza, but it’s just too much for where I live.

Damn, just a touch too tight for me. I have room in my line up for a black collared jacket since one of mine seems to have gone missing [emoji6]

[emoji23][emoji23] There’s always room for a nice jacket at a good price!

Man I hope my inbound CR fits half this good. That's a bad ass jacket!

That is some serious badassery right there Fonz. I just took possession of a Sonoma racer in the same leather or I would take this off your hands.

Somehow, every jacket you buy seems to be a perfect fit on you do I doubt the next one will be different.
I’m already having sellers remorse but I have to be consistent with my minimalist kick, much as I like the jacket.

Thanks mate!
Horween’s CXL FQHH leather is a very special hide, my favourite in fact of all the ones I’ve handled, but unfortunately it’s not so suited to my climate.
Better let someone else enjoy this tank of a jacket. Very close to bulletproof.
