Dang HB, I tried to show the image in other post to no avail. I'll have to figure out how to do it proper.

Click on the Photobucket img link (it will copy)....then come to your FL post. Open new post...right click on post.
Click 'paste'...then there you are.

..link will show...but after you 'post' your new post image will then show up.

It's between these two. Both Canadian, both late 1930s. The white deerskin one is a wreck, but at £10 was irresistible.

White deerskin w/ lilac leather inserts and sidebelt(s).

Nice jackets. I'm curious, what is the deerskin like? Is it soft like lamb or does it wear more like cow, goat or horse?

Here's my new-to-me jacket from Lone Pine. I'm pretty happy with it, even if it is a bit roomy on me. A sweater worn under should fix that.

Anyone else own a Lone Pine product? Their website shows comparable jackets priced at $1099; mine was a bargain though. :)

I don't know about Aero. It just showed up one day and I had to keep it.
Actually I got from Flightjacket.com for Christmas 2 years ago.

I don't know that I can pick out a single favourite from among my leathers, but I do have a lot of affection for my Aero Bootlegger. Cordovan FQHH, with a couple of mods from standard (button cuffs, leather lined; Blair tartan lining; G1 style pocket, both sides; zip on the breast pocket (standard design is without, though I don't know if Aero have sold many like that!); throat latch).

Me too. My all time favorite jacket is now my brown FQHH zip sleeve Bootlegger with alcapa lining..two G1 style inside pockets purchased last year.
Here's a pic when new...

Looks great in brown too... I have a heavily modified plan for a future Bootlegger in mind, when the money comes...

Super looking Bootlegger Edward. Aero's Cordovan FQHH is very attractive. Definitely looks the business. Any colour bleeding from your jacket Edward?

Regards,
coffee

Very occasionally I've had a little dye transfer onto the collar of a light / white shirt, but typically only when I've been wearing the jacket all day and gotten kinda warm in it. Not for a long time now.
