Hey Carrie!

So nice to finally meet you! I'll definitely give you a call soon and would love to get a sample of the turquoise cowhide you offer so I can see if the color meets my requirements (as you know there are many different shades of turquoise). I've been talking to a leather company in Montana about possibly sourcing me some turquoise horsehide... if I'm able to obtain this, is it possible for me to send this hide to you to have your company make me a jacket? How much hide would you need approximately (I'm an Aero jacket size 46 and would send you a non-leather jacket that I'd want "cloned" but in turquoise horsehide leather, or possibly the turquoise cowhide leather if that color works out better for me).

Hi Navin,

As long as the hide and pattern are approved by Aero, it shouldn't be a problem...

Aero really hit it out of the park with this Two-Tone Sunburst! Greg outdid himself with the contrast stitching...and look at that liner!

Damn! That just works so well together. Not usually a fan of the contrast stitching or the two tone but that is an amazing looking jacket.
I've really gotta stop coming to this damn forum.....just when I think I have enough jackets....

carrie could you give us a wider shot front and back please.

The jacket was for a customer who already picked it up...hopefully we'll get a customer photo!

What's the name of that lining on that Sunburst??? Nice.

This was Lochcarron's Minto Check Lightweight Tweed... It's a great liner that is equivalent in weight to Lochcarron's Lightweight Tartans.

Carrie, do you guys have the Thunder Bay yet?

Hi Peacoat,

The Thunderbay is a beautiful jacket! However, we don't stock that model in our shop. For custom Thunderbay orders, we fit customers in Aero's Cafe' Racer because the sizing is very, very close! The shell of the Thunderbay is just a tad larger to accommodate the thicker liner...

If I bought that jacket, I'd need it lined with shearling as I'd be sleeping in the doghouse.

carrie do you mind putting up a wider shot of the sunburst front and back please? so we can see it in its full glory thanks

Hi simonc,

Our customer already picked up the jacket. The color scheme on the Two-Tone Sunburst is pretty much the same as it is on the Two-Tone Dustbowl...hope this helps...!

For the individual who called us this morning about size 42 or 44 Aero Sunbursts (I didn't get your contact info), we have a 42 in Black FQHH in stock! Give us a buzz and we'll get that shipped to you!

So, after payment is received, do you send a test Cafe Racer out to the buyer for fitting? Or is this only done in your shop?

After we receive payment, we ship you out a fit jacket so that you can be sized perfectly! Even though you're all the way across the country, you'll engage in the same fitting process that customers go through when they come directly to our shop!
