Hit the jacket with a mix of Urad + Tenderly to condition and give the leather a bit of a sheen/water resistant finish. Loving this jacket.

I wish Aeros didn't do the neck thing to me otherwise I'd get (and keep) one. Maybe heading to Scotland next year, perhaps if I went to the factory and tried on different styles I could find one that worked for me? Not sure if they offer an in store experience.

They do, at least they did before the Corona, I guess it is possible again.
I was there in 2016. Totally recommended as an experience, make sure to visit the basement where the machinists make the jackets.

Well damn. I am still breaking in the Double Helix Innovator, so same jacket as yesterday :p was going to retire my dedicated riding jacket in lieu of this but I guess not.

I neve know what to wear or what the aesthetic is with the Ducati Diavel... its technically a cruiser, but looks like the cruiser mom had a baby with a streetfighter milkman.

Love this Vanson (on a hanger). It’s unfortunately entirely too small. I did the usual mental gymnastics of trying to convince myself otherwise…but I suspect this will be back in the classifieds in short order. Shame as It’s an absolutely stunning heavy, thick mahogany batch of comp weight

Do some of that magic that @Marc mndt does to get it 1 size bigger :)
Hey, do you get your shirts shortened to wear untucked or you buy them like that already? I'm trying to find some shirts/tees to wear bucket, but apparently the current fashion is long skinny shirts

LOL. I think that’s not possible with this jacket. It’s tagged a 42” but I suspect I’d need a 44” at minimum maybe even a 46”. I’m back up to 210lbs, my weight fluctuates, but this definitely is a small 42”. Shirts I get are j crew, slim untucks.

That's a bummer, this one really looks cool.
