I really like the brown horn buttons against the black HH.

Aero Maxwell--

Carrie - what size buttons are on this jacket?

They're one inch in diameter.

Here's the new Aero Two-Tone J106--

Is that the "King of the Road"?

It's the Aero Two-Tone J106, which is a lot like the Aero Two-Tone King of the Road. Both are beautiful jackets. Our customers order the Aero J106 a lot more than the Aero King of the Road because the J106 has a striking resemblance to the original Buco J-24s of the 1950s. Opening up a J106 is like opening up an original Buco J-24, but with far nicer leather...it's "1950s-in-a-box!"

Damn that's a nice jacket! Would love to see how the colors look in the daylight (outside) if you ever get the chance...

I've been so busy that I've been neglecting the Aero shipment array shots and I've been catching heck for it... ...LOL...

This shipment went out this past Monday... I'll put up another Aero array as soon as I get the chance...

Also, I wanted to post up a photo of the Vanson Thunderbird, as it's a great classic "rockers" jacket and has been a popular seller for this coming Fall...

Another happy customer! Awesome 1960s cafe' racer!

 

[Carrie @ Thurston Bros.]

Insurrection/Thurston Bros. has only 4 September Aero production slots left available for North American customers...beat the Fall rush and get your custom Aero flight, Aero utility, or Aero motorcycle jacket by late September/early October!

1. What's the jacket Ken is wearing in the main photo? The cut and color are gorgeous.
2. Ninety-nine percent of the world's population will never, EVER approach Ken Calder's level of cool.

Looks like a long half belt to me but I wonder too about the colour. Photoshop wizardry brown? Gorgeous indeed (the jacket, I'm sure Ken's fine but my inclinations swing a different way), perfect drape and fit.

A Shackleton under a FQHH jacket? Man, that's battle armor!

Battle armor to fend off mediocrity!

On a side note, I am so impressed with the Japanese obsession in everything GOOD. Leather jackets, militaria, baseball, (The Ventures lol).

The jacket is an Aero Long Half Belt (like most thought) from the 1980s. The jacket was made from Horween Brown C/X Horsehide and is very faded from the sun, as the previous owner was a landscape gardener. Without doubt, the jacket had certainly spent most of its life outdoors! The jacket sold shortly after the photos were taken...lucky buyer of a second-hand Aero!

Oops...might be Lightning...
