Thanks Seb. I think that for a light summer/late spring/early fall jacket roo is just the ticket. I actually contacted Thurston to find out if Aero has some roo hide left. Carrie said no more. I then asked if they could make me a board racer if I supply the hide. Carrie thought it would be quite risky, as the hides are small, and what if they are unsuitable? Oh well. There was one roo Aero floating around FL, maybe the owner will post in this thread?

It's hard to get roo hide in Australia because the hides are all sold off overseas. Schott make an Indy Jones roo jacket - or did until recently - sold as a US Wings jacket. Roos are plenty big enough - an adult male is well over 6 feet tall and built like a lumberjack.

Wearing this today...

Positive you will all recognise it. Stunning jacket! Measurements quoted on Aeros sales page seemed ever so slightly off for me (shoulders a tad narrow, sleeves and body an inch too long) but it could not fit any better.

This is my first post (anywhere...), so apologies if things go shaky.

Thanks for all the wisdom in this forum. Been looking for quite some time now.

Welcome to the lounge Tom. Glad you made it. Very nice entrance with the Aero. It is stunning!!
Look forward to seeing more.
Might it be midnight blue??
