Aero Jacket Arrival

New brown Aero FQHH Bootlegger arrived today.
Ordered January 16.
Good fit from Aero.
Pics forthcoming...as soon as Hoosier rain stops.
I am very pleased with the cut and pattern of this Bootlegger....plus the new brass "Aero" stamped zip is much smoother than the previous Talon. The brown HH is a little darker(richer) than my older Highwayman.
Now..to break it in!

Will you be using the Hoosier rain to your advantage for the "break in"?

Congrats!

Thanks bseal!
Hoosier rain...er no thanks on that....not too keen about walking in the rain...or riding the Harley in the rain(on purpose). Just not that hardcore..I reckon! My luck..if I'd lay it outside in the rain...Hoosier starlings would aim a good cluster crap on it. Got one of those plastic spray/mist bottles. Just wet her down real good....put her on...and wear her around the house untill she dries out(the jacket that is....). After several good soaking spray downs..she molds to the body(jacket that is...)..softens up real nice...and pretty near good to go. Wearing it till dry is the key for me.

So you like my new Sony telephoto lens, Van? :cool:

... and are you still suffering the Hoosier rain? We would be just as happy with indoor shots. :p

Van,
Another beauty. Horsehide seems to hate to hug the waist, it's stiffness leaves that gap.

...er...prob... my slightly over indulgence of good ole beer doesn't help....John Lever.

By far the best Aero you own: I am referring to the cut, color, style, and how it all comes together to match your personality. Excellent!

Thanks for posting the pictures, Van .... it's been a while since we've seen you standing in the garden, wearing a new Aero. :)

It looks like it will break in well, and the colour is great.

Say what you will, I still think it would look better if you wore it without the sales brochure attached :lol:
