This jacket was made back in 2006, and is one of the first ten jackets that we had built. That was a time when knowledge
of jacket construction was in development stage, and it shows in this jacket. We had much to learn. But, it's a fun
jacket, and has great cowhide leather and a WWII Talon zipper.
This pattern is based on an original Aero that we copied at the time. The cowhide is comfortable, while having superb
grain and texture. The color is a reddish russet, while the knits are a seal brown shade. The thread is a poly-core
with cotton surface, and the cotton lining is solid with no issues. This jacket was given to a relative, who had it for
several years, but wears another Good Wear on a regular basis, so this one has about a month of use in it.
The jacket isn't perfect, and the stitching has some areas of mis-alignment, but the jacket is rock solid, and has held
together just fine for almost a decade. The knits have a couple small snags, but nothing that would requite any attention.
The WWII Talon, was a pre-used unit, and is just fine in condition.
The price reflects the value of the jacket—not our highest level of quality, but a very early example of how we learned the trade.
Please let us know your dimensions (height, weight, and chest circumference), and we will know how well this
one should fit.
