Nice...Love em all!!!

I was tempted to get a Vanson or Bates, but opted for an Aero instead due to the fleecing I'd get from customs.... :x

Noticed the tags still on some of them.....You worn them yet?

Body armor! Great stuff. What's M19 signify? I like the horsehide too, but the way the colors have less contrast on the other two is really nice. I think one might out of necessity need to work out to wear these bruts. Very tough.

Aye, they do look heavy.....almost like they're collapsing in under their own gravity...

Very nice jackets. I have been tempted to pick up a Logan's X-3 for awhile now. Maybe one of these days.

If you'll forgive me, Pat, I really don't like the look of those jackets, nor do I like the movies they came from. And I get the idea of heavy bike leather, and respect that, but I prefer the windbreaker, as long as it's a heavy goat. ;) I enjoy leather jackets because they wear better than fabric and you can sponge them clean. It doesn't mean I wanna wear 8 pounds of leather armour when I walk up to the shops. :lol:

I know what you mean, but personally I love thick, heavy, smelly leather.. :lol:...I got some samples from Aero and whilst I loved all of them opted for the HFQHH, mainly due to it's weight...(also because of the smell.. :lol: )

I suppose the UK weather is more suited for a heavier leather...I frequently see brass monkeys requesting welders... :lol:
