Aero "Blue Label" 18 Apr 2013

  Over the coming months another range of jackets will become available through the sale page under 'The Blue Label'. These jackets are constructed from a large array of part made jackets, part cut jackets, odd hides, abandoned projects and cutting errors left behind by the previous team of cutters which have just been found during a much needed re-organisation of our leather stockroom. We've started piecing together jackets from the left over stock, as it's a ... (more)

News on our Sheepskin Deliveries 08 Feb 2013

We must apologise for the totally unacceptable delay in delivering sheepskin flying jackets this Winter, sadly the team running Aero from 2004 to last Autumn had been giving very unrealistic delivery dates considering the size of our order book and added to this, we feel the quality of sheepskin we've inherited when we resumed the running of Aero is way below Aero standard. Our first priority is to provide a garment that merits the Aero label ... (more)

Mis-Sold Steerhide/Horsehide Jackets (Mid 2010-Sept 2012) 04 Dec 2012

In September 2012 the original founders of Aero (Ken and Lydia Calder) returned to the company, replacing the management team which had been in place since 2004 - none of whom are any longer employed by Aero. Aero is now, once again, being run in the way it was run from 1981 to 2004. During November 2012 it came to our attention that the previous management of Aero Leather have been responsible for the mis-selling of some ... (more)

A Message From Our Founder 29 Nov 2012

First of all I have to apologise that Aero Leather Clothing has inconvenienced many customers all over the world due to serious delays in fulfilling outstanding orders, especially in the busy Christmas period. Former Managing Director left Aero Leather Clothing Ltd at end of September together with some staff from the factory. They left behind a huge mess, a badly disorganized office and a huge backlog of outstanding orders. As a founder and the major shareholder ... (more)
