As winter begins to draw to a close here in Scotland, the workshop is starting the gradual shift from sheepskins and winter jackets back to our more regular production schedule and at this time of year, we occasionally find ourselves with some extra winter materials in our warehouse.
So just before the season officially ends, we've gathered together a small number of limited runs and special offers for a short end-of-season sheepskin event!
Aero's Chromexcel leather jackets already have a lot of waxes and oils in them, so a new Aero jacket actually doesn't require much care.

Suede has been a popular fashion material since the late 18th century, when Swedish artisans made soft leather gloves known as 'gants de Suède' (gloves of Sweden) from the underside of animal hides. This is where suede got its name. Due to its pliable, soft texture, suede is commonly used for shoes, handbags, furniture...and of course, suede jackets!
In this blog post, we'll look at where suede comes from, how it compares to other types of leather, and what kind of suede jackets we stock here at Aero Clothing.
