"I received the package yesterday. I've been busy at work and missed the delivery last Thursday. I end up picking the package in a UPS store during working hours but I can't wait, so I open the box at the office. Just to peek at the color at first, but decided to try it in the restroom. It is gorgeous, everything we decided on works together. Love the lining, and the fit, it's like a glove. It's perfect. I will enjoy the jacket, showing it off to my friends.

Style: Aero Board Racer
Leather: Black Badalassi
"Had to write - the jacket came a day early and all I can say is that I’m going to be buried in it. I can’t #$&ing believe the perfection here. My muse must have whispered in Moira’s ear and ensorcelled her to use all her skills, because I literally can’t imagine a more perfect jacket. It’s exquisite. My decade has been made. You guys are THE BEST! I’m so beyond elated my journey led me to Thurston Bros all those years ago - seriously, I can’t thank you enough for the effort and attention to detail you provide to make sure we end up with legendary jackets." -M.M.

Style: Aero A-2
Leather: Seal Vicenza
"Just want to drop you a line…I got the package safely. The jacket fits better than I imagined! It’s probably the most comfortable a-2 I own, and as you know, I own a few. The hand and drape of this particular seal hide is superior to other Vicenza offerings from Aero. It’s roomy but due to the nice drape, it doesn’t look blousy or sloppy. It is also the perfect shade of “in-between russet and dark seal” color that I was hoping for. It looks like a ringer for an original seal Aero in a local museum color-wise. I’m very impressed! Thank you for the great price and awesome service as always." -J.H.

Leather: Black Pinnacle HH
"That shipping time was ridiculously fast, especially to Hawaii! I just got to open up the package and I'm incredibly satisfied. I'm amazed at how comfortably light the jacket is and how nicely it drapes straight out of the box. I think the jacket will work great for the weather we have here. The size 34 is definitely right for me. I'm also super happy with the sleeve length which I was worried about for a while. I'm glad Julie was able to fulfill my special request as well. Thank you so much for all your help through the process! Your outstanding professionalism and expertise made this experience delightful and as easy as possible. I'm very grateful I was able to get my jacket in Pinnacle. I do hope Aero continues to use it because I would love to get another jacket made out of it sometime in the future. Whenever that is, I'll no doubt be emailing you again! Thank you again!!" -J.C.

Style: Thedi Memphis
Leather: Black Teacore Bruciato HH
"Wow! Wow! Wow! That's all I can say. The leather and workmanship are beautiful and the fit is spot-on. I love my name detail that Theodoros added to the pocket. The lining is beautiful as well. I can't wait to get home and spend some more time with it. I also can't wait until things cool down here in the Northeast so that I can wear it every day. I have to admit, I was a bit reluctant to spend so much money on a jacket. But, I am not disappointed and glad that I did. I'm easy to please but difficult to satisfy. I can honestly say that I am satisfied." -B.L.

At the same time, you were so gentle and allowed my imagination to go wild and gave me ownership over the entire process. At the bottom of my heart, thank you!

"It arrived!! And, it's perfect. Every adjustment they made to the pattern was spot on, it's great in the shoulders and chest and length. The leather is beautiful and smells so good! Honestly, I almost feel like this jacket is cooler than I am. Thank you for guiding me through this process. The Thurston Brothers service was worth every penny. I know I wouldn't have ended up with as awesome as a jacket without your help. Please give my compliments to Vanson -- the people there are clearly very skilled. I have a challenging body to fit and they got it exactly right. I have a feeling you haven't heard the last from me :). I could definitely see pairing this one with something in a simpler style in black or a darker brown. Have to cover all my bases, you know. Perhaps next year..." -H.L.

Once I get around to it I’ll email you some photos. Looking forward to next year and buying another piece from you all. Hopefully you can get more items in stock and definitely more Thedi. Please!” -H.F.

"I received my new jacket the following day (Sept 2) and have tried to come up with the words that best describe my feelings. Perfect doesn't come close as it is far better than perfect. I have slept in it one night. I've laid it out and admired it every day since opening the shipping box. It was a pretty big expenditure for me and I have to admit I was pretty nervous. You made the experience exciting, easy and memorable. Thank you! Some of the comments I have read on The Fedora Lounge paint Thurston to be a miracle worker with sizing and communication. Their opinions are spot on, the jacket fits perfectly. When I have a chance, I will get some photos up to show off the fitment and beauty.

Style: Aero Sheene
Leather: Dark Maple Bainbridge
"Oh. My. Goodness! The jacket fits like it was made for me. Well, I guess it WAS made for me, but you did an incredible job tweaking the measurements from the fit jacket!
The leather is a little lighter color when it’s made into a jacket, vs the little swatch of it… but that’s exactly what I was hoping for. The grain. The feel. The smell. It’s simply perfect!
This is the kind of leather that is beautiful because of its natural characteristics. I found a small scar that the steer must have had, and I feel for him (I’ve snagged myself on barbed wire too). Finger nail scratches show up, but they don’t detract or take away from the beauty. This thing is going to age like nothing else! All of the details are right. The lining is just wonderful, and I’m so happy I ordered the matching tie.
The Sheene has that pointed, western style yoke in the back that just plain works for me. I’ve got a pair of boots and a belt that will complement the jacket nicely, without looking like a cast member from a Western movie.
...the fit and style are exactly as I had hoped they would be. This leather is supple and nice right out of the box, much softer and easier to move in than the black FQHH of the tester jacket." -M.C.

The Shetland sweater is also stunning, it's a fantastic fit, really nice thick wool, and a great creamy white. Its one of the nicest sweaters I own (and I have some really nice ones).

Leather: Midnight Blue CXL FQHH
"Got the jacket today. Noticed it was sewn by Toni who had sewn up my last jacket. The fit is spot on right out of the box. Initial impressions: Fit is fantastic right out of box. ...this jacket is just ever so slightly more roomy in the shoulders, obviously aided by the back design, which I really like. Construction is perfect, leather quality is great, sewing top notch. I really like the design, fit and feel of the jacket and my optional selections. Had a slight twinge of regret not getting olive stitching vs. the black I selected, but remembered I wanted it to look more like a functional piece than a show piece with contrast, etc. Was expecting the midnight blue leather to show a bit more blue, but the obvious upside is that the dye presents on the hide a bit like a tea-core so I’m sure the contrast with wear will give a nice patina. It’s really not quite black, not quite blue, sorta greyish, but with wear will be something else entirely. Not an obvious color to pin down when you look at it. Overall, thanks again. It is so rewarding to receive a piece like this and have the fit be right." -R.B.

"Just wanted to say that the jacket is fantastic. It fits great, all of the little quirks I had with the fit jacket are resolved in this one. It's rather stiff, to be sure, but not in a way that really matters when it's on you. I'm going to wear the hell out of this thing and I imagine that it'll break in pretty nicely after a year or two. Also, I know I said I'd probably not wear it on my bike, but we've got some unseasonably warm weather here right now and so I went out for a ride in it yesterday and it felt great. If I get any decent pics in it I'll be sure to send them over. I know it's on the plain side, aesthetically speaking, compared to a lot of the stuff that comes through your shop, but that sort of clean simplicity is exactly what I was looking for." -A.G.
