So has Wil any plans to take his expertise elsewhere or start something new by himself?

This truly is most fuckretarded business decision I have encountered in a long time. There is so much genetic parity between the two brands. You can guarantee that the management have zero awareness of the underground movements that fuel the interest in the collab. Like the dinosaurs they probably think the bright star is a good omen.
Actually really pissed me off when I found out, I love both brands.
Stupid.

I think that it's a great shame that Will's left Aero, and similarly that Iron Heart are no longer involved. I'd been considering a couple of jackets, and the net result is that neither are now possibilities.
I don't know what the background is to all this. There might be sound business reasons, or it might have been a falling out over the direction it's going in.
Anyway, fingers crossed that Will appears elsewhere before too long. If not, there's always a number of other suppliers. (Good Wear, Eastman, Lost Worlds, Langlitz, Lewis Leathers, Buzz Rickson and possibly Pegasus all strike me as good starting points.)

It is sad, particularly for the machinists at Aero, Will, and Giles - all of who invested so much time and effort into the collaboration.
If I may wear my optimist's hat for a moment, I think this opens the door for some new and exciting possibilities. Giles has already been scoping the options, and with his eye for quality and detail I have little doubt that something great will be found.
Whatever happens to Aero from here on, I'm just happy to have a great IH/Aero jacket.
Would you mind sharing the name of the mill that makes all IH denim? Or is that a trade secret? Thanks.
