Introduce Yourself Here

[michaeljcr]

Hi everyone,

I found the website after doing some general searches on denim after reading William Gibson's latest book, Zero History, which has an interesting 'secret brand' theme around denim.  Looks like there's a few Aero Leather fans on here as well which is great, I practically live in my HH Barnstormer this time of year onwards.  I'm a big chap, so I don't know if the jackets here will fit or not (my 48" Aero Highwayman is snug but my Barnstormer in the same size is fine, and I wear a 48" suit jacket) but it looks like there are plenty of posts here to help!

Thanks in advance!

Michael

welcome michael!

I'm going to need to get my hands on a copy of the WG book ASAP.  Didn't know about the denim history angle, but it sounds legit and very interesting.  A convo about Pattern Recognition was one of my first few around here, so feel at home!
Good to have ya.

Oh, and get at Giles if you wanted the IH/Aero special treatment.

Thanks for the welcome!  I had dinner with Gibson last week through work and he's a really nice guy.  I don't want to spoil anything in the new book, but read Spook Country first if you haven't already, all three of the Bigend (starting with Pattern Recognition) books are linked.

Having said that, he's now responsible for my current denim quest, so he's got a lot to answer for!

Hi Stokely

It was a fun dinner, I was on my best behaviour, didn't even say "I'm your biggest fan"…
