    FS: Aero Premier Highwayman size 40 and Aero Majestic rust suede size 38

    The Majestic is also on hold. That was quick. Should have asked twice as much;)

    FS: Aero Premier Highwayman size 40 and Aero Majestic rust suede size 38

    The dimensions of the Majestic are similar to those of the Premier Highwayman, despite the fact it's tagged 38, not 40. Shoulder 18 inches, length without collar 24 inches, sleeve 25.5 (from shoulder seam to Botton, including cuff), P2P 21.5, hem 19. The problem with this jacket is the hem...

    FS: Aero Premier Highwayman size 40 and Aero Majestic rust suede size 38

    Jacket on hold for a potential buyer until next Sunday. I am also contemplating selling this beauty, six years in, very good condition: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/new-majestic-just-picked-up-at-aero-hq.95609/ Let me sleep on it (I don't really want to part with it), but if anyone is...

    FS: Aero Premier Highwayman size 40 and Aero Majestic rust suede size 38

    Hello to all. For sale is a brown Horween Chromexcel front quarter horsehide Premier Highwayman jacket from Aero. The jacket is used, in a very good condition. The leather has creased and developed character. The custom alpaca lining is as new, there are no tears or broken seams anywhere, the...

    New Majestic just picked up at Aero HQ

    Thank you. Sorry, no natural daylight currently where I live, have to wait until early spring. I have the Premier Highwayman as well and will try to post photos for comparison. They’re quite similar.

    New Majestic just picked up at Aero HQ

    I’m going by what I heard from Denny when I was picking up the jacket; after all, Aero staff should know best. It was raining lightly that day and Denny said „you’d best not put on your new jacket on a day like this”.

    New Majestic just picked up at Aero HQ

    So do you recommend washing $1000 suede jackets by hand, or is it OK to just pop them in the washing machine? Can they be tumble dried as well? :-)

    New Majestic just picked up at Aero HQ

    I have had minor issues with the suede shedding/leaving some residue like loose nap. I have learned to live with it, though, and it has all but disappeared. The suede is wonderfully soft and resists stains. The softness is a double-edged weapon, though. If I let it hang on the Aero hanger for...

    Aero Premier HWY - Guidance needed

    I have a HWM Premier in CXL, size 40. My Majestic in goat suede is a 38. I sized up as per Holly&Co's advice and it was a good decision, seeing as the HWM (unlike the Majestic) is meant for layering and is lined with alpaca. I find the HWM Premier a slimmer fit than the Majestic. Here are my...

    Aero dilemma

    My Majestic fits spot on and measures in at 21”. However, the Majestic is a spring jacket, mostly worn over a T-shirt; now I am looking for an autumn/winter one, so I added half an inch for layering and specified an alpaca lining.

    Aero dilemma

    Thanks all. In fact, I have gone with option C. Returning a jacket from Poland is a bit of a hassle. I have found out that the lining I want happens to be included at no extra cost with the custom jacket I want, so that's 40 pounds "saved". I have measured myself once more and discovered that...

    Aero dilemma

    Thanks. The added value of option D is that it does not exclude option A. If there is a jacket on sale that ticks all the boxes, then why not take the plunge; if there isn’t, I can still go for option D. However, if there is a customs charge, increased VAT and increased shipping charge after...

    Aero dilemma

    Greetings Loungers. I have a pre-purchase dilemma and would like to solicit your advice. I am looking to buy a brown CXLFQHH jacket in a size 38 and have the following options: a. wait for the online sale (August 19th) and hope something from the Premier range or an August/Majestic/Original...

    What colour CXLFQHH from Aero

    No doubt, this is always the best advice. However, if I do take it and end up with three jackets, in order to give each the credit it deserves, I should probably wear the blue one on Mondays and Thursdays, the brown one on Tuesdays and Fridays, and the cordovan one on Wednesdays and Saturdays...

    What colour CXLFQHH from Aero

    Great, thanks all! So, I suppose, case closed, unless anyone can see any disadvantages of brown?
