I’ve always liked that design, but hard to tell what that leather will be like. Looks a little “mall jackety” but that may be misleading. Measurements all look good to me, except the shoulder seems narrow..
Yep, hard to get fit right for me. Maybe because of pattern, but I found that measurements varied pretty widely within the same size/patterns that I tried. I wanted to make Aero work, but they never did for me.

They are definitely up high, but not untypical for the button up vintage style jackets that were part of the inspiration. I'll attach here pics of two main ones that I was partly inspired by -- one a genuinely vintage Sears "Topline" jacket, and the other a Freewheelers "Switchyard" coat. I...
I've posted several pictures of the custom jacket made for me by Dave Sheeley, and I was about to post new pics on one of the previous threads; but it occurred to me that it's time for a dedicated Dave Sheeley custom jacket thread. I know that a few others here have had Dave make full jackets...
^^Flat sole lace to toe boots in the US (like the Chippewas) were generally considered roofers’ boots. I think linemen would normally have had heels. Not sure if the roofing is somehow related to the “monkey” designation for the boots, but maybe. Names are tricky though and often really hard to...
