I'm unclear on why some double breasted jackets or coats had 6 buttons and some had 4 (some had 8 too) but I don't seem to know why or what was the reason for the different count.

Everything reduces with wear, denim is the same over time. Always, always, always trust the manufacturers specs. 40 years will teach you how to make a jacket fit. Top makers like Aero always give about 5% with all cloth and leather for you to grow into. Savile Row are the same. Also could...

Further to my suggestion for clippers Worf, you may have a pair with guards to help. I have found this very useful to trim around arm pits jacket not mine. Why o why don't those lining jackets leave two inches bare in the pits?
Some of you may or may not know I am hosting a kickstarter a vintage inspired denim collection, it is made up of vintage cut 16oz Japanese denim which for me, for winter, is on the right size of heavy.
Check it out here...
I own vintage and new jackets, and I usually now only buy new jackets as buying an old leather jacket (for me) is like buying an old dog. I went for the Aero as I am a fan of Ken's work.
