    Taking Proper Measurements On a Jacket

    To avoid measurement errors ALWAYS lay the jackets FLAT + ZIPPERED - relaxed without wrinkles and without any stretching. Same with your shoulder measurements, better lay it flat instead hanging over a chair... look here ....

    what kind of shoes with a leather jacket

    I prefer the same as you Stanley - with the mighty three colors black, brown, cordovan I like to match the shoes and belts - maybe too snobby or just old school. Never go with black leather jacket and brown shoes it look somehow wrong, strange and inappropriate. Oh sh** I've forgotten to take...

    What kind of Flightjacket is this . . . A2/G1 without flap pockets...

    Oh, a good consideration that someone should selling the Jackets quite well - if necessary.

    What kind of Flightjacket is this . . . A2/G1 without flap pockets...

    I am wondering about this jacket - is this a quite unknown Flightjacket or just custom made ... Since not erverybody like Flap pockets - and not everybody see the need to wear only historical accuracy jackets - probably an idea to create a different "Flightjacket"? What's your opinions /...

    Aero customer service-- can't be beat!

    I am sure its a Windward with Cafe Racer collar and stud cuffs . . . . was it a customer request or a fault? Not my taste, but what is so bad?

    Khakis - which ones?

    Same here Benny - the mercury rises most up to 43C/109F for Christmas :flame:- but nevertheless I feel fine with Bills Twill - imagine all the people who wearing 15oz jeans all the time...:eeek: Happy Holiday!

    Aero Jerkey Horsehide

    I agree - the midweight Horsehide is less stiff compared to Frontquarter Horsehide, it softens quite easily and has a surface from grainy to smooth. With wearing the reddish undertone comes through and develope nice patina - but it takes time. On mine I always missed the waxy feeling which is...

    Khakis - which ones?

    I totally agree!! After many trials and errors, I found my Chinos in Bills Khakis. Mostly I wear the Original Twill in 8,5oz in color khaki, british khaki and - next - in color mushroom. I am a 38"-waist-guy and prefer the M2 (standard) fit - roomy, 0.5 -1" under the belly botton, without...

    What kind of lining do they use in the sleeves of jackets with shearling?

    Thanks Highwaymanman - as far as I know AERO uses with a shearling lined jacket one size up - so if your oil pull HWM is quite roomy it might be a good idea to get it shearling lined. On the other hand a black FQHH is a must (IMO). And if the time is right for a new (leather) jacket I would...

    What kind of lining do they use in the sleeves of jackets with shearling?

    @Highwaymanman - I ordered the same size as my others - because I want it to wear it just with a shirt (only the armpit to armpit measured one inch more) Its fun to wear a jacket in cold winter with just a shirt ... but I am able to wear it also with a (light!) merino sweater without any...

    What kind of lining do they use in the sleeves of jackets with shearling?

    I have one of my Windward lined with shearling...sleeves lined with alpaca and overlayed with satin - just fine and its not bulky.

    Is a jacket with thicker leather warmer than one with thinner?

    I have seen here in Southamerica no sweaty cows/horses....:D Oh, perhaps only when they be prepared for the asado (BBQ) But I must admit that today I can only wear a shirt...! We have today 40 degrees C / 104 F - and man, it's hot like hell!
