    Aero zip sleeve Highwayman Black CXL FQHH, Shoulder Gussets

    Well said sir. The ones that make us frown the most are the ones that seem to "shrink" with time.

    Aero zip sleeve Highwayman Black CXL FQHH, Shoulder Gussets

    I was advised to go with a 38 highwayman, which in a steer fit jacket zipped up with a t shirt but was too tight (I usually wear a size 42 dress coat). I owned a 42 highwayman in Horsehide had a pit to pit of 25.5 which was too big. My current size 40 highwayman in tumbled horse has a p2p of...

    Great to see it Chris! My own size 40 black Highwayman is currently at Aero getting red con on drill as we speak. Looks great!

    Aero Linings

    Mine had just the body in alpaca. When I say it was itchy I mean it drove me crazy. I'm not sure how old it was. In regard to Chicago winters, I have been through enough to suggest storm cuffs, a little longer jacket and a little extra room. Whether you get alpaca or just a fleece under...

    Aero Linings

    I would personally go with corduroy or moleskin, hopefully in a jacket with room for layering. Air is a decent insulator, and a tight leather jacket will conduct the heat away from you fast. Aero's alpaca is warm, however mine was too itchy to wear comfortably and so my Highwayman is back with...

    WTB: Tommy Hilfiger Lethal Weapon 4 jacket

    I have a highway one MaGuire jacket (very similar, soft cowhide) in a large. I can send you pics if you're interested.

    Unsure of my size

    With insurance and tracking I've never been able to ship my fit jacket back for less than $60, but that was via UPS. Perhaps USPS would have been more reasonable!

    Unsure of my size

    I'll actually contest that. I've had maybe 4 or 5 fit jackets, and several others owned. Two I currently own are both aero cafe racers, both measure almost to the millimeter the same in pit to pit, waist, shoulder, back and sleeve length. Both with cotton lining. One is steer and one is...

    Unsure of my size

    Honestly, you could burn money in getting jackets sizes wrong than a plane ticket to Seattle to visit Insurrection in the U.S., or Aero directly from Europe. Try all the jackets you want on and get your sizes for future orders. While this on the surface seems crazy, a new aero will run you...

    LTB Aero brown FQHH or steer size 40 or 42

    Keeping my eyes out for any brown or cordovan FQHH or steer. For reference a size 40 highwayman from Aero fits me spot on. If you're thinking of moving something on, keep me in mind.

    Anyone with experience with Aero's sateen lining?

    Great to hear! They have a burgundy available, it was that or red drill for my black Highwayman. .Not sure what other colors but based on your collective experience I'm leaning that way. Techno...thanks for the photo!

    Anyone with experience with Aero's sateen lining?

    Considering Aero's sateen vs cotton drill for my re-line. Thoughts?
