    Aero 50 s half belt vs 30s half belt vs highwayman

    Fanch, I've always been fond of that Pioneer of yours. Is the fit that of a half belt, or less slim? How do you think it would translate into FQHH?

    Aero 50 s half belt vs 30s half belt vs highwayman

    Aether, Looks like it fits you well! What size is it? The highwayman seems to come out a bit shorter in the front than the rear, so the drop front of the 30s half belt was appealing. Does anyone know how the 50s half belt compares in fit to the highwayman specifically?

    Aero 50 s half belt vs 30s half belt vs highwayman

    As my 42 highwayman is a bit large on me, I'm at the point of reordering. I was looking to size it down to a 40, but the half belts, especially with their longer front length seem appealing. I am 5'10" 200 pounds and long waisted , short legs...so a slightly longer front length would be nice...

    Soft steer or goatskin?

    Thinking about a new Aero or AL half belt in black in a lighter leather. The Vincenzo's samples I have soaked up water like a sponge, because of that I'm leaning toward black goat or soft steer. Opinions, experience, photos?

    Highwayman with Shoulder Gussets

    OEM, I nearly did the same thing but went up a size instead. The highwayman seems to have a tight-ish upper back in any size from the ones I tried on. I was originally sent a 38 as a fit jacket. It was skin tight and I needed help to take it off. I was afraid of feeling too restricted while...

    Goatskin vs horsehide

    By all means post photos of the new jackets when you get them! I was a little scared off a bit from the Vincenza as the samples seemed to soak through with water in a couple of minutes, but they see also uniquely nice.

    Goatskin vs horsehide

    Thanks for that perspective protein. I'm finding myself with similar preferences I think. That being said, what is your personal one go-to jacket in such a hide?

    Aero highwayman brown FQHH size 42 sale

    I actually had it as a 42 tapered to a 40 at the waist, which helps a lot. I have more issues with the upper chest and shoulder area feeling like its "floating" around unless I'm wearing layers. Perhaps with time and draping this will feel more fitted. As this is my first heavy hide jacket...
