$1750 to import this jacket in the USA so I'm hesitant to be the guinea pig on this one. I'd love to find a used one though and with my hips and rear end, the design and flare at the bottom will actually sit well on me.
Ouch, that's a rough hit. That's the problem with buying some of these $2-3k jackets; the resale value is not even close to the price you pay to get it new.

IMO sizing up is a terrible recommendation. That jacket is going to be wearing you. I would just ask Aero for specs to make sure you know what you would be getting with each size.
I'm a 42 is nearly everything. 5'10", 190 lbs, 42" chest, 36" waist and here is how a size 40 Aero A-1 fits on...
Welcome, @bobbymilwaukee! I'm a big SOP fan here. The Y'2s and new Double Helix jackets are looking pretty great. Hope to see more of them in the wild on here.
Love Amsterdam, although my wife doesn't like to travel to Holland very much. She thinks it's boring lol. She lived in Nijmegen, Amersfoort, and Utrecht for 10 years or so.

Good to know, I had assumed this was more a mid to heavy leather based on it's looks. I really do like that vein-y type of look with all those creases and cracks on it.
I think it looks like it fits in the chest, but it's up to you to determine whether it's comfortable or not. I'm not surprised that the armholes would be high and tight on a japanese brand. If you're going to lose 10 lbs and it's not constricting your chest and arm movements then keep it if you...
Welcome! Apart from the suggestions so far, I would also add Aero's Badalassi and Vicenza leathers. They lean more midweight with the Badalassi lighter, but certainly both very easy wearing with very nice character in my opinion. I live in the tropics, I should know.
