First sighting for Aero's next April Show?
I have an Aero 30's HB in 2-tone (brown FQHH-w/back trim) and I love it. Not too over the top, kind of subtle, but looks great (IMO)!!- pauleway

Questions on halfbelts
I meant having the half-belt if the jacket has just a plain back with no yolk, bi-swing etc. The belt just makes a jacket look better!- pauleway

Aero Fit Jackets are here!!
I disagree with you on the 30's HB being worn with just a shirt to look right, or designed for just a shirt. I have a Aero 30's HB, and an Alexander Arkansas (same as a 30's HB, maybe even a little snuggger) and I wear a sweater underneath in the colder weather and it looks good to me. I also...- pauleway

Fit jacket pics
I think the HB is the better of the two. I would shorten the sleeves 1/2", and if you want to layer with a sweater, I would stay with that size!- pauleway

Thoughts on doing a buckle cuff on a 30's Half Belt? Different collar sizes?
I think I've seen some 30's HB from Insur./Thurst.?? that had no yoke in the back. I would not worry about the collar size, I thought they looked a little large when I saw them online, but when I finally saw one in the flesh, it was good. I would take Insur./Thurst. advise on mods - they will...- pauleway

Russet vs Seal
Both jackets look like a good fit, the collar on the Herc looks a little large (too long) but as far as what goes with your complexion, cloths-etc., I just go with what I like!- pauleway

Aero Dustbowl Fit Help!!
The sleeve length looks good to me, But body length needs to be at least another 1/2" to 1" longer. I think you could safely go down one size also. Take a road trip to Insurrection if you can and take up Carries offer!- pauleway

You can get a breast pocket on this jacket if requested. I have the Wool/Leather Type II and it is essencially a Pioneer in wool, and I had the breast pocket put on it!- pauleway

Very nice. Fit is perfect, and goatskin is very durable, and light-weight. You will probably get more wear out of that one than your other heavier weight jackets living in that Texas climate. Congrats!!- pauleway

Aero leather 30's Half Belt Jackey, Q(uestion of size)
I'm 5'7" and I have an Aero 30's HB with a back length of 24" and the back sits just at the top of my back pockets. I think 24.5" would be a good back length for you. I also do prefer the drop front of this style jacket. Just call Insurrection/Thurston Bros. give them your stats and they will...- pauleway

The dreaded inside pocket question
Just go with the inside pocket and if you're worried about it showing through, don't put the stud on. I think Fanch had one like that, and I think they are deep enough that there should be no problem with something falling out!- pauleway
