    Aero HWY fit

    Hello Johnny - I can understand your disappointment, but, the low armholes do seem to be a feature with some Aero's. I don't think the person who put it together (trainee or not) would have had an influence on how it looks, as the pattern would have already been cut out before being passed to...

    Aero sizing...???

    I have the same chest measurements (39" - 41") and my 40" Highwayman is quite loose and I wear it with a shirt and sweater. When I ordered my Aero Californian I was shocked to see it was a 38", but it also turned out to be a loose fit. From my experience with these two styles it seems that the...

    I agree with Mr Peacoat, just explain to John what you are looking for - he is a great guy to deal with.

    **NEWS EXTRA**Good Wear flying jackets take vintage authenticity to new heights!!

    I don't own an Aero half belt, but both my 40" Highwayman and 38" Californian are way looser than than this 42" Ventura. I would say this vintage fit 42" would probably be nearer an Aero 38" Half belt. Probably the best way to go, would be to provide your actual measurements and then...

    Sorry for the delay replying - just got back off holiday. Comparing the Goodwear Ventura to my Aero's is difficult because it's such a different style and fit. However, I would say that the quality of materials and manufacture compare very nicely. Probably the most noticeable difference for me...

    Steerhide Cheyenne

    Nice photo - Mr Sierra Charriba always looks great! Regarding the hide choice - I've never seen or handled a jacket made from Areo's heavy steer, so my experience is limited. However, Amanda did send me some samples when I was choosing my Highwayman and I ruled it out and went with the heavy...

    KhalilSheikh - Thanks for the info and the kind comments. The weather here in the Uk has just turned cool enough for wearing leather, so I wore my Ventura down the local pub for it's first outing - I think if I stood any closer to some of the regulars I would be wiping drool of it :) As...

    Highwayman vs. Half-Belt.....how to decide?

    Both the Highwayman and the Half Belt are great classic designs and I'm sure you would be happy with either. However, they do have very different body shapes due to the position of the side straps. The Highwayman, having the the side straps at the bottom of the jacket, is fuller in the body...
