Apologies if this is a stupid question, but is the quoted sleeve and back length of an Aero A2 measured to the end of the leather or to the end of the knitted material?
Thanks in advance.
I'm selling my lightly used Cordovan FQHH Highwayman. A bit too big for me after a bit of weight loss. Happy to answer any questions. Details in the Classified listings.
I'm selling a lightly used Aero Highwayman on eBay. It's size 44" in Cordovan FQHH and has the upgraded Alpaca wool lining. Unfortunately, it's just a bit too big for me now that I've slimmed down a bit. Rather than repeating the whole listing and photos here, the item number and link are as...
Well I'm no expert as you can see from the questions I've been asking here, but I'd say that logically the PHWM would scale in proportion. In other words, whatever the ratio of shoulders to waist/body is will remain the same regardless of size. It looks to me from the pictures that the PHWM is...
Just in case anyone's interested, I spoke to Aero on the phone today and they confirmed as follows:
The PHWM is slimmer than the work coat and so you would need to upsize to get the same shoulder width in the PHWM as the work coat. In other words, even though the work coat is slim, the PHWM is...
Thanks for the comments. I do have a couple of questions in with Aero already. In the meantime, I looked at the ad placed by AeroFan in classified and I was surprised by the difference in shoulder width between the HWM and the PHWM. That suggests that the PHWM is significantly narrower to me.
I...
I'm stressing over buying a new Aero jacket and I'm torn between the Original Hercules and the Premier (slimmed-down) Highwayman.
I already have a standard HWM in size 44 that I bought quite a while ago and having slimmed down a fair bit, it's really now too big generally, especially in the...
Just out of curiosity, anyone have any idea why the original Hercules at 735 uk pounds seems to be the most expensive jacket that aero sell? It's not in the premier range but has a higher ticket price than those and also many other jackets that look much more complicated to make. I wonder if...
I know this thread is pretty old now but if you're still following it AeroFan, would you mind letting me know the shoulder measurement for your 44 30's HB? Thanks. Also, anyone know if the premier version is actually slimmer than the standard 30's HB, or is it just detail differences, collar...
Thanks for the comments so far. I'd probably have never even considered the tumbled FQHH except that Aero say on their website that the tumbled particularly suits the original Hercules jacket - not sure why. Anyone here got an original Hercules in tumbled FQHH who could comment?
I'm considering buying an Aero Original Hercules but can't quite decide between standard CXL brown and the "tumbled" variety of the same leather. I quite like the look of the tumbled from the Aero website but I'm wondering if it's just a lazy shortcut to getting the "broken in" look. My other...
Anyone have any experience/comments on the Aero alpaca brown wool jacket lining? How thick is it and what's it like to live with as a jacket lining? I'm wondering if it might be a little too warm/heavy for everyday use. Feedback appreciated.
Further thoughts on the highwayman...
The jacket I bought was from aero stock and came with what (I think) are a couple of optional extras. First it has a full length wind flap behind the zip which looks to be double thickness leather. While this looks aesthetically ok I wonder if it serves any...
Ok, thanks for all the great advice guys, and thanks to Holly for the comments from the source. Good to know that the manufacturer takes notice of places like this.
Best
Hey guys,
I've just become the proud owner of a new highwayman in standard black FQHH. It was a bit of an impulse purchase based on a stock jacket that happened to be my size and I didn't want to wait the usual 3 months or so. The quality of the leather and the workmanship is faultless but man...
