Looking for a shearling coat and came across the Aero B-6. Does anyone here own an Aero Seal Brown Type B-6? I'm wondering how it fits, the warmth of it? Too bulky?
Here is the link to the website;

Any knowledge would be appreciated. Thx
I'll tell ya, I have a Good Wear B6 redskin 44 and it is the nicest jacket I own. It works for most winter days here in Alaska and I only need to break out the B3 when the weather dips into the negative digits.
I would go with the stiffer jacket at first and let it break in well. Shearling is a fickle thing and would always rather have a thicker leather than thinner. Just me.
The Good Wear is well worth the construction wait, really amazing stuff!
Is there a 2 year waiting list for those as well?
Phew! Waiting that amount of time is pure dedication I'd be worried mine would not fit by the time I received it.Yep, John is doing it all on his own right now. The last I heard the waiting list is 16-20 months or so.
Oh, you only have to give your final measurements and style when you get to the front of the queue. Otherwise, that would be mad. Just imagine: all those men around the world desperately trying to maintain the waist and jacket size, saying "No dessert for me darling, I have to think of the Werber!"
