Aero Highwayman

http://imageshack.us/a/img6/9903/img0013xip.jpg. The pic didn't come out too clear but it's ok. I just got my new used Aero HWM FQHH. It fits well, it's a 46. I think I like my Schott a little more but it is sweet, it's broken in perfect for me. What do you guys think?

I think it looks great! I'm a definite fan of the HWM!

Looks good on you. Can't see the sleeve length. One of my personal criteria for jacket fitting, and you display this very well.......is both sides of the zipper parallel to each other with a few inches of separation.

Wear it in good health.

Not a big Highwayman fan but that really suits you. Well done, Brother.

I think it fits the way it's supposed to, I thought it was a little small at first but it's good.

Wear it in good health.

What kind of jackets do you prefer?

What kind of jackets do you prefer?

It's totally personal but I prefer a half-belt or a cafe racer. With the Highwayman I'm not keen on the separate band that runs along the bottom of the jacket, spoiling what could be a lot cleaner look. But the jackets have grown on my in recent months.

That's it man..........you nailed it. Definitely a keeper. The fit can't get any better.

Looks great. I like both Highwayman and Half-Belt types.

How is the fit with the jacket zipped? Looks Pretty close to right on for jacket not made with your particulars. Was it purchased on eBay?

Although this HWM is new for me my favorite is still my Schott 141, I love that jacket, it's just so great looking IMO, I wanted a jacket w/a shirt collar and the HWM fit the bill for me. I was looking at a Aero Half Belt that's on ebay right now but went w/this one, I'm happy I did.

It's good zipped, I was thinking the same thing, that it's almost a tailored fit. I just got my first really good Jackets in the last few months and learned what good fit is. What I used to think was too small is actually a perfect fit. I bought it from an online acquaintance. I paid half of what a new one costs which is still a lot. I actually think it's better than new though, it's broken in really nice, the leather has some nice wear and fading that looks great.

Schott 141, it's definitely my favorite.

Have you ever tried the 741HH? That's a sharp jacket.
