Aero J107 Brown Steerhide sz38

[avsmusic1]

SOLD!

For sale is a custom Aero j107 leather jacket bought from Thurston Bros this spring. I snagged this from ebay recently and it's crazy beautiful but I'm afraid I need a bigger size. I'm a slim 40 typically (5'9" and 165lbs) and this fits but wont work with anything heavier than a t-shirt. The initial owner had it made from heavy Horween Chromexcel steer hide, with several custom mods which I will list below:

• Brass hardware, Talon zips
• Delete belt, belt loops and shoulder epaulets
• Delete kidney panel and front coin pocket
• Heavy black corduroy lining
• Small shoulder gussets instead of bi swing back
• 2 interior pockets, 1 vertical snap closed and 1 horizontal
• Leather pull tabs, Olive drab green contrast stitching
• Extra length added to back and arms
• Sleeve zips on top of sleeves, not underneath.

Measurements are as follows(approx)
Pit to pit: 21"
Sleeve from shoulder to cuff: 25"
Back from collar to hem: 25"
Shoulder: 18.5"

This jacket has been worn for ~3 months and has the wear and tear you'd expect - nothing major and it's just starting to break in. Just trying to move this quick (for less than I paid) to free up funds for a proper size.

SOLD!

Thanks for looking!

I'll try to get some pics up shortly but I'm not sure how to upload here yet. Speaking of my lack of experience here, I have years of history on ebay and other forums (e.g. Styleforum) that may put your mind at ease.

Here are some current pics. The prior pictures show the color depth much more accurately but these will give you a sense for the current condition (very good)

I wish it were a little bigger too
I haven't decided on it's replacement yet but it's very possible I will custom order this exact makeup in a 40

I was very tempted by this jacket when it was on eBay. The funny thing is I sold my 42" FQHH black j 106 for a 40" in brown steer and they fit literally exactly the same, no noticeable difference at all. I'm 5'10 210lbs and was wondering if I should go down to a 38"! If anyone can post the complex matrix that makes up Aero sizing they could easily sell it and buy the entire range with enough left over to also buy a small island in the South Pacific.

Unfortunately, I think you were right to hold off b/c I don't think this one would fit. Interesting to hear about the 42 vs 40 thing though. Weird
