FS or FT Aero STF Bootlegger 42 Brown CXL FQHH

[Ayeteael]

Ordered January 2019 through Thurston and received in March. Brown, Size 42 Horshide Bootlegger with zip sleeves. Nickel hardware. 1 inside pocket and NYC wool tartan lining with olive cotton sateen sleeves. Olive drab stitching throughout.

The STF cut is trim; this BL was tight pre-Covid and has only gotten tighter. Worn sparingly and barely broken-in. I never wear it, so I'm looking to sell for $750 shipped in the US, or trade for another Aero in Size 44. Prefer to trade for another jacket of equivalent value. Open to different makers as well, not just other Aero Bootleggers. Thanks.

Sweet Bootlegger! That 22" Pit to Pit makes me think of a Premier-fit pattern...

Thanks. Yep, it fits closer to a 40.

@Ayeteael is a great guy to work with as well.

Preciate it, @ton312. You’re the BL godfather. I wish this BL fit but I’m not the man I used to be!

Is this a slim 42 fit? Or more of a 40?

It’s probably a large 40 or very slim 42. I wanted a trimmer fit bit should have gone with a regular BL instead of the STF.

I always wondered what STF stands for?

I always think of Shrink to Fit - as in Levis 501's. Beautiful jacket.

Same! Thanks, wish it fit better but it’s all part of the learning experience.

Hello everyone,
the Aero bootlegger is one of the jackets I stll need to get one day.
This one is a STF version, "super trim fit", it was made for the japanese market.
22" chest would be too mall for a standard size 42.
Could you measure the shoulders, I am afraid it's around 17,5 or 17,75 ?

Traded to a fellow lounger in exchange for a different Aero. Thanks, TFL.

I am on the other side of the trade. It has been a present exchange. I traded an Aero HWM zip sleeve made from a nice batch of brown CXL horsehide.
