I suspect its a one off design by a customer inder a previous regime? -would it have been allowed out of the factory under KC?

You are quite right Van I looked up other threads using hippie jacket and opinion seemed to be divided on its design merits when it was first discontinued.

Yes, it's the Hippy jacket, introduced some time between 2004 and 2011. Ken killed it off when he came back in 2012, reasserting Aero's period of interest as stopping in 1959.

The ugliest jacket that ever came out of an Aero factory, officially, was that custom Windward that someone ordered with a cafe-racer collar. I believe that at some point Ken actually had that one on display with a label stating "The worst Aero Ever".
