Hi Guys,
Here are pics of my incoming Aero Plainsman, found on their sales page. The measurements are spot on so I hope it will fit perfectly....
It's made with Brown CXFQHH with additional front pockets...Can't wait to receive it. I will post fit pics later...

It's is fabulous ! All is perfect apart the zipper which is very hard to pull up. Hope it will be better soon. Hope you will like it !

You've done very well here, fit is perfect and I prefer the pockets to the standard Plainsman pockets, I specced these pockets on my Stockman and have never regretted it.

Looks great! HH is right about the zipper. Really hard to get a better fit than that one.
Simple straightforward half-belt. Go enjoy your new jacket!

Great fit. Congratulations

@AeroFan_07 could you through some light on how can hard soap be used to soften the zipper? The one on my Sheene is really hard, even though jacket is almost new

Bob Villa says it best: (think of Graphite here) https://www.bobvila.com/articles/how-to-fix-a-stuck-zipper/#:~:text=Like graphite, bar soap can,tug until it comes loose.

I would add: tug "very gently" on these #5 zippers so you avoid what I had happen in real life about a year back....https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/hookless-zipper-help-please.84828/page-2
