Ad today there was a huge packet at home.

Spects:
Modified Long Half Belt with a Botton Front
No Zippers at all
Vital brown
Leather Collar
Size 48 but with + 3,5 in lenght
Sleeve Length + 1,1/4

I love the Back from the long Half Belt and the Botton Front of the Cheyenne and i am so happy that Aero make this combination.

Congratulations on your jacket Gregor! Fit pics are not easy, and range from those who have someone help them and end up with professional looking results using great cameras to others (like me) who use the self timer on their iPhone to get a quick picture then crop it. There are some threads on here with more tips on taking fit pics, but anything will do, we just all want to see this great new jacket. Welcome to the lounge.

back again and i will trie the first pics:

Ok but i have to take a bit more time to make some better pics.

 

[gk133]

Hm,

after wearing it a few hours inside there are 2 points i am not so happy with.

1. the instep of the Sleeves and the hole sleeve are to tight. I can only wear it with a shirt not with a cardigan or Hoody.

2. the main pocket are to short for my hands.

is there the chance to make this things good fitting?

regards

gregor

Do you mean the pit to pit (chest) is too small, or the armpit/ sleeve connection is too high?

 

[gk133]

The armpit is to high and the hole sleeve is to tight

 

[dudewuttheheck]

That's surprising as the sleeves don't look abnormally high or small to my eyes. Maybe you work out too much haha.

It's a shame, as the jacket looks gorgeous and I am loving that purple liner.

Just how hard is it to wear with a cardigan? Can you even fit into it?

 

[handymike]

This doesn't seem to be a slim-fit styled jacket. If you bought from Aero, contact them. Their customer service is very good

 

[gk133]

Im a former swimmer but it is realy hard to come inside.

The normal posebility of movement is with the HFQH tough but now i move like a robot

 

[gk133]

Mike you are right. I made the messure with Aero with a little bit plus because i had the Plan to wear it in the cooler time with cardigan or Hoody.

The jacket fit superb only the armpit and the sleeves are not compfortable.

I will call Aero at monday and i am sure that We will find the right answer

Great looking jacket and that liner is really nice...don't think I've seen that one used before but it works well.

Its a shame you aren't happy with it out of the box....one thing to keep in mind is that leather will shape, stretch and mould to your body to a degree, how tight is it?

 

[zebedee]

The fit will adjust- I remember being worried by a Highwayman fit when it first arrived. It stretches and gives over time- my Aeros take about a month or two to be fairly comfortable, and about six before they're casual. Give it time, it's a tough hide and can feel unusual early on.

I'm digging the button front with that style jacket, kind of a timeless design. It works really well.

I'm also guessing that it's an FQHH leather? If so, could the 'tightness' simply be that it is brand new & needs wearing in to soften?

Hi Greg

The 2 pockets are not really useable. As you said it is very hard to stick hands in there but because your jacket is new and stiff, it is even harder to bend your arm and reach inside.
I also own a regular half-belt and a cafe racer. Both jacket front pockets are not so deep and hard to bend my arms to reach in.
I guess they are more decorative purpose.

Hi Gregor,
I have a modified stockman, which from the front looks identical to yours! on the pockets does your hand fit comfortably into the handwarmer pockets? I don't think the flapped part of the pocket is intended for hands, more for carrying things, I tend to put a credit card case in those or something which I'm not going to be using very often, but I find the handwarmer pockets very comfortable(my jacket may be longer than yours) I also have long arms my sleeves are 27" (68.5 cm).

Gents,

i have to make a correction.
After wearing the Jacket today the "Problem" with the Armpit and tight sleeves are not so dramatic like i think.

so most of you are right

the armpit is high but not to high as all.

i can wear the jacket with a layer or cardigan and it is ok also.

i will post some more pics in the next days.

i must say that i am so happy!
