I would wear it a few months prior to having any shortening done. The thick horsehide sleeves will crease and you will notice some shortening. Much better to have too long than too short. Looks to fit pretty well, although it may be a few months before you'll be wearing that jacket in North Carolina!

I agree with Grayland and Fanch, wear it and let the sleeve shorten a bit and if you think they are too long after some wear, you can have Insurrection shorten them to your liking. I call that the best of both worlds! The overall fit looks good and I always like a little room for layering!!

Great outgoing shipment of Aero and Vanson today!

From time to time, I'll post up our outgoing Aero shipments so that folks can see all the arrays of Lochcarron of Scotland Tartans...

Aero Tone-Tone jackets seem to be the hit for Fall 2013, with customers specifying not only Two-Tone Dustbowls, but VERY cool Aero Two-Tone Sunburst and Aeromarine jackets!

The Aero Sonoma Racer is always a hit...

Tumbled and Battered Brown horsehides are definitely a favorite choice for all Aero models!

Everyone loves the new Aero Fontana Racer, as it brings classic late-1940s/1950s cafe' racer style back!

Possibly our best new hit from Aero is the Aero Maxwell! A classic 1920s/1930s half belt...!!!

Contrast stitching is one of the new favorite specifications on ALL Aero models!

With its clean look and understated appearance, IMO the Maxwell is one of the best looking jackets ever made by any company.

I've yet to get to one, though I think an Aeromarine would be my buttoner of choice, just for sheer variety. Not this year though, otherwise family members and bank manager will be staging an intervention...

I'd like to see some cropduster pics myself as they basically seem to be non existent.

Carrie, have any of your customers ever ordered one?

I think we have one on the way... Hopefully he'll post pictures up!!!

Oh man but what if he's not a lounger!? Can you snap a few shots before you send it on pls?

I suggest you tell this guy that posting a review is obligatory, as there is literally nowhere (that i know of) with decent fit pics of this cool jacket

Beautiful new lightweight tweeds from Locharron of Scotland! We've got a number of August production jackets specified with these lightweight 100% wool tweeds named after quaint villages in Scotland. Locharron even keeps neckties and flat caps made in the same lightweight tweeds in stock! Here are our three favorites out of the twelve tweeds:
