Hello Carrie,
I've seen the new Aero page and it appears that the sizing have change ? On some models, you advice to size down or on the former Aero page, it was true to size. (i choose the Sunburst for example). Could you tell us please ?
Cheers,F68

Some customers wear the Aero Sunburst true to their suit size. However, most customers size down one size. For example, if a customer usually wears a 44 suit, they will most likely purchase a size 42 Sunburst. I hope that this helps!

Hi Carrie,

Does the Vanson PLU3 come with longer arms as well or just added length? thanks.

Hi Chi-Town Co,

The Vanson Comet PLU-3 doesn't have length added to the arms, but our Vanson Model B Deluxes and Model BH Deluxes have 1" extra added to the sleeve length! I've attached photos below...

Those bastards over at Insurrection! I just succumbed to all this high-pressure advertising they do, and ordered a Vanson Model B House Deluxe. :D

When I was growing up, all the cool "older guys," guys in their 20's, had Vanson jackets featuring the logo. We impoverished teens never could swing it, so I guess I'm reliving my youth, sort of. Should be here in about a week.

I believe Mark Twain is the one who said that childhood is that brief period of life that one spends the rest of one's life trying to outgrow! I wonder if MT ever lusted after a Vanson while growing up? :D

You're going to love it! The Vanson BH Deluxe is very, very nice!!!

I just wanted to put the links up to our new Aero Civilian and Military Catalog Pages one more time. Please remember that we carry every style of Aero and every North American customer who needs an Aero fit jacket will be provided with one so that we can get that perfect Aero fit!

Just received my Vanson Model B House Deluxe. I'm not sure I'm man enough to break this thing in! It appears to be capable of stopping a bullet, and will stand up by itself. The size 40 is a good fit for me: no pictures, as I'm bashful......
The 1.00" extra in the sleeves seems a bit long upon first glance but will be just right as the leather starts to crease, and the additional 1.00' in length comes down a bit below my belt, so it's a good thing the jacket has double zipper pulls. Otherwise, during the break-in period, the collar would get shoved up into my windpipe, depending on which bike I'm riding. Also, the lining is definitely not a lightweight material: it should wear very well. And lastly, the inside breast pocket is so deep that no wallet will ever be in danger of exiting on it's own.
My wife is going to like me in this jacket so much that she won't even scream when the bill comes in!!!
