What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

were you going to bid on it? LOL.

TBH, I think it would have been tight for you. It's just a little bit big for me. I think a 43 would have been perfect. But with no gussets and it being CXL, it's pretty unforgiving. I could use a little bit of tuck on the ptp and going down to about lower pec, but everything else is pretty spot on for me.

In any case, it's always a risk buying an Aero with the fit/comfort/wonky pattern. I will say this is the most comfortable Aero I have from my Sheene and Cafe Racer. If the CXL were any thicker though, I think it would have been game over. I love how MrPropers blackened vicenza looks though. Definitely more drapey. This CXL on can still do a semi-stiffy if I put it on the ground. We'll see what happens with time.

Thought about it but kept moving. I like the Ridley in this hide though. I’ve no idea what the measurements are. So I went back to check and it was gone.

I’m guessing a 44 would have been good on me. I’m 40-44 in Aero, 42-44 in everything else. Save the odd measurements from a few makers, notably Schott.

Thank you all. I'm really touched. I'm good thanks. Hope you're all keeping safe and well. Things seem much better in Edinburgh and vaccine uptake seems good.
I got into guitars (learned during lockdown) but I'm still rotating my stable a jackets.
Can't tear myself away from the minor pentatonic, palm muting and pinched harmonics though.

Good to hear, sir. Looking forward to the pics of you rocking your jackets whilst rocking out on your guitar(s?). It must be getting to ol' jacket weather in Edinburgh?
