That's a quality B-3, is it an Aero?

It is. I bought it from a fellow lounger last year in the middle of a heat wave. I had a tailor trim the torso. He took out a good 2 or 3 inches from the bottom and mid section. It was ideal because I still needed the ptp and length from the bigger size. Carlos gave me that idea because he did something similar on a Schott B3. The tailor did a great job on the cut, but he missed some stitch holes here and there and didn't match the thread properly. It's only noticeable if you go looking for it, but it was before I knew about Dena. I'm hoping the fur collapses some because it is bulky but that's the design anyway.

@TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead Wow, your B-3 looks awesome and excellent fit - I guess I should do it like you when I go out to the Bakery early in the morning, etc. Shame on me as I haven't worn it a single time so far....

Thank you. Maybe it's me and I'm not used to the cold, but I can easily wear 1-2 hours in temperature up to about 60-65 F. Again this is with only tshirt underneath. It's so perfect to add instant warmth without having to layer on sweaters etc.. I wouldn't want to be wearing all day, stuck on a subway, etc.

I did break down and bought that Toys McCoy one on Classifieds. I couldn't resist as this shearling style with more of a fitted look is the ONLY jacket I've ever wanted. I thought the Aero would fix that need and while I love it for different reasons, it's too much for every day all day long type use. I'm just praying the TMC fits. Will be close. And I'll see if I keep the Aero too for those cold mornings LOL.

What Jacket Did You Wear to The Beach Today?

GW Hercules Horween Brown Mustang.

I missed this jacket. I got it cinched in a bit since 3 years ago, and it likes this climate, the wax finish softens up, and when you get in close the grain just POPS!
