One of my favourite parts of this jacket, those A-2 style epaulettes, just perfect.

Just received this Aero. It's my first jacket in CXL so the stiffness came as a shock On a more concerning note. These annoying wrinkles. Are they normal or should I opt for a return? Stock jacket...

That must be disappointing for your first big jacket purchase but it could be a blessing in disguise.Just received this Aero.

It is...It was a regular from their ready to wear section. Not their apprentice section. I want to make clear it was no custom order though but no flaws mentioned.That must be disappointing for your first big jacket purchase but it could be a blessing in disguise.
Is there anything you want to tweak? Leather, colour, length etc. This has just become a fit jacket to ensure the one you keep is perfect!
Aero is above board and unless this was clearly sold at a discount , I'm be VERY surprised if they didn't make this right with as little hassle as possible.
Let us know how you get on.
When you first got this I checked out Wingman but took too long to order one of these and missed it, so the fact that it looks this damn good stings a bit! Really niceGetting warmer, thought I'd show you the evo of a 23-oz Wingman denim Type iii over three months on bike (not motorbike) rides as a layer and one wash. They do get better with age, lol.

Thanks. Keep an eye on Wingman other offerings, they should have some in heavy denim coming up, also their Japanese denim is nice. You can contact them on WhatsApp, they respond.When you first got this I checked out Wingman but took too long to order one of these and missed it, so the fact that it looks this damn good stings a bit!

As already mentioned by some forum members, return the jacket. You will never be happy with this one, especially since you have a direct comparison with your elmc roadstar and this scale is hard to surpass...Just received this Aero.

Thanks! I just picked them up at a second hand store last week and I've been wearing them with everything. I like how everyone from Wes Anderson to the Wu Tang Clan has made them cool over the years, ha.Omg! I haven’t seen Wallabies in years. They go perfect with that outfit.
Particularly nice... mind if I ask which horse hide/tannery Shangri La used for that one?
Thanks! It looks better in direct sunlight. CF Stead according to their site:Particularly nice... mind if I ask which horse hide/tannery Shangri La used for that one?
The combo of the pull up and the creasing all the way up the arm is fantastic.Thanks! It looks better in direct sunlight. CF Stead according to their site:
The Front Quarter Pull-up Horsehide by Charles F. Stead is made by selected European Full Grain horse hides tanned with Steads’ traditional garment tannage and finished with a blend of “classic pull-up” waxes. This produces a pure-aniline leather with a Unique Rich character.
