A couple nice days today and tomorrow sandwiched between a week of crap. Aero 30s half belt getting some love today:

Finally got photos of my 50s Sierra Sportswear jacket. Overall fits me well, though it oddly pinches in the arm pits and the shoulders were hung improperly so that's quite annoying.

Another aspect of many vintage jackets I'm loving is the minimal or nonexistant front drop. Being a shorter guy with a large chest, this really suits me well.

That’s a great fit. People usually wears it, and the Maxwell, too long. I think the length on yours is how it was intended to look.

Is it cordovan or brown?

Haven't been wearing this as much since it turned very cold, moved into the 50s today and was prime weather.

Aero A1 in Russet goat, semi aniline. Forgive the mirror pic but it turns out folks at the oil firm aren't keen on being photographers.

If I could change anything I'd add about 1/4" to the ptp. But I snagged it for 375gbp vs the normal price of 810gbp. Can't say no to a 55% sale.

Still hasn't settled down in the back but I do like the length overall.

Thanks! The back is 22.5", so the front is a little longer with the drop. I'm on the shorter side at 5'9" so the length works well for me.

The color is brown but this particular batch may have had a bit of red undertones to it. Others have asked if this was cordovan as well. I suspect that the lower angle of the sun also affects the coloring somewhat as well.

Square pockets rule

I like them a heck of a lot more than I thought I would, but then again I did grow up with SpongeBob so I'm programmed to like squares.

Does that jacket have a full action back? Almost looks like the back panel is floating! Pretty cool!

More a try on as this Schott 685 arrived today, 1994 beast of a jacket . May need to be considered for the coveted Scrotum category. (At least on the back side of the sleeves)
**added a back photo…..my favorite part of this jacket

Yes there is action back underneath the sheep fur panel. Thanks.

That is superb. Love it!

At some point the post office through this on my porch late last night! Found it when I took the dog out this am. Deadstock, near 50 years old. Awesome! I haven’t torn the paper tag off the cuff yet. Unbelievably fresh.

Lucky a porch pirate didn’t snag that bad boy.

Yeah I came home at 10 and didn’t see it and it wasn’t marked delivered, USPS must be working late or really early.
