That’s a nicely executed B-3!

Which leather is used?
Are the zips brass or nickel?

What is your normal sleeve length and how do the sleeve measurements translate vs a non-shearling jacket? This is the most important question for me - I spec 26-26.5 sleeves on jackets, but may go shorter, depending on the shoulders.

Thanks!

Thanks for your interest and questions!

The jacket is sheepskin with the horsehide sleeve overlays/pocket to example spec as Aero makes them. The zipper is what I believe to be brass, it's light gold in color.

I'd say that the sleeve measurements on the jacket are pretty true to their length as they would fall on a non-shearling jacket. Maybe a little longer because of the shearling fluff at the hem of the sleeve. Depending on how the shoulders fit on your build, they may drop a bit lower, but in my opinion, it's more so the width measurements that are really impacted by the internal thickness.

Thanks for the quick response, it sounds like the sleeve would be too short for me, but good luck with the sale, someone’s going to love this!
