I've exchanged quite a lot of mails with Holly from Aero. I've had to wait around a week or so for the answers.

Hi HD, thanks for your kind words! Yes, it's my first Aero. Therefore I really try not make any failures...

Thanks for your remarks! Concerning the leather: I wanted to express that they should choose the softest hide they have out of the regular FQHH stuff. I've reworked the leather specs (do you think it's clearer now?): Leather - Heavy Front Quarter Horsehide - Leather color: Brown (the...

Hello my friends, at first I would like to thank you for this really great forum. I've read all threads concerning Aero leather jackets (I'm not kidding!). After several months I've made my decision. It would be nice if you could finally review my specs :-) Model - 1930s half belt...

Thanks Fanch, your answer was quite helpful! I've got an answer from Holly concerning the requested measurements of a standard 36 1930s halfbelt. For the case that somebody is interested in this information: Shoulder-to-Shoulder 17.3” Pit-to-Pit 21.5” Waist 18.5”

Thanks for your answer Boyo. I do not intend to use it on a motorcycle (for this purpose I'm using a kangaroo racing suit). As the style of the 1930s halfbelt is intended for use with high waisted trousers: How much body length should I add for use with low waisted jeans? I've measured again...

Has anybody remarks to my quoted question?

In order to determine my perfect sleeve length, I've measured several well-fitting jackets. The measured jackets were pretty thin. How much length would you add considering FQHH and probable folding and creasing? By the way: my perect sleeve length is 24.5-24.75".

@Boyo Thanks for your tip, I've already seen it too. Holly mentioned the following measurements: Size 36: - Sleeve 24.5" - Back 22.5" Size 38: - Sleeve 24.75" - Back 23" I'm waiting for her answer about the other measurements: - shoulder to shoulder - pit to pit - waist It would be nice if...

Thanks for your answers! Could anybody provide me some measurements of a 36 1930 halfbelt (preferable made of FQHH). The following measurements would be interesting for me: - shoulder to shoulder - pit to pit - waist @Dr H I think a thin shirt would not add anything noticable to the...

Dear friends, I would be very thankful if you could help me with the sizing of a Aero 1930s halfbelt. Here are my body measurements (naked): height: 5'8" weight: 140 lbs chest relaxed: 37" chest expanded: 38.75" waist: 31.25" Here are some measurements of a made-to-measure shirt...

I've received three leather samples from Aero: - brown heavy steer - brown FQHH - vintage brown FQHH From the samples I got it seems that steer is much softer and more pliable and that its color gets lighter when stretched (which I really like; the both horses do not behave this way). Is this a...

Thank you for your efforts :)

Hi jimmer_5, do you have any current pictures of your jacket?

Haven't you chosen inner pockets?
