Carrie, what's difference between sheene and highwayman?

The Aero Sheene is based on the Aero Cafe Racer. The Cafe Racer has more of a "V" shape...wider shoulders/chest and a more tapered waist. The Highwayman has a straighter shape through the torso. Both are very flattering silhouettes when properly sized, but some customers have a strong preference for one over the other!

Vicenza Highwayman!!

Unreal coat, color changes every time it hits different types of light. Sometimes chocolate, sometimes a touch of Cordovan type tint. So soft and pliable, but still thick feel and look. Cotton sheen lining smooth as silk, lightweight. I could literally sleep in this jacket first day outta box.
I am a vicenza lifer...will post fit pics as soon as I get some that do this work of art justice.

Thanks to Carrie for all the help, let' do it again!!!

Here's something exciting--custom Aero Board Racer in Natural Vicenza Horsehide with matching stripes on the sleeves and shoulders! It's a subtle look now, but the stripes will age a little differently than the rest of the jacket, given their slightly raised profile. Really looking forward to seeing the development on this jacket in a year!

The Aero Seven has grown quite a bit in popularity over the last two years! Here's a custom Seven in Seal Vicenza with a Crail Check Tweed lining. The Seven is a casual style with a slim fit (based on Board Racer pattern) and it is a very comfortable fit in a medium weight leather like the Vicenza Horsehide! It's easy to get the right fit in the Aero Seven--contact us at sales@thurston-bros.com to reserve a fit jacket and start your custom order!
