Nice simple and understated design. From the front it looks like my Sheene. Not sure what the back looks like as I never see it. Nice jacket.

Yep, it’s a Sheene with shoulder gussets on a the back.

You won’t find the Sheene on the Aero website but it’s their Cafe Racer with a shirt Style collar.

It does look like the Sheene, but those shoulder gussets are not the standard Sheene (but could have been an option).

Looks too boxy to my eye to be a Sheene. If it's more than a few years old, it also predates that model. My best guess - if I'm right that it's a boxier fit - is a zip-sleeve Highwayman, custom-ordered with the sleeve gussets.

If you look inside the pockets (assuming you have the jacket in hand) there might still be a production tag that will give you a date - that will help. Holly@Aero (Cloudy Lemonade in these parts) will be able to give you a steer.

My black Vicenza Sheene has the shoulder gussets like @dan_t whereas my russet Sheene has a plain back. The op's Sheene appears to have no handwarmer pockets zippers which I much prefer as the zippers abrade my hands. If I were to order another Sheene it would be with handwarmer pockets without zippers and plain back for a cleaner look.

It's not a zip sleeve highwayman. The back is nothing like the highwayman, and is clearly a cafe racer.

Rather than a Highwayman, still looks like a Cafe Racer (Sheene) design that might have had a couple of centimeters added to each side panel.

Seems like a large Sheene to me, note also that it lacks the side adjustment straps as well as the 2" or so bottom panel all the way around detail.

Both are pretty similar.

Could be - that would certainly account for it looking much boxier....

I'm guessing it's quite large?

....could also be that. Hard to tell without seeing it worn, really.

I missed the lack of side-buckles; could be. Quite possibly some form of hybrid - which, of coursE, the Sheene orginally was.
