    Sizing of a Aero 1930s halfbelt

    I imagine both will fit you. I bet I'm a full size smaller than you and I've got a 36. The fit is nice, but not super slim. if you want a very slim jacket get the 36 if not, the 38.

    Himel Brothers Leather Co.

    How annoying! I'v only had my aero for 3 months and now this turns up. I was expecting my "never need to buy another expensive leather jacket" attitude to last a lot longer.

    Merry Christmas from warm, sunny Dallas, Texas ...

    Funny to see this post because I'm also in Dallas (Love Field), in the snow.

    Ordering a 30's Half Belt Aero for the first time

    Overall, it seems very difficult to predict the fit of these jackets. I'd send your measurements and trust them. If it doesn't fit, send it back. I'm very slim. Most 36 suit jackets are a tad big on me but I was told a 36 30's slim-fit half-bet would fit. It does.

    Indy, Iron Ranger, White's or ???

    I own a pair of White's semi dress with a lowered block heel. This is sneered at by some but who cares! I sent in the custom order form with a trace of my foot and the fit came back snug, but perfect. I think they look good and they are very comfortable. I have owned Red Wings (gentleman...

    Horween USA and Aero Leather Joint Statement

    For those that are interested, this is exactly the kind of grain differences I have on my August-made 30's half belt. Thanks for posting the pics.

    Horween USA and Aero Leather Joint Statement

    Let me know the result. I have a 30's half belt that was made in August. Both upper arm panels and the lower back panel is much softer and lighter weight than the rest of the jacket. I assumed this was standard procedure. Now I'm not so sure.

    Aero 30's Slim-Fit Half Belt

    Tito, that jacket looks superb. The fit is perfect. Did you size up or are you usually a 40?

    New Half Belt from Aero

    The jacket looks nice to me. Do you mind answering a fit question for me? I recently sent my measurements to Aero and they suggested a jacket that is one size larger than I would usually wear. It was also a 30s slim fit half-belt. Does this sound wright to you? Thanks for your help.

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    To those who are still having problems with bank refunds... I opened a transaction dispute online (this might be better than calling them or going in to a branch). I made it quite clear that I though that I had been a victim of deception/fraud. The bank called me back and i explained the...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    How is everyone doing about getting their money back? eBay and PayPall were useless for me. However, my bank came through with no problems despite the transaction taking place over a year ago. Filed an online complaint, talked to them two days later and got the cash in the bank a day after that.

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    I can't remember how I found out (it's been so long since I placed my order), but I always knew that Aero USA was an independent company. I knew that my contract was with Aero USA and I had no expectation of any help from Aero Scotland. I therefore thank them for their advice and I hope to do...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    Well, I ordered my jacket in early 2011. Each time I followed up on the order I was sent a very polite reply about a delay and it will be ready soon..... It turns out that he never sent the order to Aero. No ifs. No buts. That's fraud. Many customers (including myself) will not be covered by...

    A Message From Aero Leather USA

    Guys, This is the response I got from Aero regarding my outstanding order. I'd hardly describe this as good customer service. "Seems, yet again Mark has failed to be honest with you. We've never received this order, much less is it being delivered at the moment. At the time he closed his...

    panama hats direct?

    Panama Hats Direct get a good review from me. It's my first hat so I have nothing to compare the quality or value to. However, the amount of work that must have gone in to the fino fino is impressive, it's exceptional. Service was also very good for me.
