    great looking jacket! fits you perfectly and seems well broken in - you look very comfortable (even minus the smile)!

    it looks slightly longer than most other highwayman's i've seen here. did you customize it with a longer length?

    Hard to smile when your shoulders are in so much pain from the weight of the Aero horsehide!

    Yes, I had it customized, mainly the length of the body and the sleeves because I layer it with a sweater or a fleece-jacket in colder days of autumn or springtime. So body and arms won't get too short and the jacket itself still offers enough room to move in a comfortable way.

    Kind regards,

    Johannes

    That's a great fitting Highwayman. The extra length helps take away the 'boxiness' of the cut. Make sure you update at the 1 year mark and beyond.
