Aero Leather owners: Anyone ever seen a Bootlegger with a D Pocket?

Yep, that's why i ended up sending it back, it was huge.... Both my size 40 came in at 24" which is already quite large for a size 40.
All my other jackets are usually 42 or even 44.
Looked back at all he original thread. TBH it didn't look too big but I can definately see where it would feel that way, especially when it starts to relax. My 40" Bootlegger measures right at 23.5" and you're right...That's a big 40"!
Seems tag size has little to do with actual size with these leather jackets.

The one pictured in the original thread is the size 40. I sent the size 42 straight back, no fit pics.

Well that explains it! So am I correct in assuming you have this jacket in both black and brown?

Yes, you are... Got rid of the Original Hercules to get a second black Bootlegger. Both in size 40, brown has cotton lining and 26.5 back and arms, black has Strome wool and 27" back and arms.
