    Aero 1930's Half Belt Battered Seal Sz 42 Fit Check

    You’re a legend! Thanks for busting out the measuring tape for me on this. So you think the sleeve length on mine is fine? Not worried about it rising up over time?

    Aero 1930's Half Belt Battered Seal Sz 42 Fit Check

    Thanks for such a thoughtful response. I see what you're saying and that's given me more confidence in how this one fits! I do wonder though if the sleeves on this jacket I have are just a touch too short, like 0.5in too short. I spoke to Aero about this and they said I can expect 0.25in to...

    Aero 1930's Half Belt Battered Seal Sz 42 Fit Check

    Did the tricep area of your jacket look anything like this when you first got it? I’m kind of wondering if maybe the armholes are just too big for my body type. In the pic, you can see there’s a bunch of fabric that juts out from the tricep, which looks pretty funky to me.

    Aero 1930's Half Belt Battered Seal Sz 42 Fit Check

    Hey thanks for the input! I was thinking that was likely the design decision. When this is zipped up, I still have pretty great mobility thanks to that extra space. Just hoping that as it wears in, the material sticks out less and lays against my body more.

    Aero 1930's Half Belt Battered Seal Sz 42 Fit Check

    Hey all, wondering if y’all could help me make a decision on this new Aero jacket I just received. Overall, I really like the leather and most of the fit. From the front it looks spot on to me, but I have some doubts about the back. As you can see, there’s some bunching happening around the...
