The neck thing with Aero is common topic. I don't think this gets better, especial with CXL. The problem with CXL is even when broken in, it's still going to be stiff in colder weather because of the waxes. So this really depends on the climate you're in. My Sheene is pretty comfortable...

It's big yeah, but not potato sack big. I think you're doing better than 99% of how people dress nowadays. There was another A2 fit discussion thread recently describing the challenges of this style. It's a style of jacket that's never going to fit like other slim fitting styles. It would be...

very nice. I was watching Wild Hogs over the weekend and William Macey character has something similar. Good looking jacket.

I think @powersci had an Aero for sale. Check search in classifieds or PM him.

thanks for info. I'm probably a size or two down then. I'm 6'0 185. The "stretch" afterwards is what throws me off I guess. Think you need to account for like an inch in the waist, so that's why I always hesitate. Expensive jeans to make a mistake, but if they fit, wow, great jeans.

what's your height/weight when they fit? I can never figure out IH sizing for jeans.

Killing it, bro. You been on fire lately.

Holy Snickies. "Pioneer Wear" will be trending any second now.

ask him to check in the inside pocket. Many of them have the size written in pencil on the white canvas material. That'll give you a bench mark, but in any case, you want the photos of measurements anyway. PTP is deceiving on these jackets. Have them take a measurement a couple inches down...

yeah, I tried one on maybe 9 months ago. Was spectacular. I think all the leather is US unless it specifically says Italian Horsehide in the jacket description. This one. It has the USA tag so I think that means materials and made in usa. vs "made in USA" tag which means materials were...

I don't know which year they started putting tags in the pocket, but you can see the models there that give more details. I've seen 164, 174, 184, etc. Then you need to research what leather was actually used. Usually in the schott forums you can pick up details once you have the exact model...

I've got a couple versions of these. Amazing jackets especially for the money ($100-200 range). I'd say even bigger bang for buck than the usual Brooks/Kehoe/Fidelity, etc. but that's my subjective take. The difference in the two I have is one is clearly a 100 series Schott leather, i.e...

OMG wow. Congrats! I too have a fascination with shearling, not necessarily just B3s. It's crazy because I live in Los Angeles area, 111 f. yesterday LOL. But I actually wear my shearlings the most of all my jacket collection from Nov to Mar because they're perfect to grab and go in the...

alterations will cost you more than jacket and might not turn out well. If you were starting from scratch, sleeves could be about a half inch shorter and overall more tapered to the opening. Body could be more tapered as well to address some of the blousing in the mid section and back, as well...

LOL. Love it and not saying you're not speaking the truth. But it's kind of like saying you want the qualities of a sportscar when you're buying a SUV. They have different looks, purposes, functions, designs. An A2 is never going to fit like a cross zip and nor should it.
