    Aero Sheene became too tight. Need advice ;-)

    Thank you very much for your answers. Probably loosing weight is not very realistic since my girlfriend prefers my physique the way it is now ;-) I always tend to have slim legs and a rather bulky upper torso and that's where the jacket is too tight now... The pit to pit measurement is around 23...

    Aero Sheene became too tight. Need advice ;-)

    Hi, I am a proud owner of an Aero Sheene (= Aero Cafe Racer with Collar) in Size 42 which I ordered from Aero Leathers in November 2015. Unfortunately, I have gained a few pounds (both muscle and fat) since I bought the jacket (I am 180cm and 84kg now). Now I feel that the jacket restricts the...

    Optimizing the fit of my Aero Sheene

    Hi everybody, I have been the proud owner of an Aero Sheene size 42 in FQHH for 3 months. I am happy with the jacket but I just don't get rid of the feeling that the jacket is a bit (too) short. I've ordered length 27-27.25" and the jacket turned out as 26.5-26.75" (which of course is within the...

    Aero Sheene sizing help

    My new Aero Sheene in brown FQHH has just arrived. Length is 27". I am 5 Feet 11 Inches tall. August Collar. No biswing-back. I'm quite happy with it. If I could choose again I would maybe add 0.5 to 1 inch in length. Sorry for bad quality pics (I you can see my mobile phone is not an I phone ;)...

    Aero Sheene sizing help

    Thank you very much everybody for all your answers. You have convinced me, I will stick with size 42 ;) About the sleeves: I find them too wide around the cuff openings (and as you said the zip sleeves would slim that part down a bit). But I also find them a bit wide around the upper arms and...

    Aero Sheene sizing help

    Hi everybody, I need your help for sizing me with an Aero Sheene. I am 5 feet 11 tall and 176lbs. I've just ordered an Aero Sheene from the Aero sales page. The jacket has arrived yesterday and I have made some pics with my smartphone camera (sorry for the poor quality). The Sheene is size 42...

    AERO Sheene...another Thurston Bros. Success Story!!!

    Hi, @tnjyoung: What size is your Aero Sheene? I've got a 43.3 inches chest. I've tried an Aero Cafe Racer in size 40 which is too small. An Aero Cafe Racer in size 42 fits good. But I am wondering whether I should ask for a size 41. Thanks for your answer Greetings from Germany Philipp

    Aero Sheene/ Café Racer Length

    Thank you for all your answers! I've had the chance to do a photo with an Aero 1930s half belt in size 42 with 26.5" back length (Aero says it's 27, but it's rather 26.5). Sorry for the poor quality and the odd angle :) What do you think?

    Aero Sheene/ Café Racer Length

    Hi Guys, I'm thinking about buying an Aero Sheene/ Café Racer in FQHH. I've had the chance to try the jacket in size 40 and 42. I'm quite sure I have to go for size 42. In size 40 I can not even bend my arms to 90° and hardly get out of the jacket without help. I'm 180cm (5 feet 11 inches) tall...

    Will Aero FQHH jackets become a little wider after some years of wearing

    Thank you very much for all the answers. @I would go out tonight: How does the cut of the "Premier 1930s half belt" differ from the "1930s half belt slim fit"? Judging by the photos on the Aero-website the sleeves and chest part of the "Premier 1930s half belt" look even tighter than the "1930...
