I have some A2 jackets like Eastman, Aero, Bill Kelso, and Cockpitusa. For me, Aero has the best value for money. Eastman and Bill Kelso are very expensive. Cockpitusa is at lower quality level, but it´s cheaper than another three. Good choice.

That is a stunning jacket. I’ve owned Eastman and Aero A-2’s. I think the Eastman’s feel more authentic, but Aero’s leather options and customising options make for a better overall jacket in my opinion, and I think your photographs confirm that. Enjoy that A-2 - it is sensational!

I agree completely! Authenticity is wonderful and something we all strive for, but in the end I want a beautiful, fitting jacket. Aero's customization, options, and fit make their jackets outstanding!

Hello guys
Just wanted to show you some pics of my three months old now Aero A2 Bronco in Russet Vicenza Horsehide. I´ve not seen many pics of this model on the forum so wanted to share some.

I ordered it in russset color with mint green stitching, mustard cotton lining and mustard wool knits.

I´m 179 cms ( 5 10”) and 76 kgs ( 168 lbs) and ordered a size 42. It has 25,5 back lenght and 26” sleeves. Its seems the Bronco has one of the longest pattern concerning back lenght since originally it had to be 26.5” but preferred to shorten it a bit.

I would say its a slim fit pattern, a bit snug fit bor being a 42, not roomy but not
unconfortable at all. I have an Aero Sheene in 40 size that sizes similar, may be with a bit more room at shoulders and back

I´m happy with it , leather is beautifuly grained and russset tone is very nice.

Hope it may help somebody

Cheers from Barcelona

Joan..

That is a super looking jacket.. I am looking at ordering the 42-15142-P in Vicenza Seal, but after seeing your russet jacket I might rethink the color.. Because I already have an Aero in russet I wanted to get one in Seal just to get two color varieties... Oh well decisions, decisons..

Hi Kent
Unless you ask a sample of the exact batch that will be used in the jacket, one never knows what shade is going to get
I ordered my first Aero Sheene in Seal color and arrived in a beautiful ( at least for me) seal redish shade (ordered the lightest seal shade) . Had to send it back because it was small and ordered a size up. The one I got one month later had a completely different color, less redish and more chocolate.
When decided to buy the russet Bronco A2 I asked for a russet sample. The jacket I got had a different russet shade than the one I had in the sample.
I must tell I like more the one of the jacket than the one I got in the sample.

I don´t know if this only happens with Aero but I would say they have too much color variation in Seal and Russet batches
Regards

Very helpful pics!! I’m looking at a 42 bronco right now and it also has the mint green stitching which looks great in pics but also looks a little more khaki colored. Does it look different in person?
I usually wear a 40, so would you recommend sizing up to a 42 with the aero bronco?

Hi.
The mint green stitching it s a light green color, not vivid but not khaki I would say.
I´m 179 cms ( 5 10”) and 76 kgs ( 168 lbs) and the 42 fits me fine with a shirt or T shirt only ( a bit snug, but fine)
I wear a 40 in my Aero Sheene

Eeks that’s kinda scary because I’m 185, but I’m also taller at 6’4”. I can usually take a 40L in mostly everything unless it’s a slimmer cut in which case a 42L fits okay. Fortunately the one I’m looking at has extra sleeve and body length, but now I’m unsure about the 42 haha

The Bronco has a slim cut, is not roomy
Pit to pit is about 23 and shoulder is 18.7 in my 42 size

Your Aero Bronco looks great. Although I sold my Aero Bronco not too long ago, it was a size 44 that fit me well. I currently have two Aero Sheenes in size 42 but still have too many leather jackets.
