A big chance for @ton312 to redeem himself too.

PM'd. Just sold my Aero CR in an attempt at thinning the herd but now this! Hopefully these measurements are off or something else

Yeah, it’s a big jacket. Trust me. I want this to fit like a 40 but that chest is not even close...

This was the finest Aero I ever owned and you can't do any better than dealing w/Aerofan. He's one of the best!

Ton, this one used to be yours? Does its chest fits more like 44 (if I remember that your review correct)?
P.S. It's an impeccable jacket!

Yes that's correct!

Very interested in this if it's still available. Such a cool jacket.

Yes that's correct!

It's one of my favorite jackets have been shown over here ever.

It's weird, both my Bootleggers are size 40 and have a 24.5" pit to pit, wonder why this one is that much smaller.
I usually wear a size 42 or 44, but 40 in bootleggers.

Edit: actually, looking at @ton312 's original pictures it looks like it is about 24", maybe @AeroFan_07 only measured the front panel to get 22.25".

 

[AeroFan_07]

Yes, my apologies for the late reply, Pit to Pit is just under 24". It's tricky to measure that. I don't deserve the compliments, you all are just great! Yes, it's still for sale...welcome to PM if interested. I'll be trying to stay very close to the asking price on this one...thanks.

 

[AeroFan_07]

Thank you, this is Sold!

Congrats new owner with one of the best jackets ever!

 

[VestCoast]

Absolutely thrilled, can't wait to get my hands on the jacket and try it on. It will likely be a slightly looser fit, but I currently can't layer anything under my Sheene so I'd love a little more flexibility.

Were you at all tempted to buy it back? While keeping jackets in the TFL family is cool, I can sorta see how being reminded of a lost love can be painful.
