Aero COVID waiting times - 1930's Slimfit

I placed my order mid Sept. and was told 14-16 weeks. I’m not expecting to see it before April. As with everything else in the world an extra bit of patience is required.

 

Yeah it’s going to be a long haul. I’ve danced this dance before though. Best to simply set it and forget it. When you get the ready to ship email all that wait magically vanishes!

 

I placed an order in April and will be getting my jacket this Friday, I would expect Aero to be busy well into the holiday season. Set it and forget it.

 

Placed end of June, shipment notification received today

 

I grabbed a 1930's Cordovan Halfbelt from the sales page..yesterday at 6am.. Ill have it today :O

 

Custom is usually the best way to go as you'll get the exact jacket that you want.. the sales pages while great are a dangerous place to look because you end up buying a jacket you didn't know you wanted...

 

It's completely harmless to me because the standard sizes don't fit me anyway. *lol*

 

I placed an order for an M-422A in late July, had the details finalized yesterday, and was told that the estimated delivery time was mid-late November...so you're not alone there.

 

Much the same here. I ordered in mid July and finalised last week. It is a long wait but worth it.

 

It's worth the wait!

 

Aero typically overestimate processing time but that’s good as you’re hardly going to be disappointed if they say 12 weeks and it turns up in 4. I think the longest I’ve waited is 6 weeks and the shortest is 10 working days, albeit this was a year ago.

However in the current climate I wouldn’t be mad if it takes a lot longer than the estimated time for your jacket to turn up since the order books will have stacked up during their shutdown but either way it’ll be more than worth it!

 

When I placed my order it was 8-10 weeks and it has been 12 weeks already. Today I asked for estimate and they said it is going to be 2 weeks more.

 

I finalised the spec at 12 weeks; next week will mark 14 weeks total.

IIRC, pre-COVID, my other jackets took 4 weeks and 8/9 weeks.

 

Looks like a fresh 4 week lockdown has been put in place, at least in England. Not sure if it will impact Aero. Honestly I’ll be happy to see my jacket in April or May.

 

Fortunately England isn’t Scotland. Here’s a link to lockdown measures, currently active in Scotland.

Thanks for that! Wasn’t sure how widespread the new regulations would be. I will keep my small glimmer of hope for wearing my midnight blue V2 over this coming winter alive!

 

If Nicola can hold off on her own lockdown for another week or so, just long enough to hopefully receive my jacket, I’ll forever say she’s a top lass.
