Pic of sleeve as requested. Have to check the hem but it seems pretty normal. Not skinny tight

My bad, that was for the perfecto I’m selling in a different thread.

Bottom hem on the aero is 20.25
Couple pics showing the black Vicenza with some brown teacore wearing

It’s a Thurston original. Speedy dustbowl, which is similar to a regular dustbowl, only faster. I had this jacket and it’s beautiful. The hide is amazing. I’m not normally a vic fan but this is very nice. The back is art.

Thanks for the insight, Ton.

That’s a very sharp jacket.
The two vertical panel seams highlight the wedge latt-to-waist sweep.

Is this the same jacket? I assume it is your measurements seem different to Carrie’s

Interesting question.

Also, the jacket that Ton has on does not look as long as the Thurston’s measurements. (Thurston’s “26.5”)

• I wonder if there were different versions/runs of this jacket.

For a moment, I had a Thurston’s Thedi that was made a few years ago; it has a different liner than the current model. So, there are spec changes.

No idea about Thurston. I got it from Ton, but like many others here, we go through our flavors of the month and have too many jackets. Trying to sell a few I don't wear as much to pool funds for a future project

any chance of some additional photos showing the jacket against a tape measure showing how you came up with your measurements?

Also would you consider posting this to Australia?

USPS international postage is crazy expensive now, think it's abut $85-$100 for a large Flat Rate board game size box

Hi I’m interested. A bit worried about sizing. Are you by chance located near the Los Angeles area? I’m 5’11” 185 and usually wear a 42r in most jackets.
