Anyone out there witha size 44 Aero HWM I need measurement?

[1avrgjoe]

I've posted some stuff about my attempt to order a new HWM. I have a 46 that I think fits but Holly at Aero has suggested I size down to a 44. My 46 measures 21.5 shoulder seam to seam. If anyone has a 44 HWM I'd like to know what it's shoulder measurement is?

straight across the back .. outside edge of shoulder seam at top of shoulder to outside edge other side is 21" exactly Joe.

( jacket is a 44" 2004 FQHH Highwayman with Alpaca lining )

This is my Wested Indy jacket that is 20.5" shoulder seam to seam. I'm afraid of downsizing to a 44 because I don't want this to happen again.

I like this jacket but have never been able to wear it, it's too tight!
