Too late on this one, too small for me. I missed an offer from the seller and I'm glad I did, it would have been tempting even without a fit.

So cool and so hard to find. I see maybe a couple a year.

I’d do it, but it’s too close to the Walter Dyer…
That excuse is WEAK SAUCE brother!!!!! Go get that Campus!! Pretty unique front pockets should set it apart enough to give you another wrinkle in your fashion portfolia!!! I say at least throw em an offer and see which jacket wins your heart---the WD or the Campus........ Who knows who will win.......

NOTE: You really shouldn't take advice from addicts but I thought I'd throw some your way anyway man. ; )

Sincerely,
The Devil on your Shoulder

That color combination is awesome. I wonder why I don't see that more frequently. Maybe I'm just not looking frequently enough? The Sportclad (white/black/navy) is better, but Filson had a similar color plaid pattern (charcoal/black/navy) on their double mackinaw a few years back.

it is a striking combination. I don't see this combo on wool and I look at a lot of wool jackets. The only drawback to the Sportclad was the absence of the side adjustments, at least to me.

That is the thing that draws me, I can’t seem to get along with side adjusters, damn things always snagging on everything. Regardless, I don’t have a v-shaped torso so their utility would be lost on me.

Hey, guys. Has anyone here ever bought a pre owned directly from aero? Are they willing to adjust any measurement (more specifically sleeve length)? Do they negotiate the price? How's the procedure? Much appreciate any reply!

I recently purchased this jacket via ebay, I thought it was a cal, but the more I look at it the more it resembles something else. Can anyone identify this jacket? Thanks!

Looks CALish......... from those horizontal upper stitch lines of the handwarmer pockets but I am not the expert here. Oh @JMax !!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS--YEAH----perhaps this should be posted in its OWN thread within the OUTERWEAR FORUM as opposed to any other thread WITHIN the Outerwear Forum like this one is. Just throw a Title on the thread asking for ID help. Its a common practice. Nice jacket. Best of luck. I'm sure this will be figured out.

Not the right thread, but-- I think they'd be fine making alterations, but I doubt they'd be willing to negotiate price. If anything, alterations would likely increase the price. Your best bet would be to e-mail them directly, contact information can be found on their website. These are my personal guesses, and they could be wrong. And if you manage to find an amazing find/deal on their used page, feel free to contribute to this thread by posting the link!

Oh, sorry... I never know where's the right place to post questions...
Nevertheless, thanks for your reply. It's nothing like an awesome deal, it's just a makeup that I liked and that I think the measurements would suit me (apart from the sleeve length).
