I am posting few fit pictures with my new Aero Sheene jacket ordered through Thurston Brothers, thank you Wade and Carrie for helping with the process. This is my first Aero and second FQHH jacket (I recently posted some pictures with a Peagasus Safari Jacket). It is a modified Cafe Racer in heavy brown FQHH, regular collar, no shoulder gussets, V shaped single pointed yoke, Nickel bell shaped pulls with horsehide toggles on handwarmer and and zippered sleeves, diamond shaped Talon pull on chest pocket. 6AD53891-8545-4477-A54F-947F4313BC8F_zps2zjynbgp.jpg 9047387B-4079-48F4-9AF4-05EE616FD004_zpsye9wlrpv.jpg 96EA9986-2E1E-4EA6-AA7D-92BF2DF0AF62_zpsm4fp1sao.jpg CBA2D469-973D-4FA8-9C0D-F92F8F96DF25_zpsey4mshmu.jpg E6218BD6-DEDB-4379-9A3F-6E9857F6A2C4_zpsvjfbfqtt.jpg 9308E22E-20AF-4D60-B0DC-55F463D7E0D9_zpsmrwy6yh0.jpg C8B3F6BA-72D0-48C8-B751-5CB6AEBC844F_zpsm5rdlemc.jpg E0EDCF75-50AB-45A3-A998-D4A0C9667BA9_zpsqdqpdct6.jpg Very close in design to the Fontana Cafe Racer but with collar and horizontal chest pocket. Lining is Minto Check Tweed with brown cotton drill in sleeves. It is Size 38 with 26 inches sleeve length and 26.5 body length. I am 5'9'' weighing about 170 lbs.

Thank you, I am very happy with the fit! Also, the new leather smell is something out of this world...
We are competing at home over it:)

That's what it's all about. Great jacket, spec'd out perfectly and in a perfect fit. What's not to like? Except maybe raising a kid with that level of familiarity with finer thing$.

One of the nicest jackets and best fits I've seen on the FL. Love the simplicity of the design, and the color, too. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy!

Very nice trim looking jacket, suits your frame perfectly. Great piece of hide too, you can't beat the smell of a a new Aero in the house!

I'm glad someone else finally picked up an Aero Sheene. They're one of my favorite Aero designs- simple, understated, minimalist, and very cool. FQHH Brown was a good choice (mine is FQHH Brown too.) You're going to love it even more after it starts to break in. Wear it every day and give it about six months and it will start to show some real character, it'll look awesome! A great fit on you too!

Thank you Technovox, I have to admit that your jacket influenced my order! I was looking at a Cafe Racer with a simplified back but wanted a collar...The pictures you posted on TFL made me pull the trigger. Thank you!
