Size 38 with added sleeve and body length. Also did a 19 shoulder. Pit is 23ish. They fit similar to stock 38 hwyman but a touch slimmer in body and shorter. Stock 38 has a 23.5 back and i did a 24.5.
I think this is cxl hh i wore it today.
the ghosting on the chest pocket flap looks amazing, and the collar takes nice shape too, I really need to wear mine on bicycle riding too.
Has Aero been sending people the wrong leather? Can't say I've heard of that except of course when the Simmons crew was in charge. If so, you'd be able to return/exchange I'm sure.
It's not. CXL is brown core. This is a dyed-through black, which eliminates CXL and Jerky. Looks like black Vicenza. Similar graining to my Vicenza jacket.
@navetsea , keep in mind that I wore it on a bicycle as an underlayer Jan-April in NY in mostly cold temperatures, pretty much every day for about 90 minutes - my regular bike rides. It worked great because the thick denim blocked the wind very well. Wearing it under a shell jacket provided the denim with a bit of abrasion, accelerating the fades. I saw that trick in some online fade competition - a guy wore a denim jacket as an underlayer for a whole year while doing manual work and got the most beautiful fades I ever saw. I am very impatient, cannot wait a whole year, and also don't want to wear the same jacket for 8 hours/day, so I used the jacket for biking. I like the result. I intensely dislike brand new denim and wanted to "personalize" the jacket asap.
I like the shirt as much as the jacket-- the colors complement each other well. How the jacket fit/feel when zipped?
Thank you, it fits great zipped as well.
Looks awesome! How long have you had the jacket? CXL steer? Now they charge 200gbp extra for this leather, mainly because they are discontinuing it I heard. Received a sample of it - blown away even by the sample. So awesome to see it on a well worn jacket!
Not sure and not really bothered by it. How are you determining it is dyed through? I did not look at the zip pulls and side cinch leather, but that may indeed be dyed through black I will need to take a closer look. I have bought quite a few new aeros. Leather is nothing like my other black vic jacket i just got from them. Feels more like my previous cxl jackets. Leather is beautiful whatever it is and i am pleased. That is all that matters to me.
Yes think you are correct based on zip pulls etc. good call. Either way i am happy. Always love “scrotal” used to describe something but it is true lol
