That would be great, thank you! Really miss my 618, the more I think about it…

I had a 618hh previously, but that one was very smooth and shiny, and the label was different too. Would it be possible to see a pic of the tag in the coin pocket, please? Would be interesting to see when this one is from; it’s certainly a great looking jacket!

Helpful info, thank you @Bkcmart

So their size 42 measures 40” around the chest? That’s surprising to me. Thanks for including the measurements. .

Love it! Genuinely think that’s a brilliant fit.

Just adding that I have spoken to Aero, and it seems that despite my best efforts I was not measuring the sleeves correctly, and they are as specified. I have to put that down to my own lack of expertise, as I had measured other jackets I already own to inform the sleeve length, and evidently...

That’s interesting, and encouraging, thank you! I love motorcycles, and tend to have a couple at a time - but at the moment only have a little Kawasaki Ninja 300. I had a ‘90s Harley Softail until recently and will be keeping my eyes open for something similar, but sold it to help with...

Generally I tend towards the shorter fit on sleeves too (just onto the hand is fine) but I am a little concerned given that this is before the sleeves wear in and crease, and the jacket is intended for real use on a motorcycle, reaching forward. I have sent a message to Aero to make sure I’m...

Received. This is meant to be the tumbled version of the CXL HH (it looks very much like the non-tumbled version in their pictures, and going from my non-tumbled Highwayman) and is the KOTR model but with a fixed mouton collar. The sleeves are a full inch shorter than specified but it still fits...

Mine was delivered a couple of weeks ago, but I‘m away at the moment so haven’t been able to see it

I’d love to be ble to put on a suit and look/feel like James Bond, but it is not to be: I look more like someone about to appear in front of a court of law

Don’t suppose you made a note of the measurements of this one? I’ve been considering buying the same model, and unsure whether to go for the 40 or 42

I have a 42-43 inch chest and bought a medium, which is a size down from their suggested sizing and it was still pretty roomy. It worked as an overcoat, which is the intended purpose, but I find that when outside and active I just don‘t need to layer that much, so would prefer a trimmer fit...

I sold my Super Monza a few years ago and really wish I hadn‘t! It’s subjective of course, but I think it is my favourite style from Lewis

That looks great! Would it not be worth keeping it and layering underneath in cold weather?
