    ELC B-3 Perry sportswear fitting advice needed

This one feels good, though I could have had a bit more room. Feeling a bit unsure here. Posting some pics, taken...

    Aero Highwayman fitting advice needed

    Ok, so here I go again. Having the pleasant struggle to decide either highwayman or premier highwayman. Got a bit doubtful on the premier when the girl at Aero wrote about how slim it fits, with high armholes, narrow shoulders, sleeves etc.. anyways, she told me a size 42 would fit me. The black...

    Allright. Yeah I've heard the horsehide is usually very stiff and takes some time to break in. Makes me think of my engineer boots. They nearly crippled my feet. The steer a bit easier. In appearance, what is usually the difference between the two? The CXFQHH a bit more shiny?

    I wanna say thank's for all the help. My first thread and didn't expect this kind of action. I've decided to go for a premier hwm in black cxl horsehide with brass zippers/talons. Still not sure what size, but now I don't have the issue with pit2pit and the low armholes. Still not sure what...

    Got some help with meassuring. Taken with a t-shirt and a sweater: Pit to pit 50cm Shoulders 48cm Also meassured 2 jackets that fits me good. Not leather but about the same boxy style as the hwm, and they both are: Ptp 56-58cm Shoulders 52cm Back 63cm Arms 62cm Will this settle it?

    Aero Highwayman fitting advice needed

    Yes. I guess meassuring arms is no good here. Just keep in mind that around 62 cm is good. The meassurements done right now Taken with a t-shirt and a sweater: Pit to pit 50cm Shoulders 48cm
