    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Cuffs are standard length, sleeve length is never gained by simply making cuffs longer !! The jacket will break in, the more your wear it the quicker it will break in, the cuffs will soften and you will feel more comfortable. "The worst your Aero will ever look is the day you get it "
