    Saw that 30's HB on your site but knew it would be a little too long in sleeve and body length!

    But not so good for your shorter American customers!!! (Especially arm length - 5'7"/165Lbs)

    New Aero back designs

    It would be true of the 3-piece back if it was just three pieces of leather sewn together, but it is pleated so there is extra work to make that back. Very nice detail BTW!

    Comparison of Type A-1 jackets (GW and ELC .50 Cal)

    The hide and grain on the GW are just beautiful. I like the longer knits, but prefer the darker color of the ELC knits!

    I have a 2-tone 30's HB on order f/Aero and hope to get it soon!

    New Aero back designs

    Actually, the extra pieces of leather means they can take smaller cuts of leather and just sew them together instead of having to use one larger piece to make the jacket. So this would be a cheaper way to make a jacket!

    New Aero Pioneer in Kudu

    Kind of in-between HB+LHB!

    New Aero Pioneer in Kudu

    That is some nice grain on that hide. Is the leather thick, thin, soft, stiff??

    New Alexanders Halfbelt

    Storm cuffs should be an option, not standard. Most guys dont really want them, but if you do, just add them to your order!

    New Alexanders Halfbelt

    That's not Cossack-ish, that looks like a almost exact copy of a Aero 30's HB/Slimfit!

    Original Gordon & Ferguson M-422A (size 44)

    The one thing I never liked about the repo's was the large oversized collar. The original ones had smaller sized (and G-1's more rounded @-the point) collars. I have a Cockpit Vintage G-1 that looks much more accurate to the originals than most of the more so-called better/High-End jackets!

    I have the Russet goat and it has really nice grain, is light-weight and really durable, a little stiff (but nothing compared to FQHH) and is a great hide. I'm sure you will be happy with yours also!

    Best M-422(a) repro?

    This jacket runs a little small. Iam 5'7" and 165Lbs and have a size 44. I always wear a sweater or sweat-shirt under it and it fits me really well. Whatever your suit size is, I would order one size up unless you want a tight fit!

    Body length seems to be in between a HB and a LHB. Did you order it with a little longer length?

    Jack - What size is it? Give us some stats!

    Best M-422(a) repro?

    Love to see some pics of that GW G-1. I have the Cockpit Vintage G-1 and it's a great jacket!

    Best M-422(a) repro?

    I have just the opposite problem. I always have to get them shortened to fit right! Have an Aero 30's HB ordered w/23.5" sleeve length. Nice to get one I wont have to get tailored!

    New Good Wear "Californian" Ventura

    Finally able to order an Aero

    I ordered a HB with the Waterfront wool pattern(Alpaca lined) and got it in about eight weeks. I have a 2-tone 30's HB ordered in mid August and hope to get it soon!
