    New Aero Long Half Belt - Shearling Lined

    Very nice, I've always fancied the LHB myself. I'd probably prefer another inch on the sleeve length, but that's a personal thing. Perfect cold weather jacket, it's a beauty.

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    Yes, this one was a little trim but it was 40" Dale Fashions coat that was really way off, huge shoulder width that swamped me. Managed to sell it on eBay but the next 40" I bought, I made sure to ask for all measurements and it worked out fine - lesson learned.

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    Yes, they were moved about an inch, it doesn't sound a lot but it made a big differnce to the fit, it's now very comfortable to wear. The old stitch marks can just be detected, if you look very closely, but with a bit of a brush they almost disappear.

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    Posted this pic in the 'what jacket are you wearing today' thread but thought it might be of some use here. Paid quite a bit to ship this lovely 38" 1967 Peacoat over the pond but sadly it was a tad snug for comfort. I wasn't sure if moving the buttons would devalue the coat, but after taking...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    It's very rare I show my ugly mug but its difficult to crop your head off with a high collared coat and hey it's Christmas. Beautiful sunny Boxing Day but a keen wind so perfect peacoat weather! This is a 1962 38", which fits well with just a shirt, I have 40" for when it's sweater weather but...

    Has anyone been able to stretch an aero for length?

    Well done, right decision, it had to be done. Everyone has a jacket back length that they know is just perfect for them, you now know yours - result! Good luck with the Grail hunt!

    Has anyone been able to stretch an aero for length?

    I'd say if anything you might loose 1/2" in length with wear. If it's too short now, better to try and send it back while it's still new and unmolested. Sorry for the bad news.

    Julie Leitch 25 years at Aero Leather

    Some might recall some slight issues I had with my Premier 30's halfbelt order :-) Julie got involved and the result was a jacket that was tailored and stitched to perfection. As someone who builds acoustic guitars as a hobby, I appreciate fine work. In the world of leather jacket production...

    Julie Leitch 25 years at Aero Leather

    Just spotted this on Aero's Facebook page, Julie Leitch celebrating 25 years at Aero. Its estimated she's machined 14,000 jackets, I'm surprised she's got any any fingers left! What an achievement though, respect! https://www.facebook.com/aeroleatherclothing/posts/1661146237235449:0
