Aero Cafe Racer Without Bi-Swing Back (Shoulder Gussets) -- Good Idea?
I’ve owned three Aero Sheene jackets. These are the cafe racer, plus a collar, so exactly what you’re looking at. one has gussets & the two others did not. In my experience, there’s no discernible difference if overall fit. if anything, the gussets add thickness where the leather doubles up...- dan_t

Aero Cafe Racer Without Bi-Swing Back (Shoulder Gussets) -- Good Idea?
Have you had a chat to the team at Aero? Honestly, this is the best place to start - they know their patterns better than anyone ;-) Or alternately, contact @Carrie @ Thurston Bros. and have a chat. Carrie is on your side of the world & can get a fit jacket to you in no time at all.- dan_t

Custom Aero A1 in Tobacco Badalassi
The difference between the indoors & outdoors shots are quite notable. The outdoor shots have a much richer colour palette. More depth & redish tones. which is closer to reality?- dan_t

Aero J-100 Board Racer; another VERY happy customer
The requested measurements were; Shoulder 19” P2P 23” Sleeve 26” Back 27” As for the leather specs, only Holly / Aero could really comment. It’s certainly their CXLFQHH product, just MUCH more fun to wear. I really think it should be added as an option. Honestly, ready to wear right out of the...- dan_t

Aero J-100 Board Racer; another VERY happy customer
I think you’d be pleasantly surprised. I also have 2 Sheene’s at present & have sold another one on. This style is just such a different cut. There’s no need to add anything to the body to get a comfortable fit. And the final product is still slim fitting. just size up & double check the other...- dan_t

Aero J-100 Board Racer; another VERY happy customer
It’s interesting, I was thinking something similar about the sleeve length too. Then I realised that they’re just fine. This style has the sleeves cut very slim. If I undo the zips, they fall another inch or so to just above my thumb. They’re only riding near the wrist due to the zips being done...- dan_t

Aero J-100 Board Racer; another VERY happy customer
Colour? Simply black. It just happens to be a stunning black hide. Perfectly malleable, perfectly weighted, wonderfully grained. I'm approximately 6' 2" & have a chest around 43", but practically always wear a sized 42 jacket. Weight.... hmmm more that it should be :-(- dan_t

This one has a 27” back. Certainly long enough for my tastes.- dan_t

Aero J-100 Board Racer; another VERY happy customer
The latest custom Aero has arrived. I've played around with the Aero cafe racer pattern across 3 jackets now & frankly haven't found 'the one'. The cut is just slightly not suited to my shape. Enter the Board Racer..... This is Aero's stock-standard Board Racer pattern (length ordered to fit)...- dan_t

do you dare to commit to wear a single jacket for a month through all your waking hours?
Just love the idea. Although most of my jackets wouldn’t see 12 hours wear in a year...... Weekend wear only, over winter which amounts to about maybe 8 weeks here in Sydney. Currently have 6 leather jackets & have no idea why.- dan_t

Aero Premier HWY - Guidance needed
In all honesty @blaupulp , spend some time searching Thurston Bro's thread here & look for "Aero Seven" (search exactly as I've just typed it, including the " "). There are tons of examples. I think you'll achieve the look you want, but with the pattern that will be very complementary & aligned...- dan_t

Aero Premier HWY - Guidance needed
If you want a Highwayman, then this is pretty close to perfect. If you want a slim-fit casual civilian jacket, then either get a Sheene (cafe racer base) or a Seven (board racer base). This is how the highwayman is - it's just a boxy 50's design, even in the premier cut. Stuffing around with...- dan_t

Yoke or no yoke
It’s actually a heavily modified Aero Sunburst. Probably my most comfortable jacket to be honest. Original post about it here; https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/aero-modified-sunburst.82086/- dan_t
