    **NEWS EXTRA**Good Wear flying jackets take vintage authenticity to new heights!!

    Tadite, I own an Aero Highwayman and to be honest I could not imagine my Ventura in that hide. The Hide is fine for the cut of the Highwayman but in my opinion is way to thick and heavy for a vintage trim half belt. Any hide that John offers would be ideal for any style jacket and the two that...

    **NEWS EXTRA**Good Wear flying jackets take vintage authenticity to new heights!!

    Good Wear Ventura I wanted to post some pics of my Good Wear Ventura I received a few months ago. It is a size 44 and has a comfortable yet trim vintage fit. The jacket was made with John's Japanese red russet HH. The color and finish of this leather is the most luxurious I have seen yet. The...

    **NEWS EXTRA**Good Wear flying jackets take vintage authenticity to new heights!!

    Paddy your RW looks great. My 27752 from John is still virgin, but it should look like yours with one heck of a lot of wear. I recently took delivery of a Ventura in John's red Japanese HH and it is a true work of art.

    Great Large WWII Pic, lots of detail

    I think it is a Roughwear. The pocket flaps and the collar sure looks like a RW 27752. I'm no expert, just a guess.

    New Highwayman

    Which of these do you like the best, the A2s or the Highwayman? (Quote from Jaguar66) The Highwayman is a great jacket and I have always admired the work that Aero does. But my A2's from John at Good Wear are my favorite. What a great hobby:-)

    Thank you all for the nice comments. As far as sizing goes other than having the waist tapered Amanda told me these measurements are for a standard Highwayman size 42. The pits are 25.0, shoulders are 20.0, front length is 22.5, back length is 26.0, and the sleeves at my request are 25.0. Most...

    New Highwayman

    I just took delivery of this highwayman and I am very happy with it. I prefer A2's and vintage style civilian jackets but the Aero Highwayman has been on the wish list for a long time. This is a standard model with a tapered waist. I am very glad I did'nt order the trim sleeves and armholes or I...

    Best leather jacket brands?

    Good Wear Leather is the best in my opinion. Check out their Ventura or Arcaidia. Very nice examples of a vintage jacket. I am not sure when they will be accepting new orders but when they do it will be worth the wait.
