    My Aero Leather A-2

    Looks very good. :eusa_clap Glad that the fit worked out with this jacket. It seems sometimes it takes a 2nd try to get it right.

    My new Aero A2-38-1711-P in FQHH - 2nd (and final) try.

    It is normal brown FQHH. Thanks for all the positive feedback. I think it was realy worth the effort to have Aero make a completely new jacket, instead of tapering the first one. Now all I need is a temerature drop of 15° C. :eusa_doh::eeek:

    My new Aero A2-38-1711-P in FQHH - 2nd (and final) try.

    After I did send the first jacket back to Aero nearly four weeks ago, because the meassurements where wrong, today was the day that the new jacket arrived. I only wore it for the pictures below so far, because it is almost 30° C around here at the moment and that's not exactly the weather to...

    My new Aero A2-38-1711-P in FQHH

    After exchanging some more emails with Amanda this will be exactly our way to proceed. We both recheck the meassurements and then Aero will make me a new jacket, that will hopefully fit better this time.

    My new Aero A2-38-1711-P in FQHH

    @HighandDry Very nice jacket. That is the fit that I was expecting. @jksu We didn't talk about the costs of the alteration yet, but since the mistake clearly happened on Aero's side I don't think they will charge anything for it.

    My new Aero A2-38-1711-P in FQHH

    There is news about this jacket. I did send it back to Aero today. Ever since I put it on for the first time I had the nagging feeling, that the jacket is to big or better said to roomy. The 38-1711-P is supposed to be a very trim fiting jacket and the jacket I got, as beautiful as it is...

    Aero's A2 apprentise made jacket, should i buy it?

    I would love to see some pics, especial when worn to see how it fits. I've got the same model 3 weeks ago and I can't shake the feeling that mine turned out a little big.

    Aero A2 38-1711-P sizing question - need help.

    OK, I measures the jacket zipped up, lying flat on the back. The pit to pit measurement is 64 cm / 25". Isn't it a size 50 then? I guess I'll realy have to contact Amanda about it.

    My new Aero A2-38-1711-P in FQHH

    Hi Johannes, as far as I understood it we took the standard size 46 jacked and added a little to the sleeves and body length. I too thought, that the jacket would fit much trimer. But I told Amanda I wanted to be able to wear a medium thick pullover or turtleneck underneath on colder days...

    My new Aero A2-38-1711-P in FQHH

    Today was a very nice and sunny day and my wife took some more pictures during a little walk. The jacket has been worn 2 weeks now and in the sun you can realy see the color and texture of the leather (much better then on the pictures on side one). :cool:

    Windward jackets by Montgomery Ward (and copies)

    I'm not a fan of breast pockets, so I would go with the 2nd design. :)

    Customer experiences with Aero Leather

    My customer experience with Aero has been very good. I ordered my jacket on the November the 7th 2011 and got it on the 16th of March 2012. That's a little more than 4 month for a costum jacket, which is very good in my eyes. The communication with Aero / Amanda was very good as well...

    My new Aero A2-38-1711-P in FQHH

    @ all Thanks for the compliments. @Lungomare I understand your concerns about the leather and historical accuracy, but to be honest, I never cared much for historical accuracy. :) I wanted a Jacket in an A2 design that has a less bulky cut than most A2s I've seen and I love brown FQHH...
