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

    The jacket has been made today and will be shiped with UPS tomorrow. I guess I will hold it in my hands and wear it by the end of the week. I'm so looking forward to this. :)

    Luftwaffe - Arado M1

    Thanks for the compliments and yes, I know the hooded sweatshirt does not go well with that jacket, but I was dressed to keep warm that night (it get's kind of cold in November with the backyard/garden door and 1 window open to get at least a portion of all the cigar smoke out that 30 people...

    Luftwaffe - Arado M1

    The other 3 pictures just arrived. If I'm ever going to order one of these I guess I'll go for a size 42 with the arm and body length of the size 44. I was wearing a real thick hooded sweatshirt underneath and it was not tight at all. :eeek:

    Luftwaffe - Arado M1

    Original-fliegerjacken.de sells a Luftwaffe jacket whitch they call Arado and that is made from Aero Leathers. I am thinking about geting one of these for at least 6 month now (yes I know, I just ordered a A2 38-1711-P [huh] ). The main reason for me to like this jacket so much are the fabulous...

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

    Gancho's jacket is made from regular fqhh as well and in my eyes it is a real beauty. That's the reason I went this way. Most hh A2s I've seen look nice, but lack the spezial look that fqhh gets after regular wear. That this will be one very heavy A2 doesn't bother me, since I'm used to heavy...

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

    OK, I've just send Amanda a load of pictures and measurements, told her to work her magic for me and confirmed my order for this A2 38-1711-P made of brown fqhh with mid brown knit. Now I feel strangely nervous. :D

    I guess you are right. When I get home I'll send the pictures and meassurements taken from the jackets above to Amanda and tell her to work her magic. @coffe The BR jacket is one of my favorites. More pictures of it can be found here...

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

    OK, so I took pictures and measurements again this morning, just before I had to go to work (my wife thinks I'm nuts and she's right, I guess :) ) On the left you see the back of my Vanson Model B size 44. It measures 63,5 cm / 25". On the right you see another backshot of the BR jacket (size...

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

    I finaly wrote Amanda about the back length and she told me I should just measure a jacket that I am comfortable with and give them the measurement. I think I'll take the back length of this old Banana Republic jacket. It seems to be a little bit longer then Olli's 38-1711, but still does not...

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

    Thanks for the feedback everybody. If the 38-1711 realy runs that small a size 46 migth actually work. Jan, do you know if Olli's jacket had some body length added or was it a total costum job, so that the usual rules don't apply? I ask because his jacket barely covers the belt (and he's not...

    "New" 1967 Peacoat - return it or keep it?

    I would recomend that you study the sticky about peacoat dating in this forum. It includes a part about the proper sizing and helped me a lot. With a 39" chest size I guess a size 38 peacoat would fit much better than a size 40. I have a 44" chest, my peacoat is size 42 and leaves enough room to...
