Essentially new, this comes complete with all of its original Aero paperwork! And, yes, it does stand up on its own! https://static.**.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t4c/1/16/1f642.png

JUST $450 shipped in the CONUS! I ship with signature confirmation, and pack things REALLY well! :)

I'm also interested in TRADES for Lost Worlds in 42 or 44 (some crosszips) especially in black, possibly with cash from me to balance things out!

Tagged 40, but would be more suitable for 42 or 44.

Measurements:


Chest: 24 1/2
Sleeve: 28
Shoulder: 19
Length: 26 1/4 (from bottom of collar)
Hem: 20 1/2

Measurements on Aero's production notes:

Sleeve: 28.5
Length: 27.25
ADD 0.75" to each side (1.5" total)

This GORGEOUS jacket was made on 20th January, 2020... and made it to its original owner (a Lounger) in the United States just before Covid hit! He tried it on, it didn't work out, and he sold it on to AeroFan who just beat me to it... and then I acquired it from him. I WANT this to fit so badly, but it's just too big in the chest for me, so it's only been tried on a few times.

So, it's here.... essentially a BRAND NEW AERO BOOTLEGGER, complete with all of its original paperwork, at a fraction of what it would now cost!

THIS JACKET:

This is GORGEOUS! It comes with several important upgrades: It is made from Tumbled Brown CXL horsehide, it features a Lochcarron tartan wool lining, and it has a deep interior pocket. All of these incur substantial upcharges from Aero.

While the body is lined with Lochcarron tartan, the sleeves are lined with olive sateen cloth for ease of wear, and to minimize the possibility of snagging. The main zipper is an antique brass Talon.

Aero made the jacket with extra material added to each side (hence the chest measurement) and it features a Western style yoke at the rear--a feature then available typically with the Premier Highwayman. It has no epaulets for a sleek appearance, and olive drab stitching.

It features zipped sleeves, like a cafe racer.

This jacket is UNWORN except to be tried on. Since it's made from Tumbled CXL it does have a couple of minor rubs on it, as shown--these could have been there when it came from Aero.

This jacket comes complete with its original paperwork from Aero.

I suspect that this won't last long, so move quickly if this is your size!

Information on the Bootlegger from Aero's website:

• 1930 style in a 1950s cut
• Relaxed fit
• Cross zip front with lapels
• Military style epaulettes
• Angled chest pocket
• Two deep moleskin lined hand-warmer pockets
• Half belt back
• Side adjusting straps


The superb Bootlegger jacket is easily mistaken for a late 20's early 30's original all purpose Flight Jacket. First introduced in 1988, this jacket is the inspiration for our full "Prohibition" series, replicating the classic jackets of that turbulent period in US history.

This cross between an early flight jacket and a motorcycle jacket represents a vintage styling no longer made by any other manufacturer. The front zipper is fitted at an angle giving a generous wind flap with an extra button fastening at the neck, three deep pockets (only the ****** pocket of which is fitted with a zipper), military style epaulettes, adjustable strap and buckle at the waist, stitched on 'Cossack' style half belt at back.

This classic was built to be used in all kinds of activity in any weather, and shrug off the hardest of wear.

Chest: 24 1/2

Measurements on Aero's production notes:

I'm so bummed that I don't have the coin at the moment, but I am pretty sure there's gonna be a "Sold" post before day's end! A generously priced opportunity for those with the money and measurements. GLWS, sir!
