Aero Leather - Half Belt

[twsreynolds]

Thanks to loads of obsessive “research” on this forum I have secured an Aero Leather jacket.

I say “research” because I’m actually not sure if it’s a 30s or 50s half belt, and only know that it is reddish brown horsehide, but have no idea what specific kind.

It’s very nice though! Albeit quite cropped and definitely still very stiff - not sure I’ll ever properly be able to fully lift my arms in it because it fits quite close.

Size 38, I took a bit of a chance on it and think it’s worked out relatively well. Seen here in pic 1 with some orslow super dads in a 2 year wash, but probably more suitable with my SDA 1002’s (the rest of the pics).

Any feedback would be appreciated!

Looks good.. Did you get the 30s or 50s halfbelt? You have body type for 30s

I honestly don’t know! I guess it’s a 30s but the aero measurements info is so spotty I can’t really compare with anything, and the details for the two models are exactly the same as far as I can tell.

I was happy to have a boxier fit, but agreed I think this one, whatever it may be, does fit quite nicely to my inexpert eye.
