Aero Maxwell

I got my new Aero Maxwell at the end of last week and it's fantastic! Only a couple modifications to the design, which is a straight yoke on the back, straps on the cuffs like the Route 66, and no chest pocket.
I did have to shorten the arms, because, well, I seem to be built like Fred Flintstone.
Let me know what you think.

Congratulations on your purchase. Fits great. Sleeve length is looking good from here. The Maxwell is very similar to the Teamster, which I own and love to wear in bad weather. That said, mine is a bit longer but that's a question of personal taste, I suppose. Great style anyway.

I also ordered my Maxwell with no chest pocket. The nice thing about my Maxwell is I can wear it with jeans or with a dress shirt, tie, and slacks which I did today. Congratulations on a great acquisition.

I don't know, man... My girlfriend couldn't stand the smell of CXL HH.

I vacillated back and forth between a Maxwell and 1930's HB, both of which are based on the same pattern, but settled on the Maxwell since I often use it in place of a sports coat, although I suppose the 1930's HB would have worked just as well.

For me the only thing I worry about with a Maxwell is the buttons. I just have no familiarity with them. I love the cut tho. Really friggn love it.

The buttons are a nice touch, especially the fish eye buttons on my black veg tanned goatskin Maxwell. Sorry about the marginal IPhone pics.
