@kronos77 do you have a jacket in the midnight? Is it the same thickness and weight as Aeros other FQHH?
Windflap, if you are planning on riding with it it is necessary. Without it you will get a lot of wind coming in through the zipper, that will make you cold and your back will baloon like crazy.
Don't think "great, it will cool me down" it will just annoy you. Real motorcycle jackets with front vents always have back vents to prevent balooning. Without them it really is a pain.

I've had this in mind for the past few days so decided to test it out on my weekly burn through the city to Bondi Beach for a Sunday morning coffee watching the sun rise.
I wore my "new" Aero cafe Racer and was expecting the wind and ballooning as I hit the cross city tunnel and the bondi overpass but didn't notice a thing, no wind through the front zip, no ballooning of the back. Granted I was only doing about 90, does it only occur at real high speeds?
I have a sample. I am pretty sure it is the same thickness as the other FQHH samples I had, but I don't have the other samples any longer to compare. So a confident yes, to answer your question. Same brown core as others.@kronos77 do you have a jacket in the midnight? Is it the same thickness and weight as Aeros other FQHH?
Jacket length looks good. Are the length of your sleeves a tad bit long? They are creasing a bit.
Yes this was bought off someone else and the sleeves are a bit longer than I would specify. They are good for on the bike but the Sheene will be a casual jacket and not a bike jacket.
