Buckles are less hassle.
Why?Buckles are less hassle.
Why?
I like garrison style buckle, doesn't have to be square like that, can be one that is more oval, but i like it better than double D, just personal opinion here.
If my measurements are good, it’s all decorative anyway- I shouldn’t need to cinch it up.
Thanks!I think it looks good. Maybe a little less on the shoulders and add a touch to the sleeves- hard to tell with the bulk of the quilting. I would also look into a slightly taller collar.
The Aero looks fantastic, great pick-up!
I think the fits look good. We’re the same size and with thedi i had found the stock small a little too small and stock med a little too big.

How about a brief cheat sheet on the various tanning processes properties
Thedi CR fit questions:
I'll try to keep it short (though after lurking for awhile temped to ramble and ask a lot).
Ordering a custom Thedi cafe racer through Thurston Bros. and would like help regarding fit. Just received the fit jacket - pics below. (I will ultimately be going with a pattern without the quilting, just using the Phenix for fit)
Also want to thank for all the advice I've gleaned thus far; saved a lot of guesswork by acquiring some "fit" jackets over the past year or so...and came across someone trying to unload a Premiere Highwayman for a decent price. Admittedly is nicer and more expensive than what I thought I would end up with - lucky to have an understanding wife. (pics of that below as well since the Aero's measurements are slightly different than the fit jacket)
I'm 5'9", 38" chest, pre-pandemic/pre-fatherhood wore 29X32 jeans though should maybe start buying some 32X32's
Apologies for picture quality, it's late here in the midwest. Finally got my little one to bed and this is my window of free time.

Thanks! Very high praise from someone who sure seems to know what 'made for you' should look like - seriously your FL Frankenstein is just awesome.The Thedi looks like a great fit already. If you plan to layer then maybe add 1-2" in the body but if you want a trim jacket then just stick with that jackets measurement and you'll look great in it.
The premier HWM looks like it was made for you and to have it in the blackened brown is a plus! Awesome situation you came to. Congrats.
