How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

Arrived today - a stock Premiere Highwayman in Jerky HH Black, size 44.

This is my 2nd Aero, I bought a made to order Hooch Hauler around 2 years ago which was made as size 42 but I feel less constricted (especially in the back) by it than this one, not sure if it's the Hauler pattern or the break in.

I like it so far, but definitely feels like a t-shirt only, unzipped kind of jacket.
I found that the jerky HH stretches. At least it did so in my Aero board racer. You should hang in there.

The Premier line all run a markedly neater fit than the regular lines. Typically equivalent to one size down (or two if it's a regular HWM you're comparing). Legend has it that the origin of these was a "tight fit" created for the Japanese market.

The Premier Highwayman is interesting in particular as it is Ken's reinterpretation of how the HWM might have looked had it been a 30s, rather than 50s, design.

Another wool. Condition is iffy but price and style was too attractive.

This red Lee denim trucker was just too fun to pass on. Sufficiently juicy 60’s collar and nice and subtle fading. Might be slightly too big on me though but I’ll find that out shortly.

Really curious to see how you wear it! Hopefully it gets a decent fit. Such a unique jacket will look good even in a less than ideal fit.
