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

After getting my red/black plaid HB back from Dena, I immediately ammended my Aero order. Now green/back with dark green Kelpie, Denny and Ken are on board with the tweaks. Mine will have leather standard HWM cuff with storms:

I'm partying with you next St. Patrick's day. I'll bring the corned beef and green beer.

These pullovers/leather shirts that Taubers made were really something special. No one did them or has done them just so perfectly as they did.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

Happy with this. Needed a brown leather jacket, didn’t want to spend a fortune and this came up on the trainee section with the right sleeves and back length. Aero HWM in tumbled brown CXLHH.

Forgot how heavy leather felt, glad I sized up one from my previous HWM. I think this is the heaviest CXL HH I’ve handled. I got to the conclusion that the “size down 2 on HWM” advice is just as misleading as an advice can be. Maybe if you are in between sizes take the smallest but that’s it. Don’t look at the p2p, it’s got very low armholes. No weird vertical creases so far.

Double like! One of the nicest Aero's I've seen. Congrats.

That's the idea fit for HWM, how is the back look? In my experience if front looks good the back usually looks too big.

Thanks too kind! It’s a grab and go/no fuss leather jacket. But I like how it fits. In terms of fit when shopping online you win some and lose some (more!)

Thanks and yes I get what you mean. There is some excess material at the pits probably more visible from the back. It’s the low set armholes combined with the Aero sleeve rotation. My uneducated guess is that it’s a combination of an intentional pattern thing (Boxy 50s cut which I like) and a particular choice of sleeve rotation (I’m not a fan personally).

The back panel is also pretty stiff and not broken in which isn’t helping with the drape.

So here is how it looks on me…

The HWM is such a boxy, finicky fit.

Just wear it and enjoy it!

Yes. SUPERB!!

Arrived today!

Alittle TLC since its arrival this week and this vintage 40's Wolf HH H-B definitely appreciated the attention.

Love the vintage details- original buttons, talon, label, hardware and all.... beautiful HH.

Still just WOWED by this one. TOP SHELF!

Not necessarily a fan of the HWM (for myself), but this is the one I would wear.
Looks great.

Everyone keeps forgetting that it is an 80s pattern marketed as a 50s pattern. Once you accept it for what it is, it looks the part. Well done!
