Aero Premier Highwayman Fit

[DevinV]

Hey guys,
Thought I’d post my first custom from Aero, a PH in Badalassi Chestnut, alpaca lining.
Been wearing it for a few weeks, squeaking less now.
I don’t tend to layer. What do you guys think?
I’m 5’7.

A bit wide at the hem but pretty damn nice fit otherwise, congratulations on your beautiful jacket! How's the alpaca lining? That's the most interesting aspect for me.

Thank you!
The alpaca feels soft, quite nice with a t-shirt. Don't particularly feel excessively warm either. Expect when it gets colder, I’l know better.
I’ll try with the cinches in to see how that feels at the hem.
Thanks

Looks good! I don´t mind the HWM being worn with a bit of give everywhere. It certainly doesn´t look too big.

Man, even looking at that lining makes me break into a sweat... .

Thank you mate!

Well done, congratulations! I like how it fits you, but then again I like a bit of room in my outer wear.

Perfect fit.

Excellent! Wear it and enjoy it!

Seems excellent, and the Badalassi chestnut is gorgeous (That color seen in person tempted me, even if in the end I decided on russet Badalassi for my jacket).

Awesome also the lining, perfect match! So It isn't itching?

Good fit! Considering the Highwayman is an odd fit on some, you did great on your first Aero custom jacket.

Hey! Thanks, no itching from the lining, then again it’s not that dry where we are.
I almost went for the russet then saw this in person!

Ok thanks.

I would want at least one jacket for every different Badalassi color ahaha

this is a dangerous hobby!

I usually wear with a tighter waist, just enough that my tee shirt almost wrinkles. But great fit!

Looks great and seems like you might have a little room for layering. How is your mobility in the shoulders?

I should have sized up on mine. I got my usual size and paid for wider shoulders. My jacket looks great and perfectly fitted but it still feels too tight in the shoulders.

Thank you..
I sized up at the shoulders too. 1inch (18.75)over their norm, think Holly @ Aero requested a pattern alteration at the shoulders for me. All other measurements are near their standard. Doesn't feel restrictive to me, at least not now. The Badalassi seems to have softened up a bit. It did feel like cardboard and a little stiff initially. Still smells great!

Nice jacket. Out of interest, would Aero allow you to swap to a zip sleeve on the Premier Highwayman?

Hey, thanks!
I’m really not sure, I suppose its possible for their pattern dept to add a zip cuff (similar to a cafe racer).. Holly @ Aero would probably be best person to ask..

 

[Aloysius]

It's not at all wide at the hem.

 

[Bennarion]

The jacket fits perfectly. It couldn't be better. Congratulations
