@Giles:

…...Get yours weeks in advance of general release.....

Is that an indication of when these might be available?

(If I was on QI, I think the klaxon would be going off and the big screen would be flashing now    )

[Giles]

What will hold things up is the patches.  A sample is being made at the moment, then I get a shed load made.  think the patches will take about 4 weeks to get to me.  I'll then start taking orders, smallish deposit required.  But I have not discussed with Will@Aero his ability to knock them out.  Will do that tomorrow…..

Thanks G, I'm already saving

sweet jacket….  I was checking this out a while back when browsing aero's website.  The IH patches will take it over the top.  I think my number is 256

@Giles:

42 Long.  My default Aero size…...

This is probably a noob question. A long time ago Amanda at Aero gave me the following instruction to determine size.  How did you determine 42L especially the L part?  I think I would be a long for sure I got monkey arms.

Chest relaxed
Chest expanded (breathe in)
Waist
Stomach
Taken over what you are most likely to wear under the jacket

Love this jacket!! so cool!! I was also checking out the Happy Days and the A2.

[Giles]

Because I always take 42L with Aero!!!  I tried on a 42R once and it was not long enough.  I normally take an L sometimes an XL in IH - work it out from there.

If you buy an Aero leather jacket through me, I supply a comprehensive sizing form to complete.

@Seul:

Guys: if you wanna know what your number is please just go to your profile and check the link in your browser… Last digits = your profile #.

AM I 252?

[gbougard]

I hate to sound like a dickhead, but I'd LOVE a varsity jacket 100% melton wool, ie without leather sleeves.

[Giles]

Yes

[Seul]

Hmmm… How much pimping can we do?.. I'd like an all black version... Black IH patch, black '90' on sleeves, black IRON HEART capitals on the back, black stitching... 

[Giles]

They will come with the standard patch on the front. That will not change.  We will supply and apply matching colour numerals to the arm, if you wish.

If you want anything else done, you source the patches and either send them in for us to apply or you apply them yourself.

10-4.

[Giles]

So here we have the one I made for Mme B but I think somewehere along the line things got mixed up.  This is only marginally too small for me…..Doh

Shoulder 19.75
Length 26.00
P2P 24.00
Arm 24.50

Mme B is normally a small in Iron Heart work shirts, the varsity was probably 1.5 inches two wide on the shoulder and an inch long in the arms.  She could probably get away with an XS (but she has a bust…...).....

We can buy any Aero through you? not just the IH collabs…... Done I will get my horsehide through you.  Can you email me the comprehensive thing.

[Giles]

Will do….

[TinMan]

Thanks G…. will long be an option for the IH-Var?  I am pretty sure my old monkey suit was long.  I know the sleeve length on my XL TWHRII is perfect.  I think its 27''  I will measure.

[Giles]

Long, short, fat, thin sure, we don't mind….

[urbanwoodsman]

I don't think we're a similar size G but if the P2P is 24in that would fit me. Is it really like a XXXL? If so I want it.

[riffblaster general]

is making the bottom of the jacket a "coach" jacket opening an option?  the reason i never wear varsity jackets is because of the elastic bottoms.

[Giles]

Lemme think….
