This new Aero jacket is a button up version of our legendary "Bootlegger" although historically the button up version would have pre dated the Bootlegger. With this in mind it seemed appropriate to name this jacket "Moonshiner", after all a Moonshiner would have come before a Bootlegger in the Prohibition dateline!
Styling is firmly based in the early 1920s when two hand warmer pockets were most typical of this style of jacket, we've used vintage style Corozo buttons for the front and cuff closure, a classic period style bi-swing back. We've raised the armhole slightly and narrowed the sleeve slightly in comparison to the Bootlegger, in keeping with the slimmer cut of the earlier jackets.
This jacket is a 1920s inspired design in a 1950’s cut so offers more room in the chest and shoulders with a taper to the hem.
Additionally, the jacket’s side adjusters can be cinched in at the natural waist to provide a more fitted look around the waist while retaining room around the chest and shoulders, or alternatively, they can be loosened out to provide more room for layering.
We typically recommend selecting your usual size for this style (the one closest to your relaxed chest measurement) to achieve the intended fit. We very rarely recommend sizing up.
