New from Aero for 2020, but inspired by the early 1950s North American Sporting Jackets.

 

We suggest Goatskin leather for a jacket for the worst of weathers (we chose Goatskin for it’s water shedding properties - rain just runs off the surface). For warmth we suggest lining in quilted rayon, thick and super warm due to the wool wadding backing yet easy to slip on and off due to the silky rayon. Alternative leathers and linings are available however.

 

The pockets are lined heavy Moleskin, again for warmth but also for longevity. Side adjusters allow the waist to be drawn in snuggly and become fully wind resistant while a luxurious Moutton Fur Collar completes the practical and stylish jacket.

 

All in all, we’ve thought of every way to keep the wearer warm and cosy no matter how deep into The Wilderness he wanders.

This jacket is a 1950s inspired design which offers a fit with quite a bit of room around the body which was typical of the more relaxed fitting styles of this era.

The perceived ‘correct’ fit of the 1950s was generally more ‘oversized’ than modern sizing, so we typically recommend either selecting your usual size for this style to achieve the intended ‘1950s’ relaxed fit, although many choose to size down for a more modern fitted look.

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.
