This jacket is a test model of the 1938 Aero pattern. The design is very common-sense and comfortable, and it looks great when worn. The jacket has only been worn for about an hour, so it's in near-new condition. The leather is from Horween, and it's a tiny bit lighter in weight and softer than Shinki's horsehide. The color is a cross between seal brown and russet brown, with a fantastic finish that ages well over time.

This jacket is fitted with a reproduction Waldes No.7 riveted zipper, vintage United Carr Anzo snaps, and has the collar hooks applied as were done before 1941—sewn into the jacket, not riveted.

A very well preserved original can be seen in this blog entry from BerBerJin, in Japan:

This jacket will ideally fit a person who is 5'10" to 6'1", with a chest circumference of 42-43", and weight of 180-205 pounds.
