@DudsByDel It's front quarter horse hide. It's heavy but that's what I wanted, you really know you have it on! Agree with you on the zip, could do with being slightly bigger. It feels like it could break quite easily. Aero should offer a choice of either original or a larger one. Seems like an obvious change they could make.

1:45 stiffer even with break in, I always wanted to know this. I know generally people say CX horsehide takes longer to break in than CX steerhide...but I always wonder, if both are broken in, will the horsehide and the steerhide be the same in term of stiffness?..or will the horsehide still be stiffer in the end? I am ordering an Aero, perhaps I will go Steerhide CXL. Only some people say horsehide can last longer, idk if this is true.

@@weaver4907 if you push them to the extreme and wear heavily for a long time you’ll probably end up fairly close, I thought that’s what you were kinda asking. According to regular wear you’ll probably find the steerhide easier wearing, that’s been my experience and that of several folks I’ve interacted with. If the CXL horse jacket you get is well-cut for you it’s not a problem but it can be more of a challenge. For me, I have a wonky shoulder, so fighting against it for the break in was difficult

That Highwayman is very similar to my Schott 689HH which I truly love. Although someone in the comments said that Aero had upgraded the zipper its too bad they had not put a more robust zipper in from the beginning, my 689 has a massive zipper. i like the jacket but I wouldn't buy one because of the zipper issue. Of course a heavier zipper could be installed but that's extra hassle and expense. It looks very good on you, good video!

Del, that is just a great fit on you. Very helpful in understanding the design esthetics of Aero, using patterns that are reminiscent of the era of the originals. Just incredible that you fit so well in a size 36! I agree with you about the relatively small main zipper. I get it that they want to remain faithful to the design, but the reality of zipper failure is a real concern. Perfect example of form over function. A personal pet peeve of mine is a faulty zipper. If it is any reassurance, the fine folks at Thurston Bros. will replace that zipper with a heavier/larger model. I've seen some of their zipper replacement work and it is excellent.

One buddy on FedoraLounge got stuck in his jacket after a few beers trying to put zip it in a sudden rain!

I just received last week a new aero 1930 premier HB, it's stunning. I agree with almost all what you saidf in the video, however i might say that pricing is more about between 900 and 1300 dollars if you include VAT that you have to pay to get it in your country. So it's always more than 1000 dollars what you're gonna pay if you buy a new Jacket.

Very good review. I have had varies of aero over last 15 years.. The inconsistence of measurements even from the same model same tag size can be frustrating. Two highwaymans in same tag size can fit completely differently once put on. And the high arm holes on the premier highwayman do hurt. However if chromexcel FQHH from horween is your leather of choice then aero I believe is the only firm that does it if I am not mistaken..

Spot on review of the Highwayman! We are roughly the same size, I also had a standard HWYM I picked up new for Thurston in a size 36. Being from Thurston, it already had a longer body and sleeve length, which I ultimately found to look too long on me in that style. After selling that one, I picked up the 50s half belt that you ended up buying from me… I found that one a little too short for me. I finally settled on a 40 in a premier and it’s just right for me.. definitely not as comfy as the standard model, but over the years it has become a part of me and wears great. I think that there is a look and style to the original that can’t be beat, though. I’m sure I’ll find another one in the future. That one looks about as good on you as anyone could hope for! I still have yet to handle CXL Steerhide, but I’m thinking about doing a custom Board Racer using it.

@@DudsByDel I wonder if it might be on the stiff side too, but based on the consensus view that it is easier to get along with than the HH, it might be ok. I’ve had 2 Board Racers in Badalassi, and that stuff is relentless! The size 40 I had in Tobacco was exceptionally thick, but the jacket wore great(for a Board Racer). Yes, our paths are funny.. I wish I had taken a straight path to the jackets I love now, and not the expensive path full of $$ loss and regret of the ones we let go!

Great review Del, lots of great information. The zipper on my aero premier highwayman i noticed it right away was rather tiny compared to thedi and my other jackets. Definitely disappointing they don’t consider beefing it up. I also wonder if my movement would be better in just the highwayman and not the premier. It’s definitely my most restrictive jacket still after months of wear.

Funny thing with highwaymen is that i could not find any of them looking good on people until now, you seem to be the first one that that model looks totally right and cool. I guess it is sizing 2 down. I see them sometimes in Germany on old guys and i assume that the guys shrinked with time and always felt a bit jealous of people who own through whole life a nice jacket that ages with them but fit wasn’t right.

If the zipper properly failed, it would be a huge issue. This is slightly too short for you. Other than that, it's a perfect fit. Jackets like this should always be worn with street clothes, especially T-shirts. Nothing wrong with a hoodie underneath. They do not look right with dress shirts. I would like an Aero jacket.

I totally agree with you about Carhartt ruining the Detroit jacket. Luckily I came across some Detroits (old style) that were on sale and picked up one in duck brown and a black one. Shortly after that i found out they had totally changed the design into something quite ugly.

Wasn’t familiar with them til your comment. Looking at their site, jacket looks nice. Seems likely it was made by Golden Bear or possibly Johnson Leathers. Wish they gave a little more info on where the leather is from.

Actually, an XXL it is almost 6 pounds, so if you don't ride a big motorcycle every day, you gonna have a hard time trying to break in this uncomfortable jacket. Before u buy it, carry a 6 pounds backpack all day, and see how it feels!😢

@@patricio3841 weight matters but so does weight distribution. For example my Cal Leather jacket is about 7 pounds and the weight disappears. I had several Aero jackets prior to this one that didn’t work for me due to comfort. This one does. The steerhide is more pliable than the horsehide, even it is heavy. And the cut works better for me.
