Fit consultation includes chest circumference evaluation as well as shoulder width and waist circumference recommendations. Additionally, the fit jacket is used to determine custom body and sleeve lengths. All fit recommendations are based on using the fit jacket as a measuring tool for the custom build. Please keep in mind that three customers with the same body measurements will choose three different sizes in the same style (one chooses a tight fit, another prefers a regular fit and the third wants a roomier fit). The fit jacket consultation makes it easy for each customer to get the fit and lengths they desire! It's common knowledge that when Levi Vintage was launched they worked hand-in-hand with Aero in the development of their new project for Levis.These Aero/Levi jackets are now collector's items, selling on eBay for much more that the original retail price. One of the collaboration jackets was a recreation of a Levis' design from the late 1940s and is the most sought after of all the Aero/Levis models. Therefore, Aero has decided to remake the jacket.Over the years, Aero has had many requests from customers to offer this style and Levis finally gave Aero permission to produce their own Aero version!This is quite a complicated jacket and the styling is unique; probably initially designed to be made in Whipcloth rather than leather. The front has a sweeping curve that is top stitched on either side of the seam with a beautifully curved breast pocket set into the seam. The jacket can be worn with lapels or buttoned up to the neck; the back is very fitted with tab and button waist adjustments alongside the half belt. Aero has changed nothing from the original jacket except the lining which was an over-delicate rayon and of course, the label. Like all Aero jackets, the Rockafella can be ordered with a variety of linings, hardware finishes/styles, and thread colors. The jacket can be custom built in a variety of leathers, including Vicenza Italian veg-tanned horsehide, and Goatskin. Interior pockets are also available.
