    Choosing the jacket

    Maybe I should look for pilot-like jackets outside the military reproduction companies, just in regular ones. Any ideas of brands with high quality shearlings?

    Choosing the jacket

    Talked to the guy for whom the jacket is intended. He said, most imp for him is that the jacket is made from high-quality materials and with correct template (for ex, if you lift your arm, other part of the jacket should stay intact and not move together with the sleeve,. Also, if you lay the...

    Choosing the jacket

    Thank you. I saw people who were not quite happy with 5*, they said smth about colours not as described, etc. Of course, for such price its normal but the guy prefers to pay more but not get any problems afterwards. Though the timing and communication is also very important, of course. It looked...

    Choosing the jacket

    Wrote directly. From one came out-of-office auto-reply, from the other nothing so far. Will wait. BTW, Thurston says Aero does not allow any modifications to their military jackets but on the Aero page they offer different customisations, like thicker lining, zipper choice, etc..

    Choosing the jacket

    Thank you for info. They offer however anj-4 in mouton...How warm is this type of jacket? On the photos it looks warmer than B-6. Fast - no. Time is not limited. But if you pay big money and then wait for reply for a week, that will be distressing that person for whom the jacket is intended (...

    Choosing the jacket

    Then the question is which hide types get stiff in cold and which - dont?

    Choosing the jacket

    Then its not my choice(((( You see, he needs the jacket for his soul as we say in Russia. So it should be really comfortable without any strong necessity to layer etc. So, if the leather will get stiff, and we have up to <-20C (not always but can be), then, I guess, some B-3 The problem is that...

    Y2 leather, found my next leather jacket.

    Oh God! Too bad for custom made orders....what do you mean directly? Is there a way to do it indirectly? Or maybe someone knows where to buy them I mean the dealers? I checked the list on their website but there is not much and I need help with sizing..

    Choosing the jacket

    Thank you so much for this info!! TheN-1 is awsome! It could well be an option. The only thing, I doubt it woukd be sufficient for Russian winter. Only if I manage to get it modified with more insulation. Im asking Y'2 about this now, Im in love with their leathers..
