    Poll: Favourite Style of jacket

    I voted Sheepskin military Jackets. I'm reading very accurate polls in the general cross section of what I've seen here in this forum in my getting to know some of the fellow members, and their tastes in style a little better. Seeing no love for Nylon is only a matter of it being a second...

    Is it possible to put new sheene on older jacket?

    I'd say Leave it...you're Jacket gets a time worn patina that makes it what it is...and you need to pride your jacket IMO on the character and wear. But that's me...if the leather is dry, you can oil it...but otherwise Leave it alone. if you want a new Jacket look...get a new Jacket. Leather...

    Sizing of B-3 Shearlings, specifically Avirex

    I totally have forgotten my measurements, I checked the Jacket..It's a 1986 Avirex B-3 In size 46. I'm 6,1" and rough estimate about 185 pounds, This Jacket fits me pretty good I would say. Don't know, I'll take my measurements tomorrow, I've got a headache tonight dear.

    The TFL Effect

    My place is proof there's a shortage of people thinking this way...I keep cool vintage stuff...my place is a museum. It's some kind of recessive Gene or something? do you think?

    Just got my new AERO B3

    NO I disagree, I think it's a PERFECT FLAWLESS fit on you!!! awesome jacket!!! Really good cut man! You're not swimming in it, If it's a bit roomy you Layer up and wear a nice military Scarf. Once it breaks in you'll have a lot more room though I'm sure when the fleece packs down a bit more...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    This I believe was from two falls ago, The last G-1 I bought myself from Ebay. The *Look* for me then (which ALWAYS changes) was the Hand knitted WWII wool Cap, Yes Just like the GI's of the day who's mothers were loving enough of their sons overseas to make them something to keep them warm...

    Got my first B-3 Jacket today. Looking for fit advice. How should it fit?

    If it's too short, it's too short. If it's a serious thing you can't live with, do what you have to do... or live with it as-is right? If it was my money, I could fully sympathize. I'm with you all, which is why I'm having trouble fronting cash for a B-3 myself. Having something *perfect*...

    Got my first B-3 Jacket today. Looking for fit advice. How should it fit?

    Short is OK. but it is NOT ok if the Jacket is too tight on you etc...I do like mine to be a little longer, the front should be a tad shorter at the bottom to give the back more room to breathe, as you might be sitting down in a cockpit for example...Short at the front, longer at the back...

    Sizing of B-3 Shearlings, specifically Avirex

    I have an Avirex B-3 from about 1986. Where does your Jacket not fit correctly? sleeves too long? Waist too big? the hard part I ALWAYS find for a B-3 is to make the shoulders fit correctly and that takes the right shirt underneath sometimes, a scarf too. Otherwise the sleeves tend to droop...
