    Something old (ish) - 10 months in AL Simmons Bilt

    The Aeronaut is a beauty - Heron on a budget. The capeskin is absolutely superb too - I've had a jacket in Victory capeskin and it's the best cape on the market in my view.

    Shackleton vest

    I picked up a grey wool flannel version of a similar jerkin by Old Town (http://www.old-town.co.uk/products/jerkins_m_f.htm) from EBay. One of my best Old Town purchases - it's been in virtually constant use ever since, so warm and practical as a layer over lighter jackets or thick jumpers.

    Reproduction Anj-3 jacket spec questions

    I've owned a couple of original mil spec AN-J-3 jackets (unlabelled as ever so unsure of the makers) and a civilian 'AN-J-3' by McGregor Sportswear/Doniger from the 1940s. One mil spec jacket and the McGregor did not have epaulettes (as part of the original pattern), the other had more...

    A Fitzrovia jacket in drab sage moleskin from Old Town.

    Goatskin -- any input?

    I tend to prefer goat. Good quality, well (veg) tanned will patinate. I've owned some superb russet Perry Sportswear 23377 A-2 jackets in the past, which had burnished to become almost golden. I currently have a Good Wear Spiewak A-2 in French goat (seal dyed over russet), which should patinate...

    Yes, the pocket does look unusually high.

    Which of these jackets is warmer?

    I find my N-1 is a really versatile winter jacket if you're looking for options.

    New Aero Kradjacke, First Look

    Yes it is. I didn't have a period image to hand, but my point is that it works well in context (where it is. a timeless design).

    New Aero Kradjacke, First Look

    Nah, not for me. I love the original - which would look great in context (like this Lewis Leathers version: http://www.disneyrollergirl.net/wp-content/uploads/Lewis-Leathers-Marcus-Ross-3.jpg as a retro bikers outfit), but for every day wear? I survived the 80s and don't want to go back there...

    Original A2?

    I've not seen an epaulette configuation like that on any of the mil spec jackets depicted in Gary Eastman's book.

    shrinking aero anyone?

    tldnr = too long, did not read (if, like me, you weren't familiar with the terminology). On the other hand, I found it an illuminating post.
