    Famous People in Flight Jackets

    ^ ^^ In another thread a while back, perhaps in this thread, we talked about flights suits that had been cut down into lightweight flight jackets with knits added sometimes. That could be what Pickins is wearing. He's definitely not wearing one of the classic nylon jackets.

    Vintage Photos of Leather Jackets

    ^ Oh that's a great photo, do you know the date? Looks like the guy in the shearing is wearing LL Bean moccs or maybe Topsiders, but not sure when those were designed so maybe not... very weird.

    USAF N-3B parkas - Let's talk about them!!

    Great, thanks! That's valuable since one can gauge sizing somewhat (and in my case I can see from your detailed description and measurements that neither would parka work for me).

    Coldest Weather I've been in

    There's something about being on or near water that makes the cold feel worse, to me at least. It must be the damp. I'll take dry cold anyday!

    Coldest Weather I've been in

    Here in SoOnt we've had that wind chill too, for three weeks or so. Even when it's just barely below freezing it makes it feel a helluva lot colder. Today though, it's +6C here and it just stopped raining, which made the snow a huge sloppy mess. It's like living in a Slushy!

    Coldest Weather I've been in

    Yeah it was only -15C but the wind chilll doubled that (downwards). I saw roughly -35 a couple times in the early 1990s but never since and I don't think we will again. Useless Trivia Time: As I like to remind everyone, -40 is where the C and F scales match!!

    N-1 Deck jacket that won’t break the bank. Help!

    They're also selling the navy blue version, which I think would be more "wearable" out-and-about than the olive drab version: https://www.atthefrontshop.com/1st_Model_WWII_Navy_Deck_Jacket_p/usnd1m.htm

    Indiana Jones V

    Would that be so bad?? He would be wearing a trucker hat, t-shirt with different coloured sleeves, painted-on jeans, and dirty white sneakers...
