    Aero Irvin jacket on Ebay very interesting!

    Is this a very early Aero Irvin. Except the front buckle and a Talon zip ( from text description) it looks great: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Aero-Leather-Irvin-Flight-Jacket-Fliegerjacke-Lammfell-S-RAF-Royal-Air-Force-/381847839790?hash=item58e7e7a42e:g:6T4AAOSwA3dYKIp3

    Help me date this B3

    IMHO, if you paid less than 70 Euro, its a good buy...If you are looking for accuracy in reproduction of a WW2 B-3 jacket...not that good... Trying to resell it will be a task and might end in a 100% write off or loss...IMHO.

    ALL REPRO R.A.F. Irvin type jackets

    Never hot.... max 35deg C...and dry towelling a B-3 or an Irvin may take days...besides, oiling needs to be done in the very same process...Air drying is the best... bathing temp arround 35deg for approx an hour.

    ALL REPRO R.A.F. Irvin type jackets

    Bath it gently with body temp water, dry it and oil it during and whilst drying...Texture becomes as per ww2 originals and will never crack nor have this muddy topography.
