    What Jacket are you wearing 'this month?'

    Being the coldest - and now even most rainy - month of summer for a decade, I am bloody tempted to dig out my Irvin again.

    WW2 Pilot Training

    My experience is that most first hand accounts written by pilots back then, deals with the selection and the training. So it could be a good place to start. If you are into RAF - as I am - here are a few titles, straight from the hip. (Which means - I do not guarantee there is chapter after...

    Never forget - how can I?

    Snap - and a picture was taken. Just another day in 303 Squadron at Northolt during that hot summer of 1940. Beginning of September. 3 Polish pilots:L to R: Sgt Michal BRZEZOWSKI, Sgt Stefan WOJTOWICZ and Sgt Eugeniusz SZAPOSZNIKOW Smiling rather awkward to the camera or starring at the...

    Leather advice for a very very newbie.

    Nice jacket. And welcome. I would go for Aero as well. They do great work and are very service oriented.

    Will do - but don't wait up. It will be a long time before I let this baby go. Better start looking at e-pay. Just in case. mvh Søren

    Irvin/B3/A2 inspirations... Burberry aviator jackets

    Why don't we face it. These nice, young guys are just in the wrong forum. Nothing wrong with their choice of jackets or what they want to spend on something, which just isn't what it tries to be. We are just too old fashioned to see it. We believe in history, design, stitch by stitch...

    There is function and there is fashion. Sometimes function becomes fashion - I am still waiting for the opposite to happen.

    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    No problem what so ever to buy stuff from e-bay - especially not within the EU. As long as the seller is willing to post to Denmark. Which most are. No taxes, customs etc either. I bought two Aquascutums on e-bay. Piece of cake!

    Cleaning sweat and salt from a hatband

    hello gents. I have been searching and searching for answers, but in vain. Question: When you wear a straw Borsalino - or any hat for that matter - in the summer, it's usually hot. You sweat inside that hat. And the sweat leaves white "salt" marks on the hatband. Is there any way to clean...

    Irvin/B3/A2 inspirations... Burberry aviator jackets

    If I had that kind of money to spend, I WOULD lay my Irvin, Aero everywhere. I could always buy a new one. :)

    Irvin/B3/A2 inspirations... Burberry aviator jackets

    I believe you would. The problem is only that at that amount of money, everybody will believe it's fake. And the second problem: You'll never be able to take it off, hang it somewhere or drop it on the floor in the pub.

    I don't get it! 4795 EUROS - for that amount you can get at least 5 prime quality repro Irvins. This is insane!
