    Here's a pic of that deck jacket on Marvin. There appears to be a stencil on the back. Here's the image source, which has a bunch of other "on set" photos from the filming of Point Blank, plus a long essay which fans will want to read...

    other favorite military jacket

    More pics of IDF jackets. These are really great jackets, the shells wear in nicely like old jeans and the torso is a bit longer than USAF MA-1 jackets. I've been wearing a blue one this year quite a bit, and I think I'll get a green one too (I sold the previous green one I had since the fit was...

    Why don't you buy one and chop it up yourself? No sane person would do this.

    USN Deck Jackets period / repop

    Oh that sounds great, much more practical than the CWU stuff, or anything else that isn't combat gear. I've got too much stuff right now, but maybe I'll keep an eye out for one. Thanks. It must be quite a useful jacket for you in your job.

    ^ I was looking for one of those last year but never found one. The collar looks like it would be a hundred times more useful than the tiny collar on the CWU 45P jackets, plus the black(?) would be more wearable in daily life. Envious!

    ^ Great pics, thanks. That's one of my favourite movies but I never realized what sort of jacket he was wearing in that scene.

    Are you saying you're not pulling all the time? To be honest, there are some erotic sub-cultures that would be into that look... I'm with you on this. Many people think that all old stuff is be definition awesome, except much of it isn't. There's a group out there that have fetishized the...

    Good thread, thanks. Does anyone have any more related anecdotes?

    She no doubt sees an obsession with jackets as a small price to pay for having you home on Friday and Saturday night and not out with the boys drinking and skirt chasing, ha ha

    This winter's 'big thing' with the kids?

    This is an important point. It's often the same with footwear, different fits/sizes in the 'east'. When I look at myself and other men I always wonder what women see in us, and I think that if I was a woman I'd be a lesbian for sure. But that misses the point, because straight* women are 100%...

    To be honest, sometimes when I see someone in shearling I think this. Like bow ties on men younger than age 55, I think shearling isn't a good idea for everyone.

    That's a sea change from ye olden dayes, of course, like the 1980s, when a half-decent leather jacket made any man more desirable to women.

    That's the way one has to look at these things. You had some good times, but they don't last, and at some point it's time for someone else to have some good times. I'm talking about the jacket, of course...

    MA-1 Flight jacket

    It comes down to the standards insisted on (or not insisted on) by the brand, as others have stated. From what I have seen Alpha is insisting on good standards from its Chinese suppliers. I agree other companies apparently impose no standards! I have a mid-50s N3B and the...
