    U.S. Border Patrol leather jacket

    That sounds like a cool job, I hope they don't replace you with a robot. I don't have one of these jackets but I see them pop up on e-bay regularly and they look like a really practical variation on the traditional A2/ANJ3 flight jacket configuration. Well done! Looks like many years of...

    MA-1 Flight jacket

    I understand the concern about being labelled a skinhead, but so many people in the UK have buzz cuts that it seems to me kind of silly to worry about it. I imagine you'd have to go about in nylon flight jackets, skinny jeans turned up, wallet chain, and Docs to actually be profiled as a...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    I'm at the stage now where I need to start wearing stuff or get rid of it. Since I won't get much $$ for anything, I need to wear it. I just had a miss with a new overcoat so I have to simply stop for a while. Thinking logically or rationally about it for a moment, hard though that is to do, I...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Not just jackets, but vintage shoes too. There's a bunch of factors behind this but it seems it's mostly due to reduced availability of good hides and the adoption of less polluting tanning processes.

    Famous People in Flight Jackets

    ^ I frigging hate this celebration of youth and freshness and re-boots, which seems to me to be a twisted baby boomer thing, the demographic who still thinks they're 20 somethings even though most are 60 somethings. Hans Olo at that age was in the imperial flight academy, if memory serves, and...

    ALL ORIGINAL Irvin RAF type Jackets - Loving that Wolf in sheeps' clothing!

    Large and loose also allows room for layering. These jackets were intended to be worn in a world which often didn't have heated buildings, never mind heated cockpits!

    I picked up a (not cheap) copy of this film and I'm glad I did: it's very good and I'll watch it again several times. The aircraft porn is great, as is the SAC dark blue nylon flyers jackets porn. The only downside might be in a few places they whip out a shameless promotional message for the...

    65F is too warm for jackets in February

    We get those people here in Canada too, mostly blue collar types doing the "tough guy" thing in winter.
