    IRVIN NUTS?...the ULTIMATE thread for those who love 'em!

    I own both an AL Irvin and an ELC Irvin 42 pattern and both are very well made. For authenticity it has to be the ELC without a doubt but if you were just looking for a good all round everyday jacket then the AL Irvin would do fine plus it's extremely warm. The only practical downside to the...

    The fit of your A2 fit.

    I prefer the slighty room'er fit myself, I wear a 44 normally but my ELC Star is a 46 which gives me the fit I prefer which is snug on the arms and loose in the body allowing me to wear pretty much what I want underneath in comfort. I also have an ELC house in 44 which fits fine also but is a...

    Blood Diamond

    The movie Blood Diamond.......in a word "FANTASTIC", a must see. DeCaprio is excellent, he must be on a roll with The Departed in 2006 and now this.....what a way to start 2007. :eusa_clap

    Flyboys

    If you are into WW1 movies then have a look at Aces High - Malcolm Macdowell and Blue Max - George Peppard, both excellent movies in my opinion.

    Philip Marlowe starrring...CLIVE OWEN?

    Clive Owen is one of favourite actors, he will have no problem at all playing Marlowe......just hope the screenplay and direction comes up to scratch and it's not another Children of Men as that was, in a word CRAP :eusa_doh:

    opinions on Aero Indian Goatskin A-2

    I got one when Aero were selling them off for £100, I have no problem with the jacket at all apart from the Conmar repro that failed after a couple of months. Sent it back to Aero and they replaced it with a repro Talon without any problems, service was execellent. The jacket is marked as a...
