B-6 pics wanted

[Bfd70]

Winter is here. The pull for a B-6 is strong (despite loving my N1). Anyone able to share some recent pics of their B-6? Many of the previous thread pictures are blurred by photobucket. Plus it’s been a while since there was an update. Leaning towards an Eastman roughwear but all are considered. All reviews and opinions welcomed as well.

For quick reference.

Aero Redskin B6 (size 40)

Aero Seal B6 (size 38...from when I was skinnier)

Here’s a shot of my Eastman Roughwear B-6:

This was taken a couple years ago when the jacket was brand new. It has seen very little wear since then because I live in a climate where it is too damn warm to make use of it. It is a beautiful jacket though and quite comfortable to wear. Pretty amazing how warm it is considering the light weight.

Thanks for the fast reply guys.
But
Power, I KNOW what all of yours look like. Even in person.
El, that photo is still up and is one of the pics that is selling me on eastman. Lets see it cruising around the bay.

@Boyo , you seem make any jacket look good.

For the Eastman fellas did you all need to opt for long or extra long? The hpa size chart and a discussion with the rep suggests I would need to.

I hear you man, I will try to get some pictures of it out in the sun this weekend.
As far as the sizing I ordered a 46R and it firs great.

 

[Bfd70]

That’s good info. I like to think my arms are more or less regular length. My trepidation regarding a long order is that it is nonreturnable. I’ve never actually seen one inperson and am hesitant to be locked in.

Hello,
this is my B6 jacket, purchased directly from Aeroleather (I live in Naples).
My height (shortness!!!) is 172 cm and my weight varies between 72 and 78 kilograms (depending on my mood and hunger).
My B6 is size 38, back length 25" and sleeve length 25".
For reference I own a size 40 Aero Premier Half Belt, back length 24.5 "and sleeve length 25.75".
Here are some fit pics.
I hope I have helped you.
Vezio.

Thanks Vesio. I’ve always liked that balcony shot.

Ha! I stumbled on this thread while preparing to post pics of my new to me via @58panheadfan. I have no recollection of starting it. Anyhow, four years later and i finally got my b6. I couldn’t be happier. The fit wouldn’t be better if it was custom made with me standing in the shop. The leather is gorgeous. Of vital importance is the fleece length, nice and short per original spec which keeps it from looking like an Old St. Nick leather puffer jacket. Hurry up autumn, i’ve got an eastman roughwear to wear.

I didn't know this thread before (or I forgot )
Here is also a picture donation from me.

Congratulations @Bfd70!
They say that good things come to those who you waited a long time for this jacket. It looks great!
