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

[Tark]

HPA shipped the Eastman Ostmann in black I ordered back in January... Currently it's stuck in a warehouse in Ontario since Oct 3. Most expensive I've spent on a leather jacket and my first go at a non-knit cuffs and waistband style

Jacket itch came around and so I decided to try out this waxed Type 2 from the Chinese market (not sure if Cidu is the actual company that makes these). @Marc mndt tipped me off to these when he made a Type II post way back in January. Hopefully I get the right size and color, haha.

I do like that.

I do like that.

Thanks, it’s got a little wear but I think it’ll clean up some.

My phone lit up with notifications today. All of them from DHL that a shipment has left Aero Leather and will be delivered to my office on Friday*. Stay tuned!

*Unless DHL does what they did last time. I watched them drive right by my building around 3:30pm. A moment later, “Business closed” appeared on tracking and I had to pick up the package at their office the next day. Hopefully they’ll deliver to my office this time.

DHL came through and delivered a day early. I once again own an Aero B-6!

I grabbed this off their stock page. Has a small scratch on the left shoulder but otherwise is pristine. Due to the scratch the jacket was nicely discounted.

Fit is great except for a smidge of tightness around my stomach. The shearling is as soft as can be. I almost forgot that B6 shearling is shorter than the B3. This is a difference I happily welcome for cooler, but not frigid, weather.

I’m usually smiling in my pics. But this time I couldn’t tell if my phone was capturing it or not. Hence my lack of smile in one of them haha.

Knew it!

Knew it!

Imagine the day I buy something non-shearling from Aero. Lol

Did you sell the redskin?

Did you sell the redskin?

I did. I sold it to another TFL member. Trying to thin out the closet…and you can see how well that is going.

An impulsive decision this morning:

Where would the RAF pilots have kept their stuff? keys, pocket watch, notebook and pen...etc.?

I love these jackets, but ideally you need a utility vest to wear under it for all your stuff

I have everything in my pockets of the pants.

They wore the Irvin on top of their full uniforms. Incidentally, this is a detail that they maintained in Dunkirk, even though you don't see a certain actor's character's uniform underneath his Irvin.

Next level 'wearing the snot out of your jacket '

Aged sheepskin looks pretty cool

Nothing right now, but I'm itchin' for another wool piece or two.
I'm gonna be ordering another vest from C&C sutlery out of Idaho, and I'm looking for another wool jacket.

I've been looking for one of Johnsons cruisers or NCO types in the awesom green buffalo plaid they did, but they just never pop up in my size.

I can get away with a medium ( my Woolrich is a medium) but ideally I'd like to try a more proper fitting small.
