What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Tom71]

I’ve been looking at some of the cheaper B-10s. Bronson, Bob Dong, used Aeros and Ricksons. Don’t want to spend a ton on this kind of jacket; and they are all tagged sizes not customs; so I figure no need to go big on them. Just haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Sounds like you’re really liking yours which is definitely swaying me.

Yes, be swayed!

Whenever I decided on a military jacket, I didn´t regret it. I have an A-2, M-422A and an N1. All a pleasure to wear, good for layering and easy to mix with the rest of the outfit. Plus, they have been inspiration for so many civililan jackets, that they never look out of place.

Schott makes some great nylon flight jackets. Really insulated too. Some of my warmest jackets. I'll take a picture of the one I'm wearing today because I'm going hiking and weather is a little wet for once in Los Angeles.

In the meantime. This might look familiar to you. Leather starting to drape more. It's still a little bit baggy in the mid section around the pocket area, which blows my mind because of the measurements. But I'm starting to like more and more.

Aero B10. Nice and warm, fluffy alpaca lining, lightweight. This might be my new grab 'n go favorite. Thanks for yet another great jacket @torfjord

Looking good buddy! I agree, the lighter weight is a treat and a nice change from wearing leather. Hope it’ll serve you well

I think it looks great on you! Thanks for the update. Measuring the jacket, I was really surprised myself. It shouldn’t have fit me at all, but did. Theodoros‘ magic touch, no doubt.

Flawless outfit. Every single detail of the attire and the posture oozes cool. Looking forward to many more pix.

Trying to capture the "teacore" of this Vicenza Ridley. It's there but just starting to peak through. Though I would try the grey sky, muted sunshine today. It's there just hard to capture.

Great to see this again, that collar though. . .

@dwilson How do you find the sizing on those Flat Head shirts? I asked sellers a few times and the measurements given were all over the place

Had my third kid a couple weeks ago- here’s number two with me and my Schott 375 Roughout

So far I've bought all the items from an individual seller (seems like he must have bought out a store that shuttered) and the sizes were all listed there and have so far been accurate.

https://buyee.jp/item/search/seller/amekichi_ishinoshoji

I've also been buying Flat Head stuff for a while. Their shirting generally seems fairly consistent where a 38 fits me if I want to keep it open and a 40 fits me if I want to close it. I took a gamble getting a 38 in the orange dobby short sleeve and its pretty tight but the 40 (in the pic) fits perfect. In general I find Flat Head is mostly consistent with their sizing. A few exceptions are maybe my jacket which is a tagged 38 but fits more like a 40.

-edit-

Also I asked a question a bit ago if Buyee can consolidate Y! Auctions if you buy from an individual seller and they got back to me that they can not. So it kind of ***** having to eat domestic shipping and proxy fees on each one of these shirts. At least they consolidated my international shipping. FedEx also teleported the package here from Japan. The thing left Japan yesterday and was on my doorstep at noon today.
