Well, made an offer on a Star Sportswear 7823D contract year 1971 before I see the Field and Stream so end up with this one too. Collar not washed and curled up like most.

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

The jackets are so clean in the first 2 episodes. Even the A-2 worn by the CO of the base looks brand new.

Yeah I think they relied on the filter lens to age things up. Show is difficult to follow too. Wish they just had it written as a long movie...
Lots of jackets in the show though...
I am testing my watered down Angelus grey mixes. Let me see if I can get a job at the wardrobe department...

The BoB is a much better show. It shows the progress of war. This one mission per episode is getting tiresome after the first 3.

eBay has a 10% off coupon and I used that as an excuse to buy this natural CXL half belt

The jackets should all look fairly new as they are only a year old or less. Major Egan had his B3 for a few years by 1943.

Col. Huglin the CO who must have been in England before the 1st episode? His A-2 does not have any crease or wear. Anyway jacket is the icing, the cake is kind of bland.

Argh!!! Where did you find this?!??
We match!!!!
This is such a cool jacket, the perfect collar IMO-Congratulations!
Evilbay. Almost didn’t buy it cause of all the VAT and customs. It’s waaay too small for you, on the edge even for me.
Ah, that’s right! You have the exact same one. I saw it and knew someone here had one but couldn’t remember who it was.
Thank you. I feel better.
If stated measurements turn out to be off I will be in your DMs. It’s tag size 42.
Awaiting the arrival of my career 6th Board Racer… Aero BR has always been my favorite jacket style, especially BB Vic. The measurements on this one are spot on what I would spec for custom.. The amount of $$ I’ve lost getting the correct size and experimenting with other colors is a figure I do not wish to calculate. I traded my last one for a jacket that I was 90% sure would fit too large. Why? Because I’m an idiot. Hurry up, UPS.
