Hi all, Got my WWII six panel back Irvin up for sale. It's in great shape, had some repairs since it flew, missing the original collar strap, all zips work, recently treated with Pecards, totally wearable, and comes with a spare main zipper. Was a wired jacket, all wiring has been removed and...

Thinking about the taxy experience in a Lancaster in the UK (back there in August for sister-in-law's wedding)....that sounds pretty special too. I'm suspecting my Irvin was a bomber pilot's - there's zero wear on the sleeves/shoulders...you could almost swing a cat in a Lanc cockpit! I know one...

Smithy I have a buddy who flies, and he can rent a Tigger Moth up near Wang...we is going to take our jackets back up where they belong soon! And Butte, Pasadena sounds nice and steamy...I'm guessing you're just wearing a crusher cap, wife-beater and cargo shorts and sipping pina coladas by the...

SO as the Northern members think about putting away their Irvins, it's time to start putting mine on... A 1941 IAC from Simon. It was quite original except for one recent repair to the shoulder, so the good people of Aero asked for it to be sent to them for a bit of R&D before forwarding it on...

PRICE REDUCTION - £650 plus shipping!!!

It's gone to ebay. Hopefully no more bid retractions after today's:(...

That is amazing, and something you don't see every day. Lucky you live in Norway, you'll get good use out of it once it's patched up! Great photos.

SOLD. Thank you. Mark D, I have a European trip to see family coming up soon, and it's gonna take every spare cent I have. Even my beautiful Large Irvin which I spent 3 years (and a huge wad of cash on) to find is under the hammer...

I'm 6'2", 220 pounds and it is 22" across the shoulders.

This is up again, maybe it will interest you Northerners now you're starting to feel the cold. Size 46 XL Worn a dozen times - comes with all original paperwork from Eastman and box/packaging. An extra inch in the sleeves (26 inches shoulder to cuff) and 1.5 inches in the length collar to...

Hi all Loungers. That's right, the massive Size 8 I recently bought must go - after spending lots on it, the wife and I need money to come to The Old Dart for her sister's wedding next year...so my Eastman B6 is on the chopping block, as well as this beautiful Irvin. I have spent a fair bit on...

This is a beautiful jacket John. How good is that patina? And the zips look incredible. Amazing panelwork too. Great find.

Ernest your jacket is beautiful... No idea how you could have let it sit in the closet on the last 30 years of icy London winter days! You must be super strong willed, especially as yours looks so inviting and lived-in.

I was gonna give him this winter to get some good wearing days in, then mount a petition for a late spring release...

No pressure Andrew...
