I made a quick reference in the Aero sale thread to there not being any A1s in the sale but I’d found this jacket. I couldn’t believe my luck- listed on eBay as a brown bomber jacket with buttons. It looked ‘proper’ and while the YMC stamp on the lining threw me the black label gave me confidence. A quick search came up with a reference to YMC A1s made by Eastman in a TFL thread from years ago. I made a very speculative buy it now at £180, worried it might be wrong and yes it’s got the label! Cosmic ordering at its best - it’s a 44” Long - my size!

Great A-1! Looks like it has the time worn effect which looks nice.

Greetings All:
Today....it’s a vintage Levis Shearling long jacket/coat. You can’t get much more comfy than one of these.
Be well. Bowen

It did take a couple of years but my experience is, if you persevere it will turn up at a good price (but at an expensive price more frequently).

Nice one T. The leather, style, and especially fit all just right on.

Bfd70 · Oct 24, 2018

Sorry for the orientation.
I know it doesn’t exactly fit this thread but I’m guessing it’ll hit its target audience.

Mich486 · Oct 24, 2018

That leather... wow!!!

Man that sure looks like a Thedi style..or does Thedi look like a BK style. Whatever, it is certainly a unique style that looks great. The Thedi buttons where the BK zips. The fit sure looks good.

I want to make a jacket pattern shaped basin, and grow this "leather".

dannyk · Oct 25, 2018

It’s basically winter here in Buffalo NY so the collar is out. 618 HH with collar and Red Wing Iron Ranger Muleskinnners on the bottom. And though my dog doesn’t make an appearance here. Rocking my friends dog rescue shirt.

dannyk · Oct 25, 2018

And just to make a point. Cause I love my dogs.

Very interesting, but but his pronunciation just blew my mind
