    Great movie, with great A-1's as well.

    Comparison of Type A-1 jackets (GW and ELC .50 Cal)

    I'm around a 42/44. So these might be a touch large on me. But they're still very cool.

    Slim fitting flight jackets (A-2, M422)

    I have a buzz rickson a-2 and a real mccoys, buco, j-100. They are both amazing jackets. I personally would buy one of those two companies before any other company because in my opinion they pay a lot more attention to the way the jacket fits. And they fit and look great. The buzz rickson is a...

    Comparison of Type A-1 jackets (GW and ELC .50 Cal)

    Thank you. I know what you mean about posing for shots. I've been thinking about getting an A-1 for about a year and I'm interested to see how these two fit. But if its not your style to post that, I completely understand.

    Comparison of Type A-1 jackets (GW and ELC .50 Cal)

    Would it be possible to post pics of you wearing them so we could get an idea of the drape of the coats while being worn? They both look great by the way.

    Best Method for Getting a Great Aero Fit...

    This is the best idea I've heard in a long time. Can't go wrong with it. Fit is the main reason that holds me back from buying as its the most important aspect of an order.

    G&b an-j-3

    Amazing jacket! G&B's goat is out of this world. It's just fantastic. Now if they would just make a cut for us slimmer dudes, I'd have me one of them.

    A2 Order, mid term crisis!

    I understand what your going through. I support russet, but I have to say the reasons you stated are exactly why I went with dark seal. And let me tell you, it's never garish, goes with everything, and is quite cool. In my personal opinion. I'd hate to see you think too much but for me, seal is...

    How do YOU break in a new jacket?

    Slevin, when you do that, do you feel like the jacket ends up with a different texture to the leather? Or do you feel it is simply a faster means to get to the exact same end?

    A-1 Jacket / A1 Flying Jacket - The ultimate Golden Era flying accessory!

    Oh Butte, that's a tough decision. Like I mentioned in an earlier post I just put in an order with GW for an A-1. I'm ready to jump in with both feet on that design. I can tell you I really think the '38 models at least the Aero ones I've seen are niiiiice. Haha, this thread is killing me...

    Vintage Finnish Leather Jackets

    Pretty cool stuff. I'd love to see more Scandanavian leather jackets. I dig a lot of these especially the leathers on the ladies.

    US Duty for an Aero

    Yes, we should. And not to put the onus on someone else but I think ups pays more attention when the vendor puts the heat on them.

    US Duty for an Aero

    Let me tell you guys I've had some horror stores with UPS. They shipped a cafe racer jacket of mine to some other apartment not even on my street. Then told me they had shipped it to me. I might have been able to get my money back after a while but the jacket was a one of a kind jacket. I was...

    US Duty for an Aero

    I haven't dealt with those. But that was a bold move bro! :-)

    Which one is the best A-2 repro manufacturer? Eastman, Buzz Rickson, Aero Leather, Re

    I want to throw Buzz Rickson into the mix here. I tried on a bunch of lesser jackets first, none of them were right and my girlfriend hated all of them. It got to the point where said shed support me, but she just was not a fan of A-2's. Then I got my Buzz Rickson in and right away her eyes lit...

    How do YOU break in a new jacket?

    The other thing about this particular pic is that it's reliced in the wrong place. What's with all that wear right above the pick guard and the bridge. A guitar wouldn't wear out so much in those places. The place where you rest your arm and insert the guitar cable are normal wear spots. The...

    A-1 Jacket / A1 Flying Jacket - The ultimate Golden Era flying accessory!

    There just a cool uniqueness to A-1's. You don't see them everyday and not just everyone wears them. I'll admit, when I first saw them they seemed a bit wonky to me. But then they kept growing and growing on me. Now I find them just amazing to look at. It's kind of like music. When you...
