    Eastman Roughwear fit

    Fit is spot on. I assume you think it’s too big? The sleeves have ridden up a bit already with wear.

    Hi new here. Is wearing a leather jacket basically an invitation for trouble?

    Sorry dude but If you’re that sensitive about what you wear then you probably need to grow a pair. Just saying

    RARE EARLY AVIATION LEATHERCRAFT IRVIN JACKET

    I Can't make out the back very well. Are there are any (horizontal) arm seams ? I see the one on the windflap. How tall are you and how much do you weigh? All the other measurements fit, but the shoulder size seems too narrow. I'm a true 44 and my Irvins normally have a 23-24" shoulder. Where do...

    How do you order Waldes zippers?

    Thanks for the replies! I was interested in installing their lightning style zipper on an old Irvin. I like RiRi's a lot and have an Eastman Irvin but again, those aren't available for a single order either i suppose.

    ALL ORIGINAL Irvin RAF type Jackets - Loving that Wolf in sheeps' clothing!

    Interesting thing about it- Jason Momoa (the actor) is 6' 4" tall and actually has the cuffs rolled up about halfway up their zipper length and they still cover his wrists. It's loos like an early IAC, despite the 4 piece back, and to have found one that size must have been a miracle.

    MA-1 Flight jacket

    Consider yourself very lucky if you don't have to replace any of the knits. Just doing the cuffs on one of mine was $40 plus the cuffs. A waistband job could easily approach $100. Some seamstresses won't even touch them. They're so tough.

    Brad Pitt's suede halfbelt in "Allied"

    It deserves a nicer looking zipper puller, not square for starters. Nice jacket though.
