New Aero Leather design Battle of Britain model Irvin

[Hendrix]

Has anyone had any experience with the 'new' design Irvin by Aero? Apparently it has new sleeve design/materials etc, and seems to look (on line at least) and improvement of their previous jacket. Wondering what those with vastly more experience in these matters think...

Is what you are looking for.

Thanks for that! Sleeves look good on this, although I'm not too keen on multi-panels, but it looks a great cut/fit.

Colour looks better after 70 years.

It's had its thermal properties tested to the max by the freezing weather we've had in Chicago - it dropped to -7 while we were out on Saturday night :eeek:. Also had a couple of people stop me to say they loved the jacket and asked where they could get one!

I would tell them they only get one after enlisting in the RAF and earn their wings.

What is a Scottish lad like you doing in The Windy City (Chicago) this time of year anyhow?

Developing frostbite in the extremities but having a good time seeing the sights and eating much far too much!

Sounds like a plan to me!

Ah, Sloan- didn't know you were in town. Welcome!

It sounds like you're discovering all the great restaurants without much assistance. If you get a bit homesick, I've always enjoyed Duke of Perth on Clark St.

(Gorgeous jacket, btw-)

Have fun!
