Great !! M42 Wehrmacht or Waff SS ?Just got those… not really flight or leather jackets… but „vintage“ and all original with provenance.View attachment 151739View attachment 151741
No Wehrmacht, and several different „ Tarnmuster „ camo pattern ( Kursk, Normandy, Bulge).Great !! M42 Wehrmacht or Waff SS ?
Very nice ideas there, Capt. I’m a big fan of the Cagleco, really cool silhouette amongst the navy jackets.BK 55J14 incoming replacing a returned M422a, got an order in with JC but really want a CAGLECO to custom fit me.
JC has advised below which Navy leather models have the broadest shoulder.
“I think the jackets which have the widest shoulders are the Church M-422A and L.W. Foster 55J15. The Willis & Geiger M-422 also has a big shoulder shape, but the lower torso is a little big, too. I can adjust these details.”
Very nice CBI, exquisite choices there. What leather are you thinking?I am in the queue for a Good Wear (probably RW 1401 or 27752) but its going to be a while. Knowing a steller without question jacket will be in the works has squelched any further interests and enthusiasms to pursue any other jackets at this time. Lets see how long this lasts,..............so far so good.
Am now picturing JC as the Willy Wonka of flight jackets.Couldn’t agree more - knowing you have a special ticket lined up with JC down the line, nothing out there quite as magical as that.
It’s funny because there’s a great element of truth in it!Am now picturing JC as the Willy Wonka of flight jackets.
Candy is dandy but Shinki is quicker.It’s funny because there’s a great element of truth in it!
When you decide if that’s what you want to do … List your measurement in the Buy/ Sell section and you’ll let everyone know what you’re looking for size wise .I have lately started thinking about getting something from GW. Maybe a preowned first.
