In my opinion, that’s one of the best all around jackets made for actually flying in a small plane . It can either be leather or the earlier ones are goatskin . Great jackets for chilly and cold weather.

Aero A-2. Beautifully constructed jacket, but still needs quite a bit of breaking in.

You can still find these popping up occasionally on eBay for really cheap money. It’s a very underrated jacket. I’ve had a couple of them for years and I highly recommend them.

I prefer the LL Bean one only because Ive had one for so long and I don’t know if the schott ones are as good as far as the materials it’s made from . The LL Bean ones were made from Goatskin for the longest time .

The main reason I think of schott is that’s what is accredited as being was worn in the 80s movie the thing and that’s
One of my most favorite movies of all time , pics are from a movie site.

Well ... that’s a selling point for sure.

38F and drizzly and today’s choice is the Eastman HLB. It’s really breaking in - this is its third winter. Hat is a Stetson Nostalgiac, my rain beater.
I predict that the mask at the neck look is going to bring back neckerchiefs when the plague passes.

That’s a great looking Irvin . I’m guessing that’s an older model as it looks far better that what ELC is putting out today .

 

[D97x7]

Thanks, no not especially, 3 or 4 years I think.

 

[B-Man2]

Surprising ... it definitely looks good .
