What jacket(s) are you wearing at the moment?

[Lord Flashheart]

The right vehicle for the weather Steve. Presumably the shovel is to deal with "ne'er do wells" over the border who might be tempted to half inch your GW?

GW Perry.
Birthday run out to a local hostelry in my 79 year and five month old bit of history.

Phil will know where this is.

Great looking GW! Much like the original, especially the pocket flap.

Trying to get the new Platon in some natural light. Some much needed rain coming……I hope.

Still too warm to really wear any jackets during the day here (and this is inside the Arctic Circle so hello global warming). But I've been looking longingly at jackets and coats and waiting for the weather to cool.

The one I'm really hankering to get some wear going on with is this. I got it from The History Bunker a couple of months back and I haven't been able to wear it yet. It's belted but the belt is belted at the back for now.

I just love this flying coat though and it fits a treat too...

You make a habit of leaving your jackets hanging outside the pubs and I might have to book a flight to the UK.

Great looking hide development there, BTW.

Speechless.... But...that GW Perry is a beauty!

Looking really nice on you! Slightly more relaxed in the hem than the shoulders. But shoulders look great fit-wise as dressed.

Thanks. Shoulders are snug but not tight. 46 and a little snugger then my good wear 44.

My 46 was hard to get on initially because of the back panel shoulder cut till I lost a bit more weight. I've seen variation sizing in some of JC's jackets he has posted (not a complaint).

Hello guys from Ukraine. Kyiv . Today I bought an N3-b parka from Avirex for my collection.

Yep, honest folks around here you know - besides, we were sat at an outside table a very few feet away

I’ve returned or sold countless A2 jackets in 44 over the years because they were too small. I have 2 Goodyears , rw23380 and bronco, both in 44 and the fit is perfect. This is the size I would take in a modern jacket or suit. Except once when I ordered a cloth jacket from China. They said they run a bit small so I ordered an xl. They weren’t kidding. Barely fit my wife who’s 5’2. I exchanged it for a 4xl which just fits

Goodwear! I have to turn that function off on my phone.

I think our “rag tops”are on the wrong sides of the pond

One of my mates in 7th form had an ex NZ Army Series III Landie which we used to take on surfing trips. We took that thing everywhere. Had the winch on the front if we got into trouble.

I have such good memories of roaring around in that old crate, surfing all day and sleeping beside it at night in the sand.
