Aero AN-J-3 Goatskin and What a Deal.

[B-Man2]

A few days ago there were a bunch of high end repros on Ebay in large sizes i.e. 46 and 48. I watched the bidding and there wasn’t a great deal of bidding going on for this Aero AN-J-3 in a size 48. I checked the measurements and for a 48 they were on the smaller side, so I wanted one of these for a while and decided to make a run at it. To my surprise I got it dirt .....emphasis on DIRT.... cheap. A new one from Aero is in the $800. range . This new one cost me less than half that price. I thought I’d share a few pictures with a few of my friends here so, here it is.

Super Burt, welcome to the ANJ club

What colour is the lining? Looks like a mustard?

And here I thought I had made the steal of the week. That is one beautiful piece of work.

Thanks for all the kind words. Much appreciated.

Sweet Burt!

Honestly Tim
Right out of the box this is one easy movement comfortable jacket. Can’t really understand why the military didn’t buy into this one.
