What are you wearing under your jacket in winter?

[bazelot]

absolutely nothing. I like to go commando...

Does anybody have any experience with Pike Bros' C-2 vest ? How's the fit and build?

A Beerenberg sweater from Arthur Beale, bought after seeing @Flightengineer ‘s one, great warm sweater. I will be wearing it that is, when the weather cools down a bit.

That looks lovely. It looks thick, does the roll-neck collar keep its shape or does it go all floppy and stretched out (not so keen on that)? [Yes, I know, first world problems...]

M&S boxers weekdays. Hand tailored silk boxers from one of Savile Row's finest on Sundays.

Oh yes really

I’ve only worn it for one winter, in rotation with other jumpers (I take them very seriously ) and it hasn’t stretched out yet. As far as I know all roll necks stretch, it’s just the wool knit that keeps their shape, the only solution is not to wear them too often.

Sorry, bot, you failed the Turing test:

Shirt and tie vibe today.

Gave the 'Bars' a polish. Fortuitous that the CAPT rank adorns most of my AAF stuff.

Both versions of the ELC Rangoon shorts and ties.... Original garrison cap and rank as purchased 20 plus years ago... NO reproduction version ever comes close.

Excellent. Love the look on those Rangoon Shirts.

I have a REI (outdoor brand) Light nylon down filled jacket that slides under my N1 and Peacoat. Works to about 15f.

I have taken to wearing bamboo boxers. Daring I know but there you go, sometimes you have to try new things

Ok I'll bite [again]. Brushed cotton Tattersall check shirt by Barbour, Argyll knit waistcoat, moleskin trousers. Just day to day stuff.

In colder weather I’ve found that military repro and original sweaters are invaluable under an A2 jacket.

Thought I was doing great with my treasure hunt... finding all the kit I had forgotten about. Now to locate the A-1 sweater I bought in 2008 and stored...

I have a Bronson c2 on the way.

 

[bfd70]

Received. Happy with the purchase. Fit is good.

Not got as far as the cacks yet, but I have some bamboo socks which I think are terrific. Very comfy and surprisingly warm despite being quite thin.
