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

And where pray are all these grinning photos then?

This is the best grimace, sorry grin, I can manage today. Performed while adorned in my re-dyed Aero Noir Irvin....

Beautiful Irvin!

 

[Sideslip]

My new BoB Aero merino at Loch Long in Scotland. Am only wearing a base layer underneath and was just right temperature, it was about 3-4c.

. It is strange as the colour changes according to the light, it looks much darker under certain electric light.

Fine looking Irvin there Sideslip ... that's got Scottish atmosphere written all over that pic

I've decided the Forum can only handle so much excitement at one time Micawber and besides I hadn't got my heated teeth in today ...

You could have borrowed mine.

Same old, same old. ATF tanker but now with further authentic 'patina' in the form of creosote stains because a fence post slipped out of my gloved hands back into a container of the stuff. Treat 'em rough I say, none of this "my jacket is getting a lovely authentic worn in look since I was caught in a light rain shower during my two minute walk to the bakery to pick up some profiteroles" malarkey….

Bah humbug

maybe you could do a sideline in breaking in jackets for people

You could have a new business venture there. We send you jackets to get the authentic ‘worn out look’ (for a fee). Mind you the neighbours may be like ‘There goes that wild fellow, sets light to his hedges and now dragging leather jackets around his land from the back of his tractor…’

Perfect fit to me. Looks just like the way I’ve seen WW2 pilots wearing them, lovely enjoy.

USN day for me here...
ELC USN seaman sweater and the ELC 55J14 aka G-1

 

[Micawber]

Wonderfully crisp and frosty winter solstice morning, such a change from the dull and damp stuff we have had recently. Old ELC Irvin doing service....

 

[newagegeezer]

Twas the first really frosty night in London as well, so the old WW2 Irvin took me out for a walk on the common (the southern edge of Epping Forest) to enjoy the misty sun and frosty grass. Possibly a last outing in this one as being sold in New Year, i've looked after it for over 40 years so time for someone else to enjoy

 

[Griffon_301]

Great look and great, lovely jacket!

After reading the first review from John about the new Aero Irvin I have ordered it directly.
Really in love with this Irvin and now my go to jacket during the colder day.
IMO fit is perfect.
As some may know … in a perfect world …

 

[Kermit3D]

The Irvin is very nice... indeed the fit is very good

But... sorry I know that's not the point... The Mike Hailwood Ducati in the background is fantastic!!!

Where is that store ?

 

[tusche]

Gasoline Alley in Munich.
The store is more like a museum and a playground for men!
The owner, Burkhard, is a friend of mine and as far as I know the first Aero retailer in Germany.

Very nice, you wear it well. Is that the Merino version? I like the way the Aero belt is a generous length.

 

[tusche]

Thanks,
Yes it is the Merino version .
Absolutely fantastic to wear, no break in necessary.
