Just traded my Cal with @unhatted . His was too small and mine was a bit big so we swapped and I couldn't be happier! This feels like the perfect fit and has a beautiful tea core. It's a 70s model with an action back but it still feels super heavy and stiff and it still has all its original belt loops.

Stunning jacket. Don't see many shearling lined Aero leathers in the wild. Good choice of shell design for it, looks great. Hints of a sleeker ANJ4 to my eye.



Looks like a Heer ski cap o some variety, possibly the M43?

Without the Problematic Badging, they civilianise really well. As memory serves the design originally was based on a civilian skiing cap, so it makes sense to reclaim it back into a civilian look.
Yes, it ist an M43 Fieldcap (Feldmütze). The Ski-Cap (Bergmütze) of the mounted troops has shorter visor.

Man I wished I was cool enough for (veg) tan jackets. Tried several, couldn't get past the irregular dramatic patina
It’s the best part but trust me on the few jackets I have in natural they all haunted me in the beginning

No pics unfortunately, but yesterday and today we've been enjoying another brace of named storms in the UK, so I've been bashing about in my woodland Golden Mfg M-65.

With a temperature real-feel of -1°C last night, I was toasty even without the jacket liner. And today over a sweatshirt I was boiling my dongles off during a brisk walk to the Post Office in the next village.
