    hi, sorry to bother you with this but I saw your raf jacket. it's too big for me, but I wanted to ask you a question about wearing it. when you zip it half way or 3/4, does the flap bounce off you like a loose tongue or is nice and secure? thanks

    Can somebody help educate me on leather thickness and cold weather suggestions?

    Hi all. i have been looking for a new leather jacket for cold weather (Montreal) So I've had a b-15 leather jacket for over a decade (i took it from my father about 12 years ago) and wore it every season. Now i wasn't ever cold provided I had a decent sweater underneath, but I want something...

    ALL REPRO R.A.F. Irvin type jackets

    I've got quite a dumb question but I am in the market for an irving and i have to ask about 3 things. 1. is it comfortable? 2. Should I size up? 3.when you leave it half/three quartered zip and the leather flap hangs out, is it annoying to walk? Does it bounce on and off your chest or is it...

    Goat or cowhide for winter?

    thanks for the informative reply! it's quite old and there's only a 'genuine' leather tag on it, so it's likely not from somebody super reputable

    Goat or cowhide for winter?

    i am looking for another b-15 in leather to replace it actually. I just wanted to get something higher quality that will last and needed some opinions. I was able to find out that my first one was fully cotton lined inside except for the sleeves

    Goat or cowhide for winter?

    i already said i had a cotton lined bomber and never felt a shred of cold even on the coldest days. what you're suggesting is MASSIVE overkill

    Goat or cowhide for winter?

    i think i just had cotton on the inside and some odd shiny material in the sleeves (not sure what, polyester or something) but like i said, never even felt a breeze in the strongest of winds

    Goat or cowhide for winter?

    thanks for the reply! a lot of people tell me i have good cold resistance, but that really isn't true. I am chronically anemic and i get cold at room temperature. leather is just really good at keeping the wind out in my experience...like i've had -30C/-20F and i was never cold in my upper body...

    Goat or cowhide for winter?

    like i mentioned, i had leather for the coldest days and i felt 0 cold or wind. I know leather is good for my needs, i am just wondering which leather would be better

    Goat or cowhide for winter?

    Hi all. I am looking for a new winter jacket that can stand up to Canadian winters. For the past decade i've used my fathers old b-15 bomber jacket and I am unsure as to what leather it was as is was already well-worn when he gave it to me. It weighed over 5 1/2 pounds, and not ONCE on the...
