    Aero Zipper Wavyness

    I just checked my jackets: most don't have it, a couple do. C'est la vie.

    B-3 Jacket as a Daily Wear

    I wear my B3 often and it just plain works. It is quite warm and I wear it for my daily heart-healthy walks when the temps are low and the winds are howling, winds we get in Oklahoma often. I did have to buy some short-cuff mittens to wear with it, as the standard ones in my collection all would...

    Extra External Pockets: Love'm or Leave'm?

    Wait a minute, that's not quite right. How about "Forearm zips are terrific for placing the tiny items one usually has a devil of a time keeping track of." Yes, that's it.

    WTB- BELT BUCKLE THAT WILL ACCEPT 2.5" Challenge Coin!

    All of the challenge coin buckles I've owned, or seen, have all had clips which would allow the coin to be placed on the counter without the belt tagging along.

    Schott B3 Authenticity Check

    My chest measures right at 40". I would have ordered this size but the jacket was a gift. It's appearance is not that of being overly large, though, and the extra room really allows me to have a complete range of unrestricted motion. But for all I know, I would still have the range in a size 40...

    Schott B3 Authenticity Check

    I have a size 42 Schott B3, in black. I usually wear a size 40 and this jacket has a lot of room for layering. It is a go-to for late night walks when temps are in the 20s or lower. Often, the jacket will need to be partially unzipped at some point so as to allow some cooling to take place: it...

    Favorite Motorcycle Riding Jackets In Your Collection

    Yeah, I was just being a bit contrary myself. What kind of dirt bikes do you have? I still own the CanAm 175cc (real) enduro I purchased new in 1978, back when CanAm actually manufactured motorcycles. It's so old now that it is "vintage" class...so it fits right in with the tastes of most of the...

    Favorite Motorcycle Riding Jackets In Your Collection

    There are be many reasons one might trailer a bike. I've known people who have limited time for a vacation, wish to ride around a particular area, say Sturgis, and can't spend the time in the saddle to get there and then still be able to ride because of complications from previous injuries. They...

    Reproduction B3 Style Heavy Sheepskin Jacket

    Just received the B3, delivered on the 24th. The condition is just as stated and it will make a great jacket, one that is quite warm and will not be babied in the least. It should come in handy when tending the BBQ smoker, in 20°F weather. My wife has already repaired the mentioned small rip at...

    Zipper preference to replace Talon on Vanson Jacket

    My Vanson Comet, purchased new, was supplied with a YKK #10 zipper. It never occurred to me that having a factory-made jacket featuring a factory-supplied zipper could damage it's value in any way. It's one helluva riding jacket. Or would the poorer resale value only affect those jackets...

    Normal House on the Outside, 17th Century on the Inside!

    I like it!!! It looks like it could have belonged to a Cavalier. After showing her these images, my wife just informed me that this is the reason SHE is in charge of choosing our residences..........
