    Aero Leather A2 Bronco - need advice on fit

    That’s how Broncos are cut, more roomy than some A-2 contracts. If you want a trimmer original maker jacket from Aeroleather , try their pre war and early war contract jackets.

    How do I care for and store my jacket????

    I would advise against keeping sheepskin jackets on hangars for long periods of time. Buy a suit bag with a zip up front and place jacket inside it then lay flat in a wardrobe or similar away from heat .

    Thoughts on my new Eastman Rough Wear B3 jacket

    Just wear it and it will soften up, B-3’s take a lot of breaking in and can be quite tiring to wear for long periods but it will soften up the more you wear it.

    B6,D1 or Irvin for tall slim athletic build?

    The B-6 has more of a fitted look and the D-1 is more of a Boxy fit.

    ALL REPRO R.A.F. Irvin type jackets

    If you want it trim specify your actual chest size , as Aero Irvins are on the larger size, as irvins were made to be worn over sweaters and battle dress etc.

    Military 'woolly pully' sweaters

    I bought an Eastman A-1 sweater and went a size down as they are quite baggy. I normally take a 40 but went for a 38.

    Another Eastman B3 Fit and questions part 2

    Fit is spot on, looks good. These jackets are very stiff and restrictive when new and take a good while to break in . But it’s worth the discomfort .
