    Is it just in my head or is the Real McCoys B3 much better made than Eastmans?

    Closer to the original, I can’t speak to because I just don’t know these jackets well enough. Better hardware I can’t speak to either because I don’t know enough about this either. Neater stitching and finer finishing to the edge of the leather, yes, these are two points that I would...

    Is it just in my head or is the Real McCoys B3 much better made than Eastmans?

    Is it just in my head or is the Real McCoys B3 much better made than Eastmans? I tried out a lovely Eastman B3 month or so ago and posted about it here. Week or so ago I also tried on a new Real McCoys B3 in a shop. I can clearly remember thinking that the HH(?) on the back of the arms looked...

    Oh I'm coming (back) to visit parents. Just figured might try find some leather shops while I was there. In the past, its been camera shops. Oh the "hobbies" and new interests...

    Fit check on a B3 I just tried

    I think the ANJ4 might be a better fit for my shape being that its a more "regular" shaped jacket somewhat similar to the overall shape of the b6

    Fit check on a B3 I just tried

    I was worried about the weight because many say the b3 is a beast. Not anywhere near as bad as I expected. It is substantial in terms of size for sure. It is a statement

    Fit check on a B3 I just tried

    I’d agree. I generally need larger sized tops than others my height I guess because of shoulders/back. Invariably the arms are too long and the jacket is too long in the body. I’m 177 cm and this was a 44

    Fit check on a B3 I just tried

    Turns out the Eastman B3 is not as unweildly heavy as I suspected. Beautiful piece. How does the fit look? It took a bit of work to move arms and shoulders. Does this eventually subside or does it always remain like this? Apparently the original owner has only worn it a handful of times in the...

    Anyone have one of Aero’s Shawl Collar Barnstormers? If yes, please could you post one (or more) picture(s) of you wearing it, along with your height?

    I’ve been to a few of your main cities and would say the weather is relatively similar so thank you for this information. It’s a beautiful piece

    Such a beautiful piece! Thank you for posting. Are you UK based? I ask because I know UK weather (I lived there long). If you are UK based, would you say it’s warm enough for most of the UK winter?

    Anyone here in UK ?

    This is a good shout, thank you. I would like to check out what else is also available while I’m there. Still, really hoping to see at lease one of these two jackets in person before I decide to put money down. If Aero themselves actually have them in stock, that would be ideal for me. I...

    Anyone here in UK ?

    So this is maybe a bit of a weird one. I am looking at getting an aero shawl collared barnstormer or a Thunderbay. Both of these are exactly what I’ve been looking for I.e. a shearling lined horsehide jacket. The thunderbay is even my dream jacket but better (almost a B2 and with a shearling...
