    Well, in fairness im probably going to go with 18 mm sheepskin, should be a good compromise between warmth and aesthetics. That's the reason I want to go to the factory to actually try on these jackets to make sure im happy with the look and fit before dropping the £700+. With the sheepskin I...

    Oh ok, I will be sure to look into the long zip or button version should I end up buying one. The jacket looks like a shield from wind and cold. I love the colour of your ANJ-4. Is that still the current aero offering? Do you treat your jacket with a waterproofing product sloan? I would think...

    I understand your stance on this whole episode and where you are coming from. If aero was able to provide me with the exact product I want, I would gladly go with them as they have a good reputation for quality and service. If the jacket was £100 I'd bite the bullet and accept it has no...

    Hmmmm, obviously alot of history between The two companies that you feel passionate about. Your Aero ANJ-4 really is very nice, the aero jackets are very nice looking across the board. Is there any other jackets that you are a big fan of apart from the B3? If so, what isit about them that...

    Just a quick update. SB have got back to me on the mods im looking for. They can do me a RAF jacket in redskin and even create the coat out of a single skin to give me the pre war look, avoiding the seams across the jacket. I don't mind the seams they look nice just slightly prefer non seams...

    Great help plumbline. Maybe I could pick up an aero pre war RAF and have one of the mentioned leather tailors to put 2 zip pockets on there. The current B3 aviation leathercraft are currently selling looks amazing to my eyes from a fashion sense, 2 side weld pockets are an option or keep the...

    Cheers for the link butte! Very nice jackets! Anybody know of the company 'british sheepskin company' They have what im after I think for £460 in 15mm or £560 in 25mm http://www.british-sheepskin.co.uk/product/mens-sheepskin-flying-jacket-ww11-raf-sheepskin-flying-jacket/ I would have a...

    Hi sloan, no they cannot add the pockets and it's fair enough, I get their stance and ideology as I do yours. Im nit a hobbyist or specifically after an 'Irvin' per se, just a cool looking jacket and I happened to stumble on to that RAF with idea of adding a pocket. Very few people of my era...

    Cheers rocketeer, I do really like the look of the jacket from AL. When it's tine to purchase I would happily drive to scotland and stay in a nice hotel and make a nice evening of it. Me and my girlfriend stay away for the night often for a meal and drink in a different part of the UK most...

    Sloan, im only curious if they would accomodate a customisation as a one off, of which I'll happily pay a premium for. Im not asking for them to change the whole line of jackets to now include pockets. If that is how it has come across that is not what I meant. Im in my 20's, the jackets were...

    Also guys, Do you know if a leather crafstman would add the pockets for me if Aero won't do it??

    Plumblibe, is the elastic actually used to wrap onto the forehead? I could make it work under a nice wool beanie lol

    Aero Anj4

    I would be gutted sloan if they don't. Going over the multiple jacket models I realised what I liked about each, sleeve zippers for gauntlet gloves or roll up if needs be, the buckle for cinching plus it just looks cool to me. I also get the aspect of detracting from a classic look by adding...

    Fair enough. How old is your jacket bud? How does rain affect these leather jackets guys? With uk winters being wet aswell as cold, are the jackets ok if you get caught in rain or do they need a coating of sorts?

    I love the look of the aero pre war RAF jacket. Pretty much perfect. It has the thick fur look, love the colour, it has the buckle to pull it to a fitted look around the wais, zippers on the cuff with slim fitting sleeves by the look from the photos.... no pockets!!! I only need to add zipper...
