Belted Barnstormer

[1BigFool]

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a belted-barnstormer...with a removable lining. That's the hard part to find. I found one on ebay but I'm afraid it might be too small.

Are there any websites you recommend?

Welp, since you seem quite earnest, Aero Leather in Scotland makes one as does Vanson in Fall River Mass. Google will take you to either place most rickey tick. Schott makes a leather Pea Coat but I don't think they still make a leather Barnstormer. The Aero comes with fur collar or without.

Have you tried world of leather?

Also US Authentic and Lost Worlds make what can be rightly called "Barnstormers"

Keep waiting and looking as this one is way overpriced.

Thank you, guys. I really like the look of this kind of jacket, but trying to find one with the removable lining seems pretty difficult. I appreciate the info!

It takes a bit of searching to find ones with good lapel shapes, but the style had a resurgence in popularity in the '60s and '70s. Many from that era had zip-out liners. Originals from the 1920s and 1930s generally had sheepskin or heavy wool linings.
Here's a solid example: http://www.ebay.com/itm/400585830153

Go with a standard wool lining and then layer, Barnstormers are meant to take a chunky jumper or two under them.
