Good Wear Type B6 Arnoff

Just when I thought it was safe to stop thinking about jackets...
This looks like a perfect solution to the "not as cold southwest" jacket I need:

Ah, another GW gem. Sort of B6-lite. Beautiful details.

A few months back I had the chance to see first hand this GW design.
If I lived somewhere where I would wear it more I would have snapped it up.
Typical GW quality. Fantastic jacket.

It is an amazing jacket. The fit is longer than the Acme B-6, and was exactly what I needed in regards to fit.

Crikey....that is superb. The b3 is too too warm for me here, the b6 might get a few days work a year, but that little number could be the answer...very nice.

At last, one maker has decided to do the decent thing and put the strap side adjusters rather than those awful zips(IMHO) Both versions I believe are historically correct but this just looks better....I think.

Yeah, I like the looks of this a lot. Looks to be a perfect fall/winter jacket for milder climes. I could for sure use this one here.

John's fleece is so nice.

My Aero B6 was just too thick and fluffy.

I just ordered a D1 through Aero and requested the thinnest off white fleece they had. Also had them finish the the hem/sleeves, because on my previous B6 it was way too fluffy. Felt a little like Santa Claus.

They are the AL of US flight jackets, donchaknow?

 

[Foster]

Oh, okay I understand now. I was a little confused; I already have this jacket

Looks on par with Eastman from just those photos, Never had the Luxury of trying either firsthand.

whats the price Difference between ELC and this GW version.

Stunning. John hits a home run once again!

Yeah, I've read that Good Wear hope to equal the Eastman gear someday. Give him time, they're just getting started and don't have a lot of experience yet. :eeek:
