Just traded my Cal with @unhatted . His was too small and mine was a bit big so we swapped and I couldn't be happier! This feels like the perfect fit and has a beautiful tea core. It's a 70s model with an action back but it still feels super heavy and stiff and it still has all its original belt loops.

Stunning jacket. Don't see many shearling lined Aero leathers in the wild. Good choice of shell design for it, looks great. Hints of a sleeker ANJ4 to my eye.



Looks like a Heer ski cap o some variety, possibly the M43?

Without the Problematic Badging, they civilianise really well. As memory serves the design originally was based on a civilian skiing cap, so it makes sense to reclaim it back into a civilian look.
Yes, it ist an M43 Fieldcap (Feldmütze). The Ski-Cap (Bergmütze) of the mounted troops has shorter visor.
