laboisselle Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) SOLD Time to part with my genuine Eastman Leather Clothing USAAF Wartime spec 'Jacket Intermediate Flying Type B-15', representing Rough Wear Clothing Co. Contract 6338AF. Nice overall wear patina - has been mistaken numerous times for an original. If you check their website, Eastman still produce these at £500 a pop! Owned this for about 10 years, but never wear it now, so may as well go to someone who will use it. Very wearable, hard to find size 48 (so an XL, extra large). As worn by fighter pilots and bomber crew in the last couple of years of WW2. As true to the real thing as you can get - cotton twill shell, fur collar, alpaca lining, correct pockets, correct USAAF arm insignia, correct collar label, etc, etc. Rugged and warm - ideal for open cab winter driving without the bulk and restricted movement of a leather A2 or a shearling B3 or Irvin.
