IHM-43-NAV - Nylon Type L-2B Flight Jacket - Navy Blue
-
To be honest, this didn’t look super impressive online and I couldn’t figure out why it was flying off the shelves. I bit the bullet and grabbed an XXL, and I’m so glad I did. Perfectly constructed lightweight bomber; will definitely get lots of use!

@Buckeye They really nailed it. Nice cross between lightweight jacket and bomber. I typically dislike bombers in general. I love how the collar goes around the neck.

Same. I didn’t decide I wanted it until I saw it in person.

I’m an XXL in the westerns and UHF, typically prefer to go XXXL on jackets for the shoulders and the chest. The XXL in this piece is perfect, and happy I didn’t go XXXL. I’m 6’0”, 207-ish. Hope this helps!

@Buckeye thanks for the reply. I have a xxl on the way!

I thought all hope was lost, but found one the other day at Aitora (they still have M and L in stock if anyone is looking for one), and it just arrived today.
Wow, instant favourite. Very cool jacket. I'm sure this one will see a lot of spring/autumn use over the next few years.
Love both the bombers from this season.Pictured with a few brethren.

This thread has been a little quiet and curious how everyone is getting along with these jackets. It’s one of those where I kind of regret not picking up, but did so because I have too many in rotation.
Are they warm, durable, windproof, etc.? Love to hear some thoughts and feedback on them.

I didn’t originally get it because I heard a green MA-1 was likely in the foreseeable future. (Orange lining
). It haunted me and I pulled the trigger about a week after getting back from Gosport. Now that I have it, I can totally see space in my closet for both.
