@Duke Mantee haha yea that's the one I was thinking of.

Thanks @dudewuttheheck& @Duke Mantee I guess I have the FW early aviation leather jacket trifecta now.  Those shorter leather jackets seem to fit my build the best. Now I need to get a deerskin jacket.

I got the gold A-1 on the way. I guess I have a type.

Duke that sweater is divine. I would love to get my hands on one of those.

Slab, it was that one. It was a good deal, but the seller did not mention the smell of the thing though. A lot of things that I've gotten used from Japan have a mold smell to them, and that jacket was the worst I've ever experienced. I also have very sensitive allergies, and that smell always triggers them. I had to keep it in the basement before trying numerous methods of getting rid of the smell. This included soaking it multiple times in detergent, vinegar, spraying it with anti allergen and anti smell cleaners. I was ready to just give up a couple of times and then I just said screw it and threw it in the washing machine 4-5 times on a gentle cycle. It still had a faint smell so I ended up washing it on warm with a baking soda detergent which finally did the trick. 00, all of this caused the leather to bring out some of the grain, teacore & crinklyness which was kind of a welcome consequence to me. 

Always liked the Vibergs with the sprung toe. You don't see them as much nowadays with the popularity of their narrow toed boots.

Here are a few shots of my FW A-1. I got it off of YJ a couple of months ago. It's Tatanka brown, but it's much darker than my Brakeman coat, which is also Tatanka brown. 

Thanks Dubs, I'll try to get some new photos of the jackets. I've had a couple of additions & subtractions to the jacket collection. The FW Type 1 is the one I wear the most regularly.

Always loved this jacket.

I like the new Lofgrens. They have more of a military feel to them than engineer boots. I wouldn't mind owning a pair.

Bradl, you should post your boots. They must have some good wear.

Will you take $175?

The only thing more ridiculous than jorts are jorts with pocket bags hanging out the bottom of them.

Those things must reek to high hell after a 10 mile jaunt. Did your package look like the 4th member of the blue man group after that ish?

I love the look that you get with the nap of an undubbed rough out boot.
