When this jacket arrived I already had 2 Eastman and 1 Aero irvins. This repro compares very favourably with those jackets. I have used it more or less every day for a few weeks now and I'm very pleased with it. It is not too warm which is a good thing as you get to wear it in the normal winter temperatures, not just in the short spells of extreme cold. My jacket also is slightly longer in the body than the other repros and this makes it more comfortable. The sheepskin has a nice colour and surface and the jacket is very comfortable to wear right out of the box. No breaking in needed.

This jacket is incredible! I just came back from a weekend in Northern Ontario in sub zero weather, and everyone was cold, except me! Jacket has very good looks. Everyone is asking where I bought it.
