This is a Nigel Cabourn Aircraft Jacket in Vintage Red. Waterproof, highly wind resistant (perhaps entirely windproof?), made from Ventile fabric, gorgeous construction.
Looking for the frankly silly price of $200 so I can buy a few more Cabourn things.
Cabourn size 48, otherwise a size L -
Measurements in inches:
P2P: 23.5
Back: 26
Raglan shoulder
Sleeve: 21
Taken from the website:
Inspired by pieces from his personal collection of original military clothing, which numbers over 3000 rare pieces, the the Aircraft jacket, like everything in Nigel Cabourn's Authentic collection is constructed with particular reverence to authentic details. A Cabourn classic, it is made from cotton cloth coated in refined oil - a traditional weatherproofing technique developed for the British fishermen. Nigel has been working with this fabric since 1979 due to its quality and durability, and has developed the Aircraft jacket into something truly special. The jacket is closed with a military-spec RiRi zip, covered with a storm flap which fastens with rubber-backed metal pop studs. For fairer weather, the hood may be rolled away and secured with a flap at the rear of the collar.
100% Cotton Natural Oilcloth Construction
100% Cotton Lining
High Stance Collar with Adjustable Hood
Waxed Drawstring with Metal Tips and Leather Stoppers
Rear Collar Flap to Secure Roll-Away Hood
Two-Way RiRi M8 Military-Spec Zip Closure
Pop-Stud Fastened Storm Flap
Under-Arm Ventilation with Rubberised Metal Eyelets
Two Slanted Front Flap Pockets
Made in England
