Haha - I’ve been lusting after a B-3 or russet Irvine type shearling jacket for ages. And I live in Florida! If I ever get my hands on one it would probably get worn less than yours. (I have an A-2 that’s equally rarely worn!)Stylefarm is the type of place where you can convince yourself to custom order a artisanal local plant dyed hat with a 6+ month waitlist, specifically because you feel like some other brand is "affected". It will look nice in the closet hanging above my shearling that I wear 3 times a year.
I tried one on in a leather shop on 34th Street in NYC once but it was too big. I thought I’d pull the trigger on my next visit to the city by which time they’d have a smaller one in. When I returned the shop had disappeared.
I usually see one in the Lauren and Orvis christmas catalogues at vast cost. Maybe one day ...
