  • Well well well, if it isn't me, and if it isn't you, and if it isn't my favorite jacket, and if it isn't the isn't isn't it.
    Hello everyone and welcome to a story about a bomber jacket. Not the A1, A2, G1, G3, B6, B7, or any of those. No, no, this is on the B3. This story has a little something to do with a movie I made! The B3 is a perfect winter jacket but only if you are mighty enough to wear it day to day (I can't most days). So I guess this is a staple of mens fashion (or just Bane...maybe just Bane).
    btw: the thumbnail is taken on one of those old Kodak disposable cameras. P cool. I didn't take it though, but dw i'm still cool

Until then, we’re here to tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about the best clothing out there, from the highest quality raw denim jeans to the warmest jacket to the sturdiest boots…the Iron Snail has got you covered.

    Hey Michael.
    Long time watcher, and to see how you have grown the nature of the content on this channel has been great. You're maintaining the same theme - but it has moved so far beyond what it was & far beyond what any 'lifestyle' vlogger might be doing - Your work of late has been incredible. I dont doubt that this self-reflective journalling with a side of menswear takes alot out of you timewise, and i imagine in the future that more important projects with have to take priority - if your output on this channel slows down i'll miss it, but i hope i'll still manage to be able to follow your tale somehow.

    I honestly don't think military leather jackets look good on anyone under the age of 35, not even Cameron O's A2. They look too bulky and are not appropriate for environments above freezing like they were designed to withstand.

    I personally like the D-1 better. Much simpler design and you can layer underneath. I found the shearing on the B-3 too thick due to the nature of the altitude it was worn in. The D-1 was worn by ground crews so shearing is thinner. Collar is smaller too. Just my opinion on B-3s or even B-6s. It’s the D-1 for me. I can actually put an A-2 underneath it. Like your paint job on the back. Looks cool.

    Hell yeah! The clips you showed of your school film look super dope! You should put it out online. Also, my sympathies for having to wear that bomber in your Brooklyn apartment which I know from experience is probably set to 110 degrees all winter with nothing you can do but open all of your windows.

    I want to know the job experience/criteria for parachute tester AND I would love to see these items tested in their natural environment;p). If George Bush Sr can do it on his birthday I think you owe it to yourself to at least consider it. And I’m sure Christian would do it in support. Also, I feel you on loosing yourself in a role/character you are playing. “In the heart of danger overcome it.” 30+ films is killing it my friend. Thank you

    Dude, I'm going to let you know this because I think you'd be into it. I just got my Padmore & Barnes X 3sixteen collab boot on the mail like 20 minutes ago. The things feel like walking on clouds. I'm going through my closet right now to see what I can get rid of in order to get me the other color. Try for yourself.
