I confess that I own a flying jacket, but hopefully don't look as daft as a Bentley GTC owner!
Spotted on the A27 on our way to Portsmouth. A GTC hood down with owner in a sheepskin and also wearing a leather flying helmet!! I've always thought that one of the joys of Morgan ownership is that one can drive it hood down in any weather, wearing whatever one likes, and it doesn't look stupid in the way a modern car hood down in the rain does. Mind you, I have attended owners meetings where people have turned up in their tintops wearing flying jackets.....which is a bit sad really..... Nick

This is the link.... Irvin Made in a building on Thruxton Airfield, next to Motalita. I need to pay them a visit.. Be careful of the speed humps on the entrance road - but was it you posted that warning some years ago when you had the Roadster?

That red arrows one looks lovely Agree. I was very tempted but ended up with a nice leather Barbour jacket, also with a red lining to match the Mog. Anyone else fancy a leather Millia helmet?

I wear a Harley Davidson leather jacket. The longer sleeves which can be fastened tightly at the cuffs makes for toasty warm driving. The detachable inner fleece comes in handy on particularly cold days..it's also got shoulder mounts to which I've attached a pair of Japanese admiral epaulettes. Very cool!

I wear mine pretty much all year unless the weather is very warm. I love it. We noticed 😉

Important sizing information
Men: We suggest men order the same size jacket as their actual chest measurement. If the hips (over and including the stomach) are bigger than the chest measurement please write the measurement in the notes on the order page.
If that's the case, it's not fitting in the jacket that will be the problem, it will be fitting in the car!

I use my Holdens flying jacket during winter months....it's less bulky than the Irivin and a tad cheaper.
Otherwise my favourite is a classic 1939s style leather jacket from Aero Leather. Brown distressed quarter horsehide, it'll last for years!

I should think that Quarter Horse probably was distressed  Think I'll just aim to get back into my old m/c leather...
