Words

"One of Nigel Cabourn's new styles for the spring is the Aircraft Jacket. Quick to become another classic, the aviation influence played a big role in this spring's collection. This is without doubt our favorite piece from his recent offering. Made in apple green cotton camebric, the light weight jacket is a great all-year round piece."

Nice jacket. On inspection it's basically last summer's Monsoon Jacket in a different fabric with different buttons (and £100 more expensive).

I'm not sure about wearing a shirt under a sweater (as sported by this fellow). It looks a bit uneccessary.

Shirt under a sweatshirt: styles nicely, a bastard to get comfortable around the cuffs though. It's a hard life...

Shirt under sweatshirt looks great and feels very comfortable in my opinion/experience, but each to their own.

Also I have to say I really like this jacket. When you handle Cabourn stuff and look at the details closely you can really appreciate the quality and design. Worth the money in my view. I'm still pining after a Cameraman, which is surely one of the best in recent years and would look good and prove useful forever I suspect.

One of my favourite things about the jacket above (other than the epic colour) is the beige colour of thread used. It really sets it off nicely. Keep up the great work Nigel.

Wasn't a fan of this jacket in the online stores pictures, but looks really nice styled this way.

Not sure how I feel about the "apple green" -- maybe better in a rust-color a la Patrik Ervell.
Great idea imagine that in burnt orange its already a nice jacket, same as the monsoon but modified, would have been amazing!
