This is a question I’ve had for a while.
I think it’s safe to say that the B-3 (and other heavy sheepskins; Irvin, ANJ-4 etc) are very cool, iconic jackets.
However, one sticking point seems to be just how usable they actually are. Let’s face it, these are big, heavy and incredibly warm. The question is: are they too warm to actually get any real use out of?
I’m considering an ELC or Aero B-3 because I just think they look awesome - but then I question whether they’re worth the (high)...
Are B-3s a waste of time and money?
