https://karbon2.myshopify.com/collec...12297263218769 or here with no liner https://karbon2.myshopify.com/collec...aviator-jacket This is the jacket and this is the only place/best price to get it, and it’s the only approved jacket. It has a liner that’s removable and not really needed unless it’s super cold. And it’s only approved if you have epaulets that Velcro onto it? And those Velcro epaulets can be provided by the base admin? And they run small? |
185 lbs, 5’8”, Scorpio. Medium fits perfect with the liner. There is a tiny bit of extra room when wearing the shell without the liner but small shell would have definitely been too small. I think there is mid-information out there that they run big. They don’t run big, it’s a shell, it’s meant to be worn over other outerwear. If you’re just wearing over your shirt then yes, there may be a bit of extra room if you go with your usual size. I got the liner for that one or 2 MSP midwinter overnights I tend to always get.
Definitely a nice quality jacket. Jacket came very fast. Ordered the day the email about the Karbon came out and it wa a delivered yesterday. What’s that, less than two weeks? |
True to size for me
I'm 5'6" and weigh about 155lbs and the small Karbon fits the same as my current Columbia (S) uniform jacket does. I blindly ordered the small because I rarely go to Detoilet and thankfully it worked out.
On that note, would it really have been that much of a bother to send the samples around to each base instead of leaving us to guess on sizing? Just a couple weeks in each of our to-die-for domiciles would have given most everyone the opportunity to decide if they want the jacket and what size fits best but I guess that was too much to hope for. |
Just in case anyone needs to hear the info...the FO Velcro epaulets are on back order, should get in around the 15th

Contact your base manager or chief pilot and they will drop some in your v-file. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
