There was a lot in the video that struck a chord with me. The Triumph, the jacket and the planes. I grew up with Triumphs in the 60's, a mate of mine at school had a flying jacket and I worked on military aircraft in the 70's. Enjoyable video, thank you.

your very welcome James!

Wow! New hair cut, beard cut, jacket, and an awesome Bike to go along. I think Stuart should be nominated as the next MOST INTERESTING MAN IN THE WORLD. Who agrees? Great video Stu with an excellent opening.

What a great introduction 👍👍👍very good jacket. Always looks good. Even decades later.

Nice to see someone wearing an open face with appropriate goggles riding a bobber. 😎

You deserve far more subscribers. Great content and well edited. Keep up the great work.

I got mine in the post today. It really is quality. The included Battle of Britain Spitfire-embossed garment bag was a nice surprise too.It has so far made hiding it from the missus a little bit easier. Loving the channel ,but between Motone and Goldtop it hasn't half cost me a small fortune since I discovered it!

Bellissimo video Stuart, location perfetta, l'iconico giubbotto B3 Irving della Raf e la splendida Triumph old stile, creano un'atmosfera magica, complimenti e buona fortuna ciao.

I got one for Christmas, Stuart. The only question, where's this been all my life.........? It's simply phenomenal. I've been advised to avoid getting it soaking wet. It weighs a ton if you do, and takes an age to dry. I proofed mine with Goldtop's water repellent balm, so let's hope for the best. Covers the small of your back even when leaning forward stance is adopted on my Thruxton, which is a God send, and I've not had a single issue with the buckle contracting the tank. Pricey? Yes........but worth every penny.

Could you please enlighten us with the sizing of the jacket? As a very pleased owner of two Goldtop leather jackets, I simply can't decide which size to order. How is the fit? Do u use any armoured base layer underneath?

@@christosersezer2215 Hi Christos I'd recommend getting a size up from your normal size as shown on Goldtop's guide. They are a bit snug otherwise, and seem to take an age to break in. Personally, I don't use any sort of armour with mine.

I've never heard a sheep say they were cold so they must be good.

An extremely good price compared to an Eastman which would be more of an exact copy but then this isn't trying to be exact, it's their own design to make it more user friendly, so well done to Goldtop.....Ding! Ding! Scramble!!

Great video Stuart, been looking forward to seeing this jacket reviewed.

Brilliant video Stuart! I really like this jacket. 👍😎🏍🇬🇧

It is a very nice jacket.. but I badly scratched the tank on my 1 month old speedmaster with the belt buckle that was on my Marvin Brando leather.. which I have now cut off my jacket.. so it can happen. Great video BTW. Ride Safe 🏍....... 🤟😎

"Untidy like the Americans" made me laugh. Great video, new sub from Stateside.

Superb, exquisite video and a cool jacket too.

Hi there, great video and great jacket... i'm thinking of getting the flying jacket from Goldtop... i noticed your jacket was a 48" and fitted you perfect... are the jackets true to size?

@christosersezer2215

That's a very good question. I too want to buy this but i'm a bit confused about sizing as I intend to wear this with an armoured base layer.

Thanks for showing this Stewart, nice jacket but a bit too warm for where I ride though I'm afraid. I did see some nice items on their site however. Since you like to highlight British motorcycle products and fashions, I would like to suggest another Brit classic, the Barbour International. I picked one up last fall and it has become my go to jacket over the winter. Very versital and it has proved to be a better choice then leather for me this winter season. I have seen pictures of no less a person (and Triumph enthusiast) then Steve McQueen wearing one. Hope you don't mind the suggestion, keep up the good work.

Where's the video on the 'Full Fillingham' on your head? 🏍

Well done.

Nice jacket for cold weather but not made for riding. Having said that I cant think of anything else that looks the part better on such a bike, enjoy!

You and Bobber Gentleman with a wild taste.

Hey Stu. So I went to the MOD and requested this jacket be added to my RAF kit list but was told in no uncertain terms to make do with my issued multi-terrain pattern gear. I thought "I know, I'll send Stu's Goldtop video. That'll convince those MOD bods". I received a rather rude reply saying that video I had forwarded was not by a certain Mr Fillingham but featured a rather severe looking submariner (3.02) who had obviously purloined the jacket for dubious enterprises. Ah well .... you can but try sir.

Sick 🔥🔥🔥

sheepskin hard to beat. Ask the sheep LOL

Looks nice, and I'm sure it's warm Just two concerns..(for motorcycling) 1) in wet weather, i'm sure the wool gets soaked up with water 2) the sleeves seem pretty thick at the wrests...so I supose: no way you can get your gloves over that

Only an inexperienced rider will tuck his sleeves inside his gloves Stiofan. Thats a perfect recipe for filling your gloves up with freezing cold water when it rains! Re the sheepskin soaking up water, leather jackets do exactly the same and some sort of waterproofing compound is sensible to keep it to a minimum there are water proofing sprays that will help the wool to repel water!
