The Story of My Favorite Jacket. (B3 Bomber/Sheepskin)

[@vautry]

The concept of adding storyboarding to fashion videos is so sick, loved this

[@TheIronSnail]

Ty!

[@jonathanpforr3844]

Glad to hear your in a better place and i know the feeling…. Struggled with addiction for 15+ years and blessed to be alive and blessed to be clean/sober for 4 1/2 years today! Stay strong my man!

Hey Michael. Long time watcher, and to see how you have grown the nature of the content on this channel has been great. You're maintaining the same theme - but it has moved so far beyond what it was & far beyond what any 'lifestyle' vlogger might be doing - Your work of late has been incredible. I dont doubt that this self-reflective journalling with a side of menswear takes alot out of you timewise, and i imagine in the future that more important projects with have to take priority - if your output on this channel slows down i'll miss it, but i hope i'll still manage to be able to follow your tale somehow.

[@TheIronSnail]

Thanks for the kind words my friend! I plan to do the iron snail for a very very long time :) hope we all stick around!

[@EMCUEAY]

man, that was a rollercoaster of emotion which resonated. Its good to hear how much pressure you put on yourself at college and how it has shaped you today. Looking forward to the Matrix pants? Thanks again Mike

[@CYB3R2K]

Resident Evil 4 made this jacket ICONIC.

[@satchel5909]

Nah. World War 2 did

[@jacobvonloh69]

Glad you didn’t stop making films 🎞🎥 Keep em coming man, you’re killing it!

[@TheIronSnail]

Ty so much!!

[@bonsai5753]

Holy shit…your video quality, production, and shit everything else is amazing. I came here to see the Bomber jacket but your quality made me subscribe. Nice man.

[@JFANderful]

Only thing that makes a great jacket better is a story associated with the jacket! Love the video!!

[@TheIronSnail]

Thanks!!

[@advaitnawathe]

So glad to see that you didn't stop mate, you're definitely brightening up some lives through your videos for sure (corny, yeah😂🤷🏻‍♂️). I loved the video mate, the story added so much more to the jacket! I can't wait to see everything that you end up creating, keep nailing it🤙

[@TheIronSnail]

Thanks so much!

[@thechief043]

I appreciate everything about this channel. Really glad you stuck it out dude.

[@allen.t]

Love the quality of your videos! Really appreciate the in depth look at this amazing jacket.

[@TheIronSnail]

Ty!

[@MarkSenger]

I'm trying to get a nice B7 shearing jacket and wondering if you found a good site in America or Canada?

[@enzo3122]

Found this video on my recommended. Pleasantly surprised! Hope to see more videos of yours in the future. Keep up the amazing content :)

[@rubberlover666]

Hell yeah! The clips you showed of your school film look super dope! You should put it out online. Also, my sympathies for having to wear that bomber in your Brooklyn apartment which I know from experience is probably set to 110 degrees all winter with nothing you can do but open all of your windows.

[@TheIronSnail]

HOW DID YOU KNOW! I cook in here

[@shanecorwin731]

What a beautiful jacket and a beautiful video! (Also leather pants you say? Wink wink)

[@TheIronSnail]

SHANE KNOWS

[@CameronO]

Wow B3's looks so good! warm. I feel like it be too warm for the UK (maybe not Scotland). Great vid!

[@CameronO]

PS. I feel like "Paint the eyes first" needs to premier on KZbin!

[@TheIronSnail]

Thanks my friend!! And it already has!

[@wadsworth2351]

I myself am looking for a high-quality B-3 shearling jacket. Do you have any to recommend? That Buzz Rickson's is really cool, but somehow impossible to find. Let me know. Thanks!

[@BoxingLegends2024]

The reason it is paneled is because its less costly the more back panels the easier to make & match skins! The more panels the more seams the more chances of ripping less panels more cost because you have to get the proper skin to fit the whole back in one piece & its not easy or cheap

[@muthukumaranpk3856]

Great movie Michael! Loved it. So beautiful.

[@figsaregood]

Great insight on the Sheepskin. I didn't know about the goatskin lines. Looking forward to the leather pants - always been curious about those

[@TheIronSnail]

Thank you!

[@BB-gl7zt]

Ok now I need to watch Paint the Eyes First. I can't say I'm the biggest indie movie guy but I'm strangely compelled to watch it.

[@TheIronSnail]

It’s secretly out there somewhere!

[@onemind1nation242]

What is the name of the B3 bomber jacket in the movie u made its a great jacket

[@ericswanson998]

just bought a vintage schott b3. issue is, the arms are the right length but a little tight. do you know how to stretch it out? would love to wear a hoodie under it. thanks!

[@richiecook2305]

Now that masters of the air is out this style is gonna blow up (pun intended)

[@_-JR01]

Wolves are very big symbol in Italy. I'd always see me Italian dad growing up yelling "EL LUPOOO" whenever something awe strucking happened.

[@TheIronSnail]

Did not know that!

[@thecrowfliescrooked]

I swear you're baked in most of these...which is perfectly fine.

[@muthukumaranpk3856]

I wanted to share my music portfolio to maybe work with you on future projects. What would be the best way to reach you?

[@eastwestminds]

Michael, is that grey-ish sweater you put on when you were taking your shirt off the LL bean commando sweater? if so, how do you like it? my girlfriend got me the royal blue one for Christmas (so obviously I haven't worn it yet)

[@TheIronSnail]

Oh you’re in for a lovely sweater tbh! I’ve had it for 3 years now and it’s always served me so well and it’s not pilling at all!

[@eastwestminds]

@@TheIronSnail so great to hear! i'm glad you didn't permanently quit film, i always look forward to your videos, no matter what it is.

[@carlwest5936]

I want one so bad, but in Canada where I am fall is literally 2 weeks then its straight to -40. Im in love with the aesthetic, but functionally speaking it would be useless compared to my canada goose puffer and parka

[@lolly4961]

you could buy one off ebay for dirt cheap. its almost xmas

[@TheIronSnail]

Yeah that’s a tough temperate to rock anything in!

[@ruben1788]

I use this motorcycling in sub 20 degree temps, negative with windchill. You’d be comfortable living a desk jockeys life for sure

[@Richard_Lush]

I personally like the D-1 better. Much simpler design and you can layer underneath. I found the shearing on the B-3 too thick due to the nature of the altitude it was worn in. The D-1 was worn by ground crews so shearing is thinner. Collar is smaller too. Just my opinion on B-3s or even B-6s. It’s the D-1 for me. I can actually put an A-2 underneath it. Like your paint job on the back. Looks cool.

[@2aadam232]

I've been watching this video for ten minutes and I still can't tell if this is drake bell or not lol nice video tho

[@Putonyourbootsandjacket]

Sorry if I missed but what brand is this one?

[@TheIronSnail]

No brand tag :/

[@donforello7262]

Michael, I absolutely adore your videos and especially love how your style progressed over time - I believe you’re onto something big! I am simply curious to understand your setup, how you create these marvelous pieces of content! Would you share what kind of camera / lens / mic setup you use, as well as the softwares you utilize to cut & create fonts / images, as well as music? Looove and support!

[@TheIronSnail]

Thank you!! And yes! Sony A7III Sigma 24-70 f/2.8 Lark mic system (amazing) Adobe Premiere Epidemic sound for music!

[@brianagee2790]

Dude, I'm going to let you know this because I think you'd be into it. I just got my Padmore & Barnes X 3sixteen collab boot on the mail like 20 minutes ago. The things feel like walking on clouds. I'm going through my closet right now to see what I can get rid of in order to get me the other color. Try for yourself.

[@TheIronSnail]

Oooooooooh maybe i will, those look sweet!

[@MisterKnightly]

It's like you knew I was going to comment on the desk.

[@TheIronSnail]

I really and truly did

[@igorletovigorletov]

Your brown jacket is R.A.F. jacket, not B3;) i see zippers on sleeves and loops for belt on the bottom

[@dscrappygolani7981]

😂🤣. Just one question, what's a bobo? I'm glad you're back to making films. Your ideas and, more importantly, presentations are uniquely quirky. Just don't turn into another run-of-the-mill libetard.

[@friedpork_owl]

I want to know the job experience/criteria for parachute tester AND I would love to see these items tested in their natural environment;p). If George Bush Sr can do it on his birthday I think you owe it to yourself to at least consider it. And I’m sure Christian would do it in support. Also, I feel you on loosing yourself in a role/character you are playing. “In the heart of danger overcome it.” 30+ films is killing it my friend. Thank you

[@ben-qc4qj]

the b3 bomber on amazon looks nice, but worried its not good quality.

[@TheIronSnail]

I’d go used on eBay!

[@brianagee2790]

Yeah!

Yeah!!

I have an RAF Irvin flying jacket which looks better and much more substantial than the ones on this vid. You should get one and put them side by side for comparison.

[@TheIronSnail]

Not a bad idea!

[@GabobStrulli]

Nice to See u again

[@TheIronSnail]

Nice to see you too!

[@connorgreen5989]

The jacket is a little bit very ugly, but in that cool "If I don't put this on I will die" kind of way.

[@TheIronSnail]

A little bit very hideous!

Hey where can buy a high quality jacket

Less revue, more review. Cheers.

[@alanc6468]

I honestly don't think military leather jackets look good on anyone under the age of 35, not even Cameron O's A2. They look too bulky and are not appropriate for environments above freezing like they were designed to withstand.

[@TheIronSnail]

You know i kinda think that too but i always come back to them

[@CokeWithIceAndLemon]

Thats a horrible looking jacket, but i really love Michael! The Iron Snail for life!
