    Where do I wear this

    Never could get my head around Burberry - too chavvy and you have to wonder where Chavs get the money to buy them. At the time I purchased it I didn't even cop the RRP. I was looking for a decent fleece to keep the cold out. Took a look later and it was reduced from 3600PLN to something less...

    Where do I wear this

    Could do but the goat suede is so fine I'd hate to foul it or damage it. It is a wonderfully luxurious piece of kit even if the tab says "made in china". The newer range from RL don't have the neck straps and maybe be better for that but I really wonder who pays out full price for these. One...

    Where do I wear this

    Silly question coming. Scored one of these at TK Maxx for a lot less than RRP (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RALPH-LAUREN-GOAT-SUEDE-VEST-WITH-DICK-DOWN-BNWOT-_W0QQitemZ310181933784QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxq20091115?IMSfp=TL091115158001r32498) Apologies for the link - pics are at the bottom - haven't...

    Purists, Afficionados?

    Hi Guys, Just curious as to who has modified their WWii jackets or gone for "modern concession" versions over reproductions, or do the majority here go for "as close to the real thing as possible"? Personally, on the hopefully soon to be delivered A2 from Aero, I requested matched...

    Check Out Aero USA's New Prices!

    Prices up on the UK website too... In fairness they haven't put their prices up for a couple of years so it is to be expected, and they are still cheaper than ELC

    What's on your wishlist?

    I have seal A2 on order from Aero - it was due for Christmas and giving what a few other posters have said I might just get it for my birthday in summer ;-) For _next_ Christmas I'm planning for a Seal B-6 and will probably order it in summer so I have it for next years "cold snap" as we...

    New Aero B-6

    Great jacket and Pics HighandDry, helped convince the wife that 'old fashioned' and ww2 designs are not that bad after all. One question though - I saw the pics on the Aeroleather Ebay site and the epaulettes' snap button appears to be set forward of the shoulder seam somewhat - is this the...

    B6 Questions

    Thanks for the input Guys, All noted. Only one question left - I'm leaning towards the B6 for a couple or three reasons Rarity, Style, Prestige Rarity - the B3 seems to be popular and have seen loads of knock-offs so the B6 should stand out. Also B3 is far too warm for Ireland - the lowest...

    B6 Questions

    Cheers Mark, No plans for the "0ff" brands - having seen them up close and owned both a full spec Aero A-2 and one of their trainee jackets there is no comparison - they hit at about half price but the quality is a fraction. HighandDry - Ireland and driving rain can go hand in hand - is that...

    B6 Questions

    Hi Guys, and gals, Great forum, it's nice to see there are still people who appreciate the quality of years gone by. Shame the companies are few and far between. I'm Irish and living in Ireland again and looking to pick up a military shearling. I'm in two minds between a D1 and a B6 and...
