    Leather Pea Coats?

    I bought a late 30s early 40s german pea coat style. Think Dr. Who jacket but in brown. This is a great jacket but in addition to this purchase I also bought a custom Lost Worlds jacket off of ebay. The LW is 4oz horse hide and in a cafe racer style like the Schott 641. I've never seen...

    A-1 Jacket / A1 Flying Jacket - The ultimate Golden Era flying accessory!

    Doug, Nice Coat. Did you talk to Gemma about this project? If not, who does one talk to about having Wested do specialty work? What is the leather thickness/ weight? I have some ideas for modifications to the u-boat/Dr. Who coat Wested sells and am interested in finding out who to...

    Looking for a cheaper version of this coat..

    Doghouse, you picked a good one. I can't seem to convince my wife that our lives would be better if I bought this coat. She's a tough sell. In an case, are you looking for the U.S. peacoat in leather/horsehide or will a foreign peacoat do? Aero makes one new called the Mariner ($804) it's...

    'Das Boot' Jacket

    BellyTank, You make a good point about some of the styles being civilian non- war production. I had not thought of that. This gives me some hope that there might be some coats still in circulation. Still, not easy to find an original.

    'Das Boot' Jacket

    I have the director's cut. Great film. Yes, I understand what you are saying about how many sailors didn't come home. And therefore lack of origionals to be found today. Still I wish more people found the timeless Navy look more appealing. Then there might be more manufacturers making...

    'Das Boot' Jacket

    I ordered and received horsehide samples from Wested as I too am interested in the Das Boot- Doctor Who coat. They were prompt in sending out the samples and were quick to answer any questions I had. I also found that the coat could be ordered in goat skin as well. Wested uses horsehide that...

    Leather Pea Coats?

    I am new here and can see the forum members know much about quality clothing. As I'm also new to vintage/ quality coats, perhaps I can also beg some help from the forum. I am very interested in the pea coat and would like to buy one in horsehide. Can anyone tell me what places might sell or...
