    B6 - Who makes the best?

    But...do RMNZ do "redskin" material? RMNZ need a way better website, too! And, off on a slight tangent (well, this IS a cocktail lounge..!) where oh where will I get the best ANJ-4? Only ELC and Lost Worlds still seem to make them!

    B6 - Who makes the best?

    Hi Thanks; that would be my initial thought based on A2's I have seen; however, sheepskin being a different kettle of fish I thought it worth checking with the community at large! Shame Aero don't make an ANJ-4!

    B6 - Who makes the best?

    Despite an ongoing (and, I suspect, ultimately undeniable!) desire to own an ANJ-4, I have decided that a B-6 would be a more wearable jacket. I like the vegetable-tanned, hand dyed approach of the so-called "redskin" jackets (if for no other reason than I don't like chrome waste from...

    IRVIN NUTS?...the ULTIMATE thread for those who love 'em!

    Aero! My vote is for Aero, personally. I have owned jackets from both and found Aero more realistic. I don't think there is much love lost between the two companies though!

    Should I get a Whangee?

    Mess Hockey Brigg umbrelleas on a stick frame (usually of solid Hickory or similar) are excellent for using as hockey sticks in informal Mess Hockey tourneys! OK - that is a peculiar thing to we Englishmen perhaps - but you could substitute your office for the Mess!!

    Tom James Custom Shirts

    Harvie & Hudson This is where you will find my pattern, resting on a dusty shelf in Jermyn Street. It awaits my clarion call to the excellent and accommodating Mr Harvie "Please make up 3 shirts in Tattersall Check to my usual pattern and forward at once to me in New Zealand!" Perhaps the...

    Swaine, Adeney & Brigg 54 St. James's Street London SW1A 1JT United Kingdom Tel 0207 409 7277 Fax 0207 629 3114 Surely the place where Steed's Whangee came from and the only place for a gentleman to shop for such a thing! Tally Ho!

    Shockingly horrid attire

    Horses for courses... Good afternoon, Ladies and Gentlemen Surely the hardest part is a journey that departs in one climate and arrives in another? For example, in December I depart Wellington NZ (it will be summer and around 25 Centigrade) to arrive in Osaka, Japan (winter, around 5C!)...

    Seeking advice on painted B6

    Good day to you all I have decided that my next acquisition will be a painted B6. Much as I love the B3, I think it would be less practical for regular wear. At present, I am leaning towards either a redskin Aero Leather Clothing version or a Real McCoy version but advice on that choice is...

    IRVIN NUTS?...the ULTIMATE thread for those who love 'em!

    Real McCoys So how do these compare with Aero/ELC? There's certainly no shortage of raw material here, that's for sure..!! However, apart from the photo at the start of this thread I have never seen a RMC version. Pip pip

    IRVIN NUTS?...the ULTIMATE thread for those who love 'em!

    Aero for sure! Hi All I would say Aero Leather Clothing for sure; I have both Eastman and Aero (and have had Aviation Leathercraft in the past) jackets and certainly as far as A2 jackets go, Aero are miles ahead in quality terms. Where does that New Zealand made jacket in the pictures...
