    john waynes coat in true grit

    That's a pretty good looking Pike Brothers jacket! I think River Junction's jacket is much closer, though. They need to add photographs of a person wearing it (front, back, side) to get a better idea of fit. They way the advertise it, currently, doesn't add to it's appeal. In saying that...

    john waynes coat in true grit

    I think that River Junction Rio Bravo coat is the closest (maybe only) reproduction that you'll find, at this point...unless you find a vintage piece that's even closer. - Ian

    Buzz Rickson B-15 - pic heavy

    Same experience for me. I wear a 38 suit jacket and have 3 Buzz jackets/coats. They're all size 38 and fit perfectly. - Ian

    Sizing of Pike Brothers Jackets....

    Scott, That's a good looking Bronco. I own a GW Bronco in this pattern and they are roomy in the lower torso. For some reason there is a misconception out there that this Bronco pattern/contract is very trim/slim fitting. It's really not. I like the pattern a lot. It's versatile, in my opinion...

    Sizing of Pike Brothers Jackets....

    Keeping my fingers crossed for you, Worf. Hopefully, it will be just fine. It seems like everyone to a man says that the jackets are very well made. Let's hope that it fits in all the right places. - Ian

    Aero Type 3 Trucker Jacket

    Lee started making their "trucker" type jacket, Lee 101-J, in 1946 (if not earlier) and the pattern didn't change through at least 1980. - Ian

    That's great! Does the fence have any structural issues? It's really great looking. How long have you lived in the house? - Ian

    Mark, I'll be going to Glaser's, for sure. Maybe not until Fall, but I'll be there. When I go, I'll give you a full report. I mentioned it to my wife and she's very interested, as well...lol Yes, Forlini's is great. It's not a "fancy" place such as Il Gattopardo, for example. Though, I would...

    Vintage roadside

    Forgive my tardiness, but I just saw this post. That bakery is beautiful, Mark! I'm going to have to stop by. It looks like a great place in every way. Along the same lines, but a different type of eatery, is Forlini's on Baxter Street in Manhattan. It's 71 years old. I'm not certain...

    Sizing of Pike Brothers Jackets....

    I bought a Pike Brothers Navy (navy colored too) front zip deck jacket, a few months ago. I emailed them about which size I should get and also looked at the measurement provided. I chose the best size for me from the information provided. The fit of the jacket through the shoulders and torso...
