    My New LW Dubow A-2

    Tadite, I don't know if your being funny or not, but with the fear of sounding earnest, or ardent, LW does have knits, but they are covered by the length of the leather sleeves.

    My New LW Dubow A-2

    Thanks Davey, I will heed your advice. I already have 7 original 'G-1' contacts from a Gordon & Furgison M-422a to a L.W Foster 55j14, (wanted one from every USN collar stamped issue). Still looking for that 7823 (aer). Surprisingly I have ended up with the majority being AN-6552's of varying...

    My New LW Dubow A-2

    I will definitely have the sleeves done Breton, but thanks JohnnyJohnny, you seem to get it, it fits like an original, not à la steve Mcqueen, with his slim cut chinos and 'perfect' A-2, for a film made in 1963. It's utilitarian, and the great original photos have a great worn, saggy lived in...

    My New LW Dubow A-2

    Thanks, I have a feeling I'm ging to live in it, eventually, when I ever have the money i'm going to work towards a GW Rough Wear 1401p I think, but I do have more of a thing for G-1's and their Monarch M-442 is beautiful.

    My New LW Dubow A-2

    Thanks, I know i'm gonna love this jacket. I have a nice collection of original G-1's which are all very slim cut, with this I liked the original issue look, which isn't perfectly tailored or fitted. I doubt I'll grown into it being 26, and 5ft6and a spit, but it's a nice thought Feltfan. Wish I...

    My New LW Dubow A-2

    Well, it's a 34" chest, and as small as they come, but it's doesnt' feel too big, nor look too big in the flesh. Thanks for your concise constructive in put though

    My New LW Dubow A-2

    Just received this, brand new Lost Worlds A-2 for $350, very please with it, sleeves are a bit long, and the pocket/collar snaps are not nippled (to upset any authentic nipple twiddlers out there) but wow, what a jacket. Wanted a good repro, for a while, and stumbled upon this. The leather, as...

    London Tailors.

    thats interesting, I'll have to look into him, some photos would be great, I'm a short-one so any 40's cuts make be look completely un-proportioned, but the styles are always nice, if i could get him to cuts me some with a slimmer leg, for £35 that would be a steal. thanks

    Looking for a lost worlds ryder russet 36

    LW Ryder or A-2 I have just received a brand-spanking-thicker-than-armour new A-2 made by LW, picked it up for a steal, it's in a size 34, but if you look on the sale section or lost worlds you can get a 34 for £375. the arm on mine are longer than I expected, and the chest could definitely...

    Original H.L.BLOCK M-445a for sale (photos) Open to offers

    no longer for sale, spent so much time trying to sell it to anyone who'd take it, ended up selling it back to myself. Anyone know a good shearling leather resoration/ repair guy? I wanna get the left sleeve sorted once and for all and maybe wear it a bit

    London Tailors.

    All seem interesting, but maybe I did just mean, 'where do you go to get your stuff tailored to fit, or altered' they guy I use as I said is good, but maybe a bit conventional for my taste, I wouldn't mind finding a tailor with a bit of flare.

    ok cheers, I can't afford to go bespoke either, but maybe one day.

    London Tailors.

    Can't seem to find any info on here specifically about sharing tailors information and reviews/opinion, so thought it would be a good thread. If there is one if someone could point me to it, that would be great. I use Ramon Tailoring (http://www.ramontailoring.co.uk/) for alterations, and...

    M-43 Style boots

    haha, almost too perfect, they look good like that, and i had a strugge to do it, but after taking the plunge I never looked back. And these boots were made for dubbin'. Having said that I am also looking at buying the USMC Boondockers with a more slender style, which weren't meant to be dubbed...

    M-43 Style boots

    There are many different rough out types, ours, the un-riveted ones are the USN boots, and a perfect replica. I was a bit confused when I first got mine, but there you go. The heel was a bug bare with me too, sole fine, but heel isn't the nice biltrite style as on the web. They're from an much...

    F/S Eastman Luftwaffe Flight jacket size 42R

    Nice jacket, similar to the French Air Force flight jacket. Have you seen the M-445a I have listed? I'm surprised no ones made an offer yet.
