Interesting thread. I'm curious about the style of rangoon shirts in modern setting. Has anyone worn these shirts with jeans, chinos, or khakis? Or is it still best to wear rangoon shirts with their corresponding trousers?

I bought this jacket from Cockpit USA in April 2017 but have only worn it for 2 months in 2018. Decided...
Having bought or tried both Eastman Rough Wear B-10 and Buzz Rickson B-10 Superior Togs (with rust-colored knits), I think both are great choices for a high-end B-10 repro. I love my Eastman B-10 (second hand) a lot and its dye is more appealing than the BR olive dye; the light gold-ish alpaca...
