    Fivestar NEW Capeskin Cossack 42r

    I ordered this 1930s Cossack jacket from FiveStar the minute their new Capeskin was available. It just showed up yesterday and I am blow away by the leather! It’s really awesome. The big bummer is I ordered the wrong size. I’m guessing Five Star runs large as this is a Size 42R but seems to fit...

    Thoughts one Mr. Freedom Campus Jacket?

    As of late I have been quite intrigued by the Mr Freedom Campus jacket. I was actually looking at a similar style by Bill Kelso, but because I feel somewhat untrusting of their time quote estimates I find myself not too keen on the made to order route, and am now pondering the Off the Rack...

    Bill Kelso Wait Times

    I have 3 BK jackets. A Duke, Grizzly, and A-1. Wait times were approximately… Duke in Victory Horse: 10 Months Grizzly: 15 months A-1 Liberty Horse: 10 months That averages out to 11.67 months wait time per jacket. I love BK jackets but the slot machine wait times are really frustrating...

    The TFL effect with buying and selling

    Yea, this jacket thing does tend to hook you in. When I started years ago all I wanted was a US Authentic B-6 to be my winter coat because I was tired of freezing my ass off in college….well I stumbled upon TFL and learned about the different makers, and zippers, and leathers…. I never did end...

    Eastman B-3 query

    I have an Eastman B-3. The cuffs are made of the same 1/4” shearling as your B-6 and mine are worn in the same way as yours. The thicker shearling doesn’t seem to wear away. It just compresses down slightly. It does wear away at the waist where the buckles are and maybe a little bit around the...

    WWII Impressions Tanker Jacket 42R

    For sale I have a barely used WWII Impressions Tanker Jacket. Stock size 42R. I wore it just a handful of times and then packed it away. Time to thin out the closet. WWII Impressions is one of the better reproduction companies out there specialized in WWII uniforms. The jacket is made in the...

    Bad CGI Masters of the Air?

    Howdy all, I just started watching Masters of the Air I’m 3 episodes into it and I find myself being very distracted by the CGI. I have to say I feel like the CGI is just not up to par. Does anyone else feel the same? I feel like I’ve seen better CGI in movies over 10 years old. The bombers...

    Vintage 1933 Wool Plaid Work jacket

    That jacket is super cool! It’s hard to say for sure if it’s Woolrich or not, my gut instinct says it probably is another brand. I’d know by the feel of it. Woolrich wool was usually softer and fluffier than other companies Woolrich also put their size labels in a different spot. It’s got...
