Where can I get a copy/replica of my jacket?
Clothes of Asian origin have no appeal to me. Smacks of cheaply made, poor quality clothing sold for extortionately marked-up prices. Like the offerings of most high street fashion outlets of today. Also neither of us are American prospective customers. We are both located Europe it would seem...- John_Z

Received my new Lost Worlds Buco J23 (also comparisons to other jackets)
Looking good dude. I envy you. I've had one of these for many years. 4oz+ HH. It's by far the heaviest, stiffest HH jacket I've ever owned. As for the main zip I went for the WWII sprung Crown upgrade. It's the other end of the scale to yours & wouldn't look out of place on a piece of luggage...- John_Z

Where can I get a copy/replica of my jacket?
By sheer coincidence I have long been looking for someone who could copy one of mine in a POW check cloth for me. I too have considered Magnoli but, being in the UK would prefer someone closer. A leather Harrington, for me, just wouldn't be 'right' but I wish you luck in your quest, although I...- John_Z

Oh right, that wasn't obvious from the pic. Just wondered as I'd love to show off more boot but have never felt comfortable that I could get away with the legs of my jeans short enough to do it. After my last post I checked these out on Ironheart's website. Luckily for my bank balance they're...- John_Z

Damn you just when I thought I had enough pairs to keep me happy you go & dangle these in front of me :) Absolutely beautiful. Tell me, do you wear your jeans cuffed that short or is this just for the sake of the picture?- John_Z

Wow I've never seen those RRL's. I'd sell my soul to own a pair of those. Loving those White's too. The brand next on my want list.- John_Z

Cheers fellas. Here's a label pic. My first Canadian HH Excuse the non-representative colouring in these pics taken with a phone in poor electric light. I've reshaped the collar to my liking & added HH leather pulls to the main & chest pocket zips A better proportionally accurate view of...- John_Z

As far as I know Julian made the 1st rendition & Murdock the 2nd. The current version is made in Pennsylvania. If there was a 4th maker I have no idea who it was. Here's links to the 3 I've mentioned: http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=3222.0...- John_Z

Right I see where you're coming from now. None of my boots have cushioned footbeds apart from the cheap and cheerful Xelement's. My WESCO's are vintage so pre-date that step in their evolution. My feet aren't used to such cosseting so don't suffer because of the lack of it.- John_Z

I don't agree with this. Mine are every bit as tough as my WESCO's and able to give comparable support and protection. Not at all like dress boots. They do have a sleeker and more aesthetically pleasing shape though. As I posted earlier a particular feature of them is the super thick (and tough)...- John_Z

Very nice. I hope you get many years of enjoyment wearing them. I wear mine hot or cold. I have other kinds of footwear but tend not to wear it nowadays. Thank you. That's very true my friend but I have no hope of finding most apparel I buy in a store local to me. Hi Alex I'm no expert. I...- John_Z
