Bomber jackets are not really my cup of tea, but I like this one.Buzz Rickson ma1 came. I like the fit a lot but feel like it has a lot of material around the armpit, is that just an ma1 thing?

The fit pic of the back is one of the best fits I have ever seen. These old pattern-makers knew what they were doing. They are putting some modern makers to shame.It has arrived and it is glorious!

Yes. Really unique cuff design. You can wear them 3 different ways. I’ll take pics when I can. (all the buttons are there too!)And I was wrong about the cuff! Do they fold over and button back like some of the Herc’s?
That’s just like the Cali made Hercs. It’s a super cool design. I think this one demands a thread or at least a very long review in Terry’s old clothes thread. I have to admit these pics paint a totally different view of the jacket. Your gamble paid in spades.Yes. Really unique cuff design. You can wear them 3 different ways. I’ll take pics when I can.

That is a beauty. Love to see that Flathead denim as well! Their 3004 cut is pretty much the only denim I wear.It has arrived and it is glorious! California Sportswear aviator. Talon zipper dated May 1939. Leather on this guy is one of the nicest I’ve ever seen or handled.

Thank you. Mine are the 3002 and it’s my favorite pair of jeans I’ve ever owned.That is a beauty. Love to see that Flathead denim as well! Their 3004 cut is pretty much the only denim I wear.
Amen on your sentiment regarding vintage cuts - they will be the Gospel for time eternal as far as I'm concerned, they just cut with golden proportions back then.
