What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[barnabus]

Helping with a house clearance again, so I'm wearing my Golden Mfg M-65.

I know what you're thinking; you can barely even see that I'm there. Because camo.

my Taylor's CMPD today.

it was dumping buckets out here in NorCal earlier this morning and I didn't expect to get caught in it, but the CMPD didn't seem too phased.
I was dry by the time it stopped and I had a chance to get this pic.

Trego's westwear wool blazer, and my halloween getup for walking our freind groups kids around the neightborhood. I didnt actually want to do a costume, so i just dressed vaguely like it was 1920. Aero x epaulette thorpe, and cidu leather brittish great coat.

does your golden have a metal or plastic zip ?
the old 1983 Winfield that I got from my dad has a metal Zip just like my 1977 Sew Sew Styles, but the 1987 Alpha that I bought unissued Surplus about a year ago has the plastic zip which was a disappointment.

Mine has the plastic zip.

Initially I was disappointed as I would have preferred brass. But actually the plastic zip is excellent. It's a huge YKK with a metal pull that works smoothly and fastens super easily, even with heavy gloves.

My jacket was issued by the Defense Personnel Support Centre in Philadelphia, in 1996. Because it's such a late issue jacket, the flip side of the plastic zip is that the jacket itself is in excellent condition. Not a mark or snag or a stain, inside or out. Even the velcro hasn't got any fluff stuck to it.

Issue or repro?

B-10 on a cold blustery autumn day. This jacket was a recent find on eBay, made by Ralph Lauren/Polo. Looks exactly like a vintage WWII B-10 with real Italian mouton collar and a nice distressed olive cotton shell. Instead of the original wool lining, this jacket has a goose down feather inner lining making it lightweight yet super warm. All the other details are accurate for a wartime B-10. Absolutely love this jacket, and it’s a real change from a leather G-1 (my usual go-to choice when leaving the house).
