Let me say, nice jacket. It almost makes me want to do business with G&B again. I have a bit of a long story that I would like to add here, so bear with me. About two years ago, I ordered an Expedition from G&B. From order to delivery it was about 6 weeks. This first jacket was perfect in every...
I need some info on Paratrooper boots. Who makes the best repro? My choices seem to be the following. Corcoran/Cove, which I am wearing right now, (more on that in a minute)...

WPG...
And WWII Impressions, not really in the running as they are made by Cove I...

How does he know who to sell to and who not to sell to? Technically, I suppose anyone wearing an A-2 not currently serving in the United States Air Force is playing dress-up. This guy included. It is, after all, a military issue garment. [huh] I suppose if you...

I have a Macinaw cruiser from Filson which is about the best wool coat I've ever worn. Why can't I find a calf length over coat made with this quality wool? All of the mens coats I see in stores are usually a wool/cashmere blend. This feels wimpy to me. I like my Mac cruiser because it is so...
I've never found a vintage hat that fits me, so I can't say I've ever found anything in one. I like to keep vintage pin-ups under my lid. I once found an old 20$ bill pressed into a book I bought for 25c at a flea market.

Check out the nice Cavanagh hat with box! I called about it and it is a 6 3/4, (unfortunately for me). I didnt ask about the price, but I did tell her that it would go for a pretty penny on Ebay :)
