https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/fs-rainbow-country-leather-down-vest-horse×cow-size-m-40-42ish.96771/
can sell both for EUR 800 +shipping, i believe it's a very sweet deal
Well, details, hide, hardware, overall craftsmanship.
Like if i see flathead jacket, freewheelers jackets- they are special because of the overall quality (craftsmanship+ hide+ hardware+ amazing details, designs, etc).
Like for example i got a real mccoy buco j-24, and it's not special...
Nice jacket! congrats! question: is LW quality is still top? Is it a good idea to purchase it in 2019? i do very like LW leather togs jacket, but i think read somewhere here what LW quality dropped, but this jacket above is perfectly made, so im a bit confused now :)
SelfEdge selling them in USA, i tried one jacket in LA, its nice but nothing special imho, all the hype is because it develops brownish patina and overall "vintage look" very-very-very fast.

Great stuff!
i personally have rainbow country leather down vest and i must say quality is top notch! Saw rainbow country b-3 here http://shop.mushmans.com/?pid=45500267 Price is an overkill, but leather and construction seems very nice!
That's a very interesting news! Do you have contacts...
Can confirm what Saphir Renovateur works good on CXL.
Used it on my Merlot CXL Vibergs, wore them kinda hard, and now they looks almost like new but with good patina :)
i have horsehide US Wings A-2.
Leather is okish, but knits and zip are just terrible after 1 year of wear.
Plus some details of the fit i really don't like: arms are too wide, collar is too big.
So IMHO better to look at the other maker.
maduro 5, yes we are proud of our history. very.
But those NKVD leather coats are terrible, actually many russians disagree with the idea of this tender.
Big thanks for answers and John specialy for pictures!

For me was a big surprise how good and trim Eastman B-3 fits...
