    Alexander Leathers opinion needed.

    If it were me, I'd ask for a complete remake. A brand new jacket made by a premier manufacturer should have zero issues. Maybe one problem arises and it gets fixed, ok, still acceptable. But 6 months in and the back and forth shipping and fixing and retrofitting, it wouldn't give me a...

    You must google "Wookie-fur brush" to find what you're after. Chewbacca is a proper name of a specific Wookie.:D

    Aero lining - Tartan or Cotton Drill...?

    Nothing tops that burgundy alpaca (?) lining in one of your Aero's, HD. Truly spectacular!

    Is this a repro M-422a?

    I believe it's a Gordon & Ferguson M-422a, dating to around 1942.

    All of a sudden.... she woke up!

    Ahh, this a very familiar scenario for most of us Worf. I can certainly commiserate with you my friend. Maybe the wives/girlfriends/significant others of FL members should be the ones getting the professional help? They could all share stories about how their husbands/boyfriends/significant...

    Stink extermination thoughts

    I've read on the Lounge that a washing with Woolite helps. Can you ascertain if it's the actual leather that smells bad or perhaps it's the lining? If it's the lining then a re-line could be an option. Good luck.

    1943 shipyard photo. Leather and denim

    I think the guys in the photo would get a real chuckle out of companies and consumers obsessed with replicating vintage 1930-1950 workwear.:D

    Famous People in Flight Jackets

    I've read that the very early contract M-422a jackets made by Willis & Geiger had very short sleeves, supposedly made that way because they were meant to be worn with leather gloves. M-422a jackets were usually longer in the body length then later G-1's. Perhaps the aviator in the photo was...

    ELC 1933 Werber made from their new Warhorse hide

    Great looking jacket Andrew! The slight taper to the sleeve is one detail I like in an A-2. I've seen photos of (and owned) A-2's from premier manufacturers where the sleeve end had very little taper and looked way too wide where the elastic cuff joined the lower end of the sleeve. You've got a...
