    Hello A.B. fully agree with you and send them several mails and suggestion. Answer was, its good enough and no complain so far. Despite this I ordered precisely the same jacket in 48" than pictured here. Still waiting for it. Cheers

    Wanted RMNZ ANJ-4 Size 44

    Aero has the best hides and craftmanship, but their zippers and stuts are far away from the originals or more importantly far away from other repro makers.Other prime repro makers have much better ( and reliable) metalware. Just ask for details from Aero and compare to others and or original...

    Willis and Geiger B-3 jackets.

    Sure, paying 1K is buying it new...and to highly priced (unless made on order). Two RW B-3 from Eastman were sold for 460 Euro on Ebay.de, just very recently.... Anayway, good luck.

    Willis and Geiger B-3 jackets.

    Sorry to read your misfortune, but: 1) maybe buy less jackets and save for a good one, 2) right now 2nd handed Good Wear, Eastman, Aero, BR, RMC, sell for very low money... None is receiving 1-2K for a repro nowadays. Sorry my humble ( experience) opinion.

    Willis and Geiger B-3 jackets.

    Saw a few W&G jackets made in the 80ies..."cheap" by all means. No wonder they dont exist anymore. A golden rule which applies everywhere: you only get what you pay for.
