    Which A2 would fit me best?

    After looking at the Dubow A2s a bit, Id have to say they do seem to look more crisp than other patterns for some reason. I think I'll do that one. If you had to pick between the two, would you choose Bill Kelso or Lost Worlds? Those look like the two companies in my price range. Unless there...

    Which A2 would fit me best?

    Ive been looking at A2s a bit and would like to get something fairly nice, but Im having trouble figuring out which patterns would fit my body shape the best. I never really notice the difference between them in pictures on like, but from what I hear that depending on the patterns and contracts...

    D1 pockets on a B3- Yes or No

    Howdy Folks, I have an Orchard Branded B3 with just the map pocket and for the past couple weeks Ive been pondering the idea of having D1 style zip pockets added to it. What is everyone's opinion on that idea? Would that be sacrilege? I was also wondering, for you fellows out there with D1's do...

    How should a B3 fit?

    This is probably a really dumb question but I have been unable to find the answer myself. I have a B3 by Orchard Branded Leathers in a size 42. I measured my chest and I am almost exactly 42 inches but when I wear size 42 jackets they feel fairly snug in the shoulders even with only a t-shirt...

    John Connors Jacket

    I know I may be terribly behind the curve on this one but I just picked up Terminator Salvation for $5 the other day and gave it a watch, and a little over 15 minutes through I thought there was something extra cool about John Conner. I saw the Shearling and buttons on his shoulders and thought...

    Building a Bomber Jacket

    Does anyone know where I can get shearling hide that is tanned/enameled on the non-fuzzy side close to WWII specs. I can find hides that are the natural skin tone, but none that are treated that would look anywhere close to WWII acceptable. I want to make my own D1,B3, or B6 but the is providing...

    New Orchard B3 Jacket PHOTOS

    Howdy Ladies and Gents, I just got home after spending 10 months studying abroad in Germany. About 3 months into my experience I decided that my G1 was not at all equipped for German winters, so I started combing ebay for a B3 which was as close to original as I could afford. I also wanted to...

    Photo Gallery?

    This may be a really really stupid question, that could have been answered with a little more research on my part, buuuut does this site have a photo gallery where you can just click on the model of jacket you wanna see and be able to view everyones collection? If yes, can you link it please...

    Can you show me your US Authentic A-2s

    Thank you so much! These pics are fantastic, exactly what I needed. The HH looks much better after having been broken in. I still have some deciding to do as whether to go with goat skin or HH. For some reason I am still leaning toward the HH, but that might just be because it has that "Oh wow...

    Can you show me your US Authentic A-2s

    Does anyone have a photo of a really well broken in US Authentic A-2 preferably in russet? From all the pictures I see floating around the internet, it looks like it almost has the color sprayed on in some acrylic like coating, and I was wondering if it looks more like real leather after a few...

    Anyone have experience with US Authentic?

    Howdy Folks, Ive just got a few quick questions about US Authentic because I cant find any decent reviews of them anywhere. Im in the market for a B3, which I would like to have as historically accurate as I can afford. I was hoping to spend about $1000 or less. I was darn close to biting the...

    Aero Redskin B-6: Anyone have pictures?

    Howdy folks, Does anybody have pictures of a Redskin B6 made by Aero. Id like to see what it looks like with someone wearing it and see what the leather looks like in a photo other than the one on the website. So far Ive only been able to find pictures of the seal brown one. Thanks all.
