    Whats difference between Buco J21 and J24??

    By pillion pockets, I assume you guys are talking about two vertical zipped pockets at the back of the jacket, right? Not the hand warm and the D pockets in front?

    Whats difference between Buco J21 and J24??

    I spend few hours try to find the answer online, but no luck... It is obvious that the lining is different, J21 uses wool and J24 uses nylon. Also, seems like J21 is a standard or wider fitting than J24, which is a slim fitting jacket. Apart from this, are there another difference?

    What should an A-2 looks like when you wear it unzip?

    Thanks everyone, I think I didn't make it clear at first place. I am very happy with the fit of this jacket. Just wondering whats happened to the waist when it unzipped. The sleeve of Werber contract seems wider than Dubow. But I don't see how the torso is larger than Dav's...

    What should an A-2 looks like when you wear it unzip?

    I am wondering how an A-2 should fit when it unzipped. By seeing Dave's Dubow today, it is fit perfect, and when it unzipped, the gap between the collar and the bottom almost the same. But my A2 Werber fits different, the gap between collar is small and getting bigger when it goes down. But when...

    Well, YOSHIYUKI HAYASHI, the former designer at DENIME, and now the founder of RESOLUTE, suggests to wash the jeans every week. Because in this way, your jeans will last much longer.

    A2 jacket for flying ace...true or not true?

    I've been told a very interesting story about A2 today. But I am not sure if it is right or not. So can anyone confirm this story? Here it is: I've been told that during WWII, in USAAF, the A2 issued to flying ace (scoring more than 5) is in red knits and red lining. Regardless of contract...
