My favorite repro company is Buzz Rickson's, not only for flight jackets and other militaria but also for their parent company's (Toyo Enterprise) 1930's and 1940's civilian workwear and motorcycle gear. They offer a very diverse and constantly changing line of merchandise, ultra-high quality...

Well Shamus, you are either mistaken or Ken was feeding you (or the rest of us) some kind of spin. On the Aero site they consistently use the various leathers purchased for LVC orders to manufacture "regular" Aero jackets and describe these leathers as being more expensive then what they'd...
Man, I would just love to have seen old Archie tripping his brains out on acid spanking Dyan Cannon over his lap, sevants assembled to watch.I suppose it's every man's dream, really. A suave gent.
