    New Bill Kelso Werber 1402-p in Russet Liberty HH

    Yes, Compare with the original I posted, the pocket flaps is a bit different, but I don't think GW get this right as well if you compare the photos on their website and the original I posted here. The width of stitching on the epaulets is a bit hard to tell from the photo, once again, if you...

    New Bill Kelso Werber 1402-p in Russet Liberty HH

    Well, I placed my order in July, but I keep change the spec of the jacket until August... I think the long waiting time of your jacket is because the surrogate is a new pattern and they short of seal brown leather? If they start last Monday, the jacket should be ready to ship next week I think.

    New Bill Kelso Werber 1402-p in Russet Liberty HH

    They have a long wait queue now, I finalized my order in August, and the jacket is ready this week. Also, if you want seal brow, badalassis cow hide or Victory HH, I think the waiting time is even longer now since they run out of these leathers.

    Bill Kelso's New Californian half belt, a new release I think.

    Oh, when I ordered the jacket, my measurements is a bit short but I was happy with it cause it is the length I want, but after some wear, it gets a bit shorter, so I asked Andy if they could extend the sleeve and the answer is yes, so I send it back.

    Bill Kelso's New Californian half belt, a new release I think.

    Saw my Werber on their FB page, looks really nice, and when I compare it with photos of an original, I can hardly see the difference. I will post it when I receive the jacket (which will be November, because Andy want to post it together with my Westfall after they fix the sleeve).

    The FL users guide to taking good pictures of your new jacket

    Most important, use a proper camera, not mobile phone. OK, I know all my photos are taken by mobile, and this is how I learned this.

    A-1 Jacket / A1 Flying Jacket - The ultimate Golden Era flying accessory!

    Thats true, the button issue has been discussed in a Chinese forum as well. I would not use that proxy for only one reason, they use a mobile phone number instead of a landline on the website.

    A-1 Jacket / A1 Flying Jacket - The ultimate Golden Era flying accessory!

    I know it is looks different, but it is button thats my point. Never said it is an accurate repro. And I agree with you that A1 looks odd. If you want to buy from Taobao, you have to register first, and also you need alipay to pay I think. which similar to paypal. TBH, I am still try to work...

    My seal brown horsehide A2 with weber sportwear 1939

    Still, As I said in another forum, the jacket is good, but, the colour is not a exact repro. In history, the Werber should be in russet instead of seal brown. But still, apart from the colour, it is a great work.

    A-1 Jacket / A1 Flying Jacket - The ultimate Golden Era flying accessory!

    Yes, thanks. I know which company it is now after Blackadder pointed its Chinese name here, they don't do Japanese market, as I know, most their Jackets are based on Real Mccoy. Their products are not that bad actually.
