    My goatskin Cheyenne...after some wear

    I'm satisfied with the room, thinking that the Cheyenne is not a slim fitting coat. I use a 42 chest size and, in this size, the jacket is OK for me.

    My goatskin Cheyenne...after some wear

    This is my black steerhide Cheyenne, in the third year of use. Heavy, hard to wear and not too much comfortable nor very warm (in spite of the alpaca liner), but it's a wonderful jacket, with a lot of personality. People asked me in the street about this fantastic garment, made to be loved.

    The Spanish Civil War

    Hi again, from Madrid. For what is worth, I post some photos of myself as SCW reenactor (2005-2008). Reenacting of SCW continues here in Spain but, in my opinion, with less success that we hoped in the beginning. To many people, its an "ugly" topic (not for me). Well, now I'm retired as...

    Aero 1930's Halfbelt, just arrived

    The boots are "What Price Glory" british officer polished brown ammo boots repro. Leather soles, no nailed but they have metal reinforcement on heels. In my opinion, they are perfect for a 30's and 40's civvie impression. Regards.

    In which WWII army should you have fought?

    The Red Army photographer goggles are easy to find (and cheap) in www.frontofrussia.com. The french officer goggles are harder to find: they are british, early days of WWII. Really, the frenchmen soldiers of Division Leclerc used US goggles, but some officer, as the own Leclerc, used this...

    The Spanish Civil War

    I would like to speak and to write english much more better than now to express my opinions and discuss, with real data, the truth about the Spanish Civil War. But only I can say some things: in 1936 my father was a young falangist that participated in the military uprising of the Cuartel de la...
