    Bruce got the juice - Bruce Willis' Jacket

    Depends if you're looking for real replica or a fake replica... :rolleyes: ;)

    Closing in an a MILLION POSTS!

    Very good! Doubt it'll see off the "How can I make a new jacket old without wearing it?" queries, but it's the thought that counts... ;)

    Of mouton collars...

    Congratulations on this impressive achievement! Did you make the pattern yourself from the start or did you adapt an existing one?

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    The trimmer heel, I think, makes the 'traveller' heel work much better - more pleasing to the eye. Good work.

    All Things Khaki - Clothing the Vintage Adventurer

    I'm with you, 1961. All but the most greasy stains should wash out ok, surely.

    Suggestions?

    That's the general meaning of 'bomber jacket' in the UK (short light jacket with elastic waist) — at least it was the last time I thought about it...

    The Humble Anorak.....

    I just looked further. Seal pizza? :eek: Would it be possible to get the pelts de-furred, I wonder? Not a great fashion statement, but the anoraks I was thinking of seem to be more skin than full pelts.

    Why all the hatred towards black leather jackets?

    The numerous examples of brown leather jackets in the past show this not to be the case. Do you mean the recent past? Not heretical, but orthodox (see Wild Hogs above).

    BOARDWALK EMPIRE (HBO) - Everything you wanted to bootleg about the Show!

    Deadwood finished at just the right point, I reckon. I want more of it, but I'm happy with what there is.

    The Suits you see on Ebay? Any tips?

    Some questions back at you, just for clarification: What kind of suits are you looking for/at? What fabrics do you want? As to how you can tell whether something's worth whatever is being asked for it, or whatever you want to pay for it, that's down to experience, and that you may just have...

    French Designer-30's Inspired

    I get your drift. My wife has expressed her approval, should I find some spare cash.

    Aero Half Belt - Dry Leather or not??

    Doesn't look unusual. Leather's all-natural and no two jackets will show exactly the same wear, but similar patterns showed on my old Highwayman. Also, the colo[u]r's sprayed on, so there'll be lighter patches where the most abrasion and colo[u]r-loss occurs.

    What are you wearing today??

    Thought I recognised the cuff and general shape. Well, I like them!

    French Designer-30's Inspired

    I'd wear it happily...although, with a couple of place-exceptions, not in the provinces.

    French Designer-30's Inspired

    Here's some Guyot product: jackets mainly. I see what you mean about the footwear, Flat Foot, but they look good to me and go together well with the other items. The trousers I'm not so keen on, but that's the uninformed fashion market for you...

    What are you wearing today??

    Are they the same pattern and maker as your excellent grey/blue trousers?

    Date the Cooker

    The design of a casing, while appearing similar to a 'traditional' or brand type, may mask a host of differences in the design of the frame, component parts and component housings, etc. So not necessarily a late-30s/early-40s design carried through to a later date.

    Date the Cooker

    I agree with BT. This image is from 1952. The legs and handle on the one in the OP look newer to me, as does the transfer-printed (as opposed to name-plated) brand name. Up till the 80s British-designed 'white' goods tended to look very old-fashioned.* Edit: * In retrospect, that is. And in...
