Modern "Grizzly" Jackets?

[CRAZYBUBBA]

I've been in love with this style since I'd begin researching vintage jackets. I, however, don't know much/anything about modern manufacturers

Can you guys let me know where/which brands you'd go to find this style? Apologizes to the poor animals who have died in the process RIP

IMHO, you have two alternatives: Himel, or . . . . Himel.

Which leaves you with two equally charming personae to potentially deal with. You get to pick though, being a unmanly sissy or being a picky communist.

On a more serious note; I love the Greater Generation Clothing Grizzly jacket. @casechopper owns one and it looks amazing. The maker is registered here at the forum and has presented a number of great works. @Steve S.

Thanks for the links, as you may have been able to tell, I was already leaning towards himel's. It's a thing of beauty. I'll wait for some more responses before pulling the trigger

Edit: I'm also very impressed by Toyo, real mcoys

I'm not fan of Grizzly's but of all of them, I think the Himel is easily the best looking.

TFL member @dudewhattheheck has one that could almost change my opinion of them

There is also the Schott El Camino:

I like the look of this jacket a lot in the photos I have seen, but I can't see myself wearing one.

 

[CRAZYBUBBA]

Lol, i actually own a lot of schott jackets (perfecto, A-2, G-1) and looked through their offerings.Also, a cow grizzly isn't really my style

The SJC Griz was very cool and priced very affordably as well. It takes a serious degree of confidence to wear one...I don't know if I posses it. At some point I'll need to find out.

Just in a subject, I have bought remarkable recently TOYS McCOY Grizzly jacket!
It is very happy. Excellent quality and breed!

У меня есть 3 куртки Потерянные миры.
Это первая игрушка McCoy ..
В отличие от других производителей и кожи. Каждый хорош по!

I own an Aero and also a Steve Sellers example the same as casechoppers. Both are great. There seems to be two polarising schools of thought with grizzly's. The hair on hide and the fur fans. Personally I like the fur. The hair on hide look great when new but are susceptible to hair loss over time. Old ones tend to look terrible. Fur grizzly's seem to mellow like fine wine.

Beauties no doubt. They are currently out of my price range. Maybe one day.....

[Mysteryo]

He told me it was a prototype, so Iguess he could make one especialy for you if you ask, Carlos
