Hi there guys,
i've recently buied a "Heinz Bar luftwaffe jacket" from Noble House Company in Germany.I like it,it's quiet good for its price(i think).

By the way,what i absolute hate are the breast zip pullers, so i would like to change theme with something like that:

You're absolutely right, Sgt, those original Noble House zippers are not nice. What were they thinking of?

Sloan i don't know, the jacket is ok but the zipper pulls are absolutely odd, they're a bad repro of the ww2 german ritsch zippers.:eusa_doh:...bah

Would Eastman or Aero maybe replace them for you at cost? The ones you posted look very similar to the ones I have on my Aero.

I think it's a good idea, maybe i can ask theme to sell me the zippers and try to replace theme by myself, so i can save the shipping charges.

Could you send me any photo of your Aero zippers please?I've checked in their website but these details are not so visible.

Thanks.

PS:Thank you Andy,i'll keep in mind your advice, just i'd prefer a nearer seller if posible, for the cheaper shipping charges you know:)

If you can live with the fact that they are clip on replacements rather than neat proper new zips have a look for "prym zip pulls" on google.

Not quite as neat but the easiest and cheapest option by a mile and no unpicking a seem to get at a zip to take the slider off or full zip replacement.
