Some Winter Favorites-Lost Worlds-Buzz Rickson-Bill Kelso

Had to get outside on New Years Day. Three of these jackets are just what I have been wearing this Winter season.

Great jackets Terry. Do you still have the shawl collared Buzz Rickson? That's one of my all time favorites of yours.

 

[Bfd70]

Awesome jackets don’t just grow on trees! Wait, what?

 

[Fonzie]

That Buzz Rickson A-2 is probably my favourite of your “current” collection. Beautiful stuff.

This one? Yes. I don't wear it much. Had a time finding a picture. This one is marked a size 40 and fits like a 42. I've thought about moving it. Probably too small for you.

Happy New Year Terry, what are your thoughts on the LW quilting?
A few people say it is too warm for its own good and makes the jacket hard to wear.
What do you think?

You know who to call should you ever decide to move it!

I haven't owned a LW with quilt lining. I think the lining that uses in the test really adds to the construction of the jacket. I don't know what the material is but is sure stiff

I will let you know. I just don't think it will fit you

 

[ton312]

I will let you know. I just don't think it will fit you

Worth a shot tho! I love that jacket. One of (if not the) nicest I've seen ala barnstormer.

Terry, glad to see from you again!
I very very like your videos, I actually think that it possibly adds some more extra value to leather jackets when you're handling them - 'cause you're such nice man! Seriously!)
Happy New Year!

What model is that Bill Kelso? It is very nice.

It is the tan one I assume?

 

[Lebowski]

What model is that Bill Kelso?

The Duke

The Duke

Thanks. The BK site is blocked here at work for some reason so I can't have a look right now.

I thought a Duke was a cross zip?

Yep. The Duke is a cross zipped jacket, Terry is wearing it in the beginning of his video.
That tan one you've been thinking of - is Buzz Rickson as Terry said in his video above.
Btw, why BK's official site is blocked in Canada?

Thanks for clearing it up.

Video is blocked at work so I could not see the videos posted. I was thinking the tan coloured Buzz Rickson was the Bill Kelso.

I am not sure why the BK site is blocked at work here. I can easily check their site later, at home but now that I know the jacket I liked is a Buzz Rickson, I will try and dig up more info on it.

I started reading about Bill Kelso here on the site yesterday. Some interesting stuff came up.

The Bill Kelso Duke is jacket I'm wearing when the video opens. It is a size 44 in Victory Horsehide.

thanks @Lebowski for clearing up. The Duke is always a show stopper. There is a Thedi in my size on ebay. It looks to be a very similar style. I have resisted the Thedi because I have the Duke. No, the Duke is not moving to make room. The Thedi does look nice.
