They also have a cool Eisenhower and the Redrock jacket is nice.

actually their cool Eisenhower jacket looks to be a B13 jkt. Which was more of a flight jkt for the aircorp. So not a true 'ike' , but very cool!
Note the handwarmer pockets.

Sorry Bern, my original post should have had better punctuation. I didn't mean the Redrock was and Eisenhowser. But it is nice also.

I own the M1912 jacket that Spiewak makes. It's a lot warmer than you'd expect it to be; very nice.

It is warm. I bought it, thinking that it would be a good fall jacket. But I think it's warm enough to be a mild winter coat too.

Would love to see a pic of you in the 1912 jkt!
I passed as one size was too small, & the next too large.
But I might scout around for one of the other styles.

I've been slacking with the camera as of late, but if I get home early enough tonight, I'll try to snap some shots.
