    Has anyone heard of Lambspia's Lambskin Shearling Jacket?

    I don't know if the link will work but this is the one I was looking for... http://www.ebay.com/itm/261347049618?_trksid=p2046732.m570.l4469&_trkparms=gh1g%3DI261347049618.N17.S2.M-654

    Has anyone heard of Lambspia's Lambskin Shearling Jacket?

    I've seen some of those on Ebay which claims that they are in the style of the wartime pilots...anyone would have more info or experience on this Lambspia company? Google doesn't give much clues either on the name. All I found was that they are Korean of origin and that they lasted for about a...

    Is that me or...

    Yes, maybe i should have gone to Aero to make my order as i hear a lot of positive reviews about them...maybe a racer coat or a Eastman USAAF B-3...ah spending and control, almost unbearable...DHL now told me it should be a day or two before i can receive my coat...why am i getting nervous right...

    Is that me or...

    it is indeed a lesson learned but i am still baffled at the sheer amount of the duty i have to pay for the coat. I mean, it's not like i've ordered alcohol or tobacco, which i do understand it is highly regulated and taxed at Customs, but whatever happened to the fact of opening one self to...

    Canada Customs doesn't like it when you're ordering leather jackets from the UK or anywhere else in Europe...? I ordered back in May this nice jacket from Cirrus: http://www.flyingjacket.com/products/leather-flying-motoring-jackets/ben-jacket/ with some modifications and "custom made" but it...

    Pre- WW2 Wool A-1 Spearhead Militaria

    Well i've read the whole thread and yes he had a good quality coat in the beginning but then the second one was a flunk it seems. Although if he had doubt about the leather quality, he could return it without putting it in a dryer and making a treatment on it. I guess i was lucky...

    Cirrus Discount Before 1 June

    It s true they will honor the 15% off until wednesday as i am in talking with them right now for an eventual purchase. Stuart is a very nice guy to speak to and seems very open minded if you have ideas and such for your coat.

    Pre- WW2 Wool A-1 Spearhead Militaria

    Hey clint, i can tell you that you won't be deceived with Spearhead jackets and coats if you aren't looking for an original garnment but something close to it. I did buy a leather jacket from them and i am very happy with it as it is very beautiful and nice to wear. You should give them a chance...

    What are you listening to?

    Ever heard of Dead can Dance? They are very atmospheric and middle eastern influenced, you should give them a try. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itwL5y0He-k

    :offtopic: You're talking about the Valhallan Imperial Guard Squad, those guys were kind of guerilla freedom fighters. Then your other faction would be the House Delaque Gang of Necromunda....Unfortunatly i am just knowledgeable about the lore of Warhammer 40k and not the figurines per say. The...

    It seems Edward that we can't hide you anything. I did got this coat in dreaming of looking like Gaunt from the Warhammer 40k novels. Silly me. Although, i'm still debating if i should go for the visor cap or not...As well, i could easily replace the shoulder boards by some straps of leather...

    it feels like it but maybe not the upper most quality like an Aero or Eastman let say.

    Give me your comments on this leather great coat.

    I have thought of that actually, to replace the buttons but i'll see what is the general opinion and then make my judgement call. As for the shoulder boards, it s definetly a no!

    Give me your comments on this leather great coat.

    There is no military shoulder pads on this one even if Spearhead does give them as a gift when you buy the coat. So the likelihood that somebody makes an association with the nazi pary is pretty slim. Even if they do, that's their opinion and i surely didn't bought it because of the association...

    Give me your comments on this leather great coat.

    Thou shalt asketh an' receive. The leather is actually thick and inside there is a satin lining which makes it really warm once you close this coat. I would say the coat is actually weighting in between 8 to 10 pounds easy and it is thick Horsehide Leather. It's really looking nice each time...
