Thought you guys might enjoy this: http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=85513&mode=linear LOTS of photos of original shoes and boots of all types.

Crockett and Jones, maybe?

One more GW doniger ... took delivery of it just before christmas ... I love this jacket ...

I wear an A-2 (goodwear), khakis and the BR officers dress shoes to work very frequently ... I'll soon be buying the BR khakis ... The A-2 looks awesome when worn on top of a dress shirt with a button down collar ..

JJ, did you sell the lewis leathers jacket too? :eek: :eek:

Call or email Amamnda and talk to her. Aero is a very good comopany and they'll take care of you ...

Took delivery of the jacket today ... the leather is exquisite. The jacket is in absolutely fantastic shape, all seams are intact and the liner is still very solid with no rips or tears. It is a little dirty near the collar but not too much. The best part is, it fits me as if it were tailored...

Rufus, does your jacket still bleed color?

Here my recent ebay purchase halfbelt ... waiting for it to arrive:

Turtleneck ?

Thanks for all your comments, gents ... James, the jacket looks more close to the halfbelts that aero makes, don't you think? Goodwear's civilian monarch is an amazing jacket too ... The tagged size of this jacket is 40 with the following measurements: Pit/pit=21" Sleeves=26"...

Jacket is SOLD.

Folks, I got this jacket recently only 2-3 weeks back but sadly have to let it go ... The jacket is in very nice condition and has great graining and patina already. It is made of italian horsehide and BR has gotten all details right. The color is beautiful ... The knits are tight but there...

I found a very nice, original 1940s halfbelt made by Bogen and Tanenbaum (same maker who had a navy contract during WW2) on ebay ... have already paid for it and waiting for it to arrive. I love the leather, very nice for a 60-year-old jacket. I'd love to get your opinion on this jacket ...
