Looking for a B-15 jacket if anyone has one...I'm after the variant that has the two leather triangle tabs attached to the chest.

Ideally I'm looking for one that is slightly longer, although I will consider regular length depending on measurements.

Drop me a message if you have anything of interest! I'm located in the UK for reference. Thanks!

Bump, if anyone has an Eastman in a size 46 regular, long or extra long, let me know!

If you are anywhere near London, the Eastman pop up is on right now. I think I saw a rail of b-15s today.

Yeah, I'm up in Manchester but I just can't find the time to take a day out and travel down unfortunately - plus, I can't really afford to splash out the full amount on a brand new one right now. Hopefully a lounger will have one in the right size and spec at some point!

Bump, still looking. Definitely would need a size 46.

Don't mind which variant of the jacket this is, B-15 or B-15A is fine by me.

Hit me with a PM if you have anything of interest!

Thanks! I already have owned and sold on a Pike Brothers B15, I wasn't too keen on the way it fit me. Definitely want to try an Eastman this time

http://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/eastman-b-15-size-44.92071/...maybe it fits, since quite roomy made..
On the other hand Eastman and or Buzz Rickson´s are a different league price-wise...

There’s a 44 ELC B-15 for sale on VLJF (£350 plus shipping I think).

I have a feeling that's @dubpynchon's jacket (sadly too small for me, I'd definitely need a 46), but do you have a link? I can never seem to find the classifieds on VLJF...feel like I'm missing something here!

No worries, I've got it now - didn't realise you had to be registered on there to see the buy and sell forum.
