    Has any one come across the brand 'Matchless' jackets?

    I was browsing the net for jackets and this 'Matchless' brand came up. Apparently the brand has 'British' roots and are making some movie jackets? Just wonder if anyone has owned any of their jackets. I suspect some Italian companies bought the brand up and pretend to be British..... sounds...

    Price differences between different hides

    I need your collective minds here. I was in a discussion with some fashion junkies who think that lambskin is king. I want to find out roughly how much different good quality hides cost, as a raw material. I seriously need to provide some convincing figures to get back into the discussion. Any...

    Simply about leathers

    I found this article about the current scene of the leather industry. I cannot say how accurate some of the figures and analysis are in the article, NOR I am a tree hugger or vegetarian of some sort. BUT!

    Now, my Aero 40-3785-P with 506th PIR patches.....

    As a follow up of my previous thread about regretting placing patches on my new Aero 40-3785-P A-2. Here are some of the pics. I think the jacket fits pretty well, as I am a slim built person. As I did some researches on the patches, apparently for retired war veterans, in honour of thier old...

    Regretting to put patches on my new Aero A-2......

    I have ordered a Aero A-2 jacket with the 506th PIR and the airborne patches. I got the jacket a few weeks ago and then sent it back for sewing the backordered patches on. The painted 506th PIR looks pretty good and accurate, but the screaming eagle patch is very very disappointing. First, they...

    About the place my Aero A-2 order. Smooth or Jerky Russet?

    I am about the place my order for an Aero A-2, very likely to be the 1940 model. I just can't decide on whether I want Jerky Russet or a Smooth Russet. I've looked at some pics from the Aero USA website and found that the jerky ones are more reddish, which I like, while the smooth russet ones...
