You interested in making an extra few bucks lol?

Where did you replace the lining?

Today, it’s a 1966 Times Marlin on a period perlon striped grosgrain-ish strap.

So while not the stuff of legendary W&G, Lands’ End in order to keep the trademark alive generally markets a product every couple of years with the branding. This is the current bomber jacket offering - a sort of bastardized A-2 crossed with G-8 crossed with modern sensibilities. But my wife...

Love all of it. I have a 1998-1999 safari jacket that I’ll post someday that is making me crazy in that I cannot adjust the belt to fit snugly enough. The belt had these buttoned across the loop sections to hold it in place and there’s simply too much material to get the buttonhole to align...

I’m a watch fiend. I’ll start with my TritonA WW2 German Army issued watch.

Well, I’ll have to keep this going I guess. I would think the dapper folks of this forum would have safari jackets, bush shirts, fur felt zebra striped hats, map cases and messengers, and A-2 jackets galore from W&G. Here’s my A-2 recently purchased from Poshmark (this is from the listing)...

All logic dictates that Hitler killed himself in the bunker. If he got away, can someone explain to me why Goebbels and his wife poisoned their whole family and killed themselves in the Fuhrerbunker if their hero were running away to start the Fourth Reich?

Willis & Geiger was such a monumentally important clothing line for adventure wear and adventure seekers. In honor of W&G, I’ve started an appreciation thread to post anything from your safari jackets to bush shirts to A-2 jackets and other items. I will kick things off with my Officer’s...

FYI There’s a new Willis & Geiger Appreciation Society Group on FB, and I will start a thread here.

Resurrecting this old thread to share my steal of a Poshmark purchase for $70 a few months ago. This W&G jacket had no wear whatsoever visible on it, including no damage or moth holes to the cuffs and waistband. These photos are from the listing and you’ll see two small paint specks - one on...

Can you discuss the sizing on your Brooklyn Dodgers 1945 hat in that I find that newera can be all over the place. In some hats a 7 1/4 swims on me and with others it’s just right so I’m trying to determine any trend with this hat and whether it shrunk when worn due to wool composition. Thanks.
