    Eastman B15 and B10 no option on arm Decal

    I think it was Allen that I spoke to... and he was adamant that they would not and did not produce the jackets without the decal.. and it was their policy.. without a reason. I think that what got to me the most was whoever it was I did speak to's attitude of 'that's just the way it is' ...

    Eastman B15 and B10 no option on arm Decal

    Yes.. somebody here must know... does anyone from Eastwood contribute to this site? I do hope the authenticity issue is what has moulded the policy... The B15 and the B10 available at Eastwood are the Roughware issue.. but I am not an expert on when this was produced or if they all had...

    Eastman B15 and B10 no option on arm Decal

    Good thought... but from my first conversation regarding a possible order the representative stated they would make a jacket up to my required measurements and it would take up to two weeks,,They gave me the impression it would be custom made without actually saying such.. For the price and...

    Eastman B15 and B10 no option on arm Decal

    Hi .. I just wondered if anyone knows why Eastman has a policy on not supplying their Roughware B15 and B10 jackets without the US airforce jackets? It cant be a case of authenticity as apparently as many originals were produced without the decal.. Its just that I really love the style and...

    Brown FQHH Highwayman for Sale

    Thanks Peacoat... well, as you all already probably know it just missed the reserve... Maybe its a little too close to Christmas now for the discerning gentleman to splash out on an expensive leather jacket .. and the arm repair probably put a few potential bidders off....Anyway I'm pretty glad...

    Brown FQHH Highwayman for Sale

    I Just used a a tailor's tape measure on my chest ... expanded dead on 46" and relaxed dead on 44" Aero wanted to take the relaxed measurement when helping me size up this jacket .. it was custom made for me. Not off the shelf as you would expect from Aero... Just to be clear.. This jacket...
