Comp to ELC's B-3 at £1349, or Bronson's B-6 on sale at $799, this is a bargain! As always, if...

    Looking for A2

    On a budget, cant go wrong with one of AVI Leather's Broncos. I did a review on here somewhere. Patterns and details copied off an original in their collection, lots of jacket for the price. A Goodwear it is not, but it ticks all the necessary boxes for an original maker horsehide (or goat) A-2...

    Anj-3

    AVI Leather makes a cracker ANJ-3. Its their own take on the ANJ-3, not based on any particular original. Most originals had the windflap on the outside, but here are some as above more like the M-422A
