Does anyone have any experience with "WWII Impressions?" If so, what is their quality?

http://www.wwiiimpressions.com/

I would appreciate feedback, due to the fact that I am considering them when making a purchase of an authentic World War II leather jacket, shirt, trousers, or boots made to mil-specs.

I have ordered several several items from WWII Impressions and their attention to detail is astounding! I have mostly purchased Marine items from them, all of their Marine items are patterns taken off of originals loaned to them by the Marine Corps Museum in Quantico. I havent ordered any Army items from them but if their other items are the same in quality as their Marine items then they are the way to go.

Now like all businesses they do have their downsides and I find their downside is in how quickly or efficiently they answer any questions you may have. Alot of times it is employees answering the questions but if their answers dont satisfy you ask to speak to Juan (the owner) and ask him directly!

Top notch, all the way!

I had some issues on an item I waited almost 2 years for then was told I was to pay the "new" price as the materials went up in price.

He's a Great Guy ! Known him for about 20 yrs. Some of his gear is pricey but he's stands behind whay he's sell. Order with confidence .


I am just informing someone of what happened to me. I met Juan in 87 at a reenactment in California and had no problem with him. If I had someone order a product and we waited a while for it as we had problem with suppliers and there was a price increase from my supplier, I would not raise my price on an existing order that was made BEFORE the price increase.

I've got a pair of ATF's and WPG I like them both. I know that WPG's is a thicker leather. On some companies they won't dye the edges but after polishing them they are good and sealed and look good.
