B10 jacket and NAF 11680 jacket, Gizemo’s

[Shanghai-Mayne]

Hi, received mine, back length is 58cm , bit shorter than 24 inch, size is 38.

Could be. Though at the time the pilots (as well as the average person) were quite shorter than today and most of the flight jackets I know had a back length of 24-24,5 inch. Again I might be wrong.

A quick review, I ordered a Size 38, it’s back length is 58cm ( 23.5 inch), waist band (above the knit) width 55cm(22 inch) only one inch less compared to the number on that spec sheet, so far I am satisfied with the result.

The jacket looks incredibly nice, I’m very tempted to buy one myself. The back length is 58 cm measured from the bottom of the collar to the end of the waistband or is the waistband and excluded?

Hello Shanghai,

You must be very happy with your B-10, it looks nice. Should blow the competition away, the Chinese one,

Could you share a picture of the zipper box?

Thank you,

Daniel , the pattern is good, if the weather allow me to do so, I would like to continuously wear it for three month, see if the material is top quality or not.
Zipper , just like the official pic, Conmar type box, Talon type slider, made by Japanese company Asahi (Walders) ,I will take pic tomorrow.

Good idea, I was also wondering how it will age, especially the collar that seems really dense and plush. The cloth should lose its stiffness and drape like originals.

Thanks, the official pics (taobao) are really bad IMO, and zero interesting if meant to attract customers like us, nitpickers...
I don't know why but they are compressed like when internet was limited in bandwidth...many moons ago...lol

Thnk you,

Thank you again, so only the back length differs much from the size chart… Weirdly enough.
The jacket overall looks very well made

Also, which one of the many versions on TaoBao is the 100% cotton one @Shanghai-Mayne ? I can’t really understand with my auto translator!
