Eastmans Patton B-3

[6148th T.C.Squadron]

I knew someone would do this.

Dyno-Mite!!!!

Very impressive

 

[John Lever]

Eastman are making a small run of jackets soon to be available from stock only.

 

[Roughwear]

A plain version of the Werber B3 would be great and more wearable than a repro of Patton's patched jacket IMO.

 

[John Lever]

Totally agree Andrew. I just can't wear anything with logos patches or badges, and think this is typical of most UK buyers.

 

[a2jacketpatches]

Gary is in no danger of getting stuck with pre-patched jackets, they're global.

 

[Roughwear]

Of course they are!

 

[John Lever]

I don't think the domestic market is very big for Eastman, and would assume this jacket will have a top end price.

 

[Roughwear]

I agree John. I think they will sell well in Japan and the USA.

 

[a2jacketpatches]

Think I know what you're saying, does he not offer this contract without the Patton stuff?

 

[a2jacketpatches]

Didn't mean to question you Andrew, all I meant is that Gary told me the patched jackets are selling well globally. And I remember something about him not offering the contract used for the 75th FS without the patches.

 

[John Lever]

I have asked Gary if he might lend me one to review and share.

 

[Roughwear]

I presume you might be getting a patched one John? I hope to see the jacket in the flesh at Legends later in the month.

 

[John Lever]

Not sure yet as he said he would consider it.
