Ordered this jacket from The History Bunker in Leeds. Ordered in a custom size. Yes, again made overseas, not UK.
WW1 Imperial German Fighter Pilots leather jacket - black
The jacket arrived and the workmanship is amazing. I was a bit worried that some portions were fake leather but they all past the "fake/real leather test with water. Maybe fake passes the tests these days. Smells like leather! Great WW1 vibe, looks great on. Need to take wearing pics. Not terribly grainy but I noticed it creases well. I am not much of a black leather jacket person but wanted one black jacket. This one is super heavy BTW. Lots of great details, inner pocket, etc. For the price - amazing. I will absolutely order a Hartmann jacket from them. They nailed the fit. Those pics to follow. Buttons inside like double breasted jacket. The only drawback is I will never this jacket enough to truly break it in.
