HPA Eastman B-3

[ScottoLaw]

Hi Everyone,

Tonight I had the distinct pleasure to meet up personally with Charles from HPA. I live close to HPA and Charles was kind enough to take the time this evening to bring a RW B-3 for me to try on. I had been admiring the ELC B-3 for a long time and finally seeing one in person was not a dissapointment to say the least. Charles and I talked for some time about jackets and when he unwrapped the B-3 I was blown away. The hand finish on the sheepskin is amazing. It has a nice reddish-brown appearance and slight sheen to it. The wool has a real nice light brown or light tan color and just really looks great. There's something reassuring about buying from a company whose owner cares enough about his customers to not only take their telephone calls personally, but to also hand deliver a product.

Hope you enjoy the pics.

Regards,
Scott

Thanks again everyone! I really appreciate the replies and it's nice being a member here.

Charles was also kind enough to show me his RW27752 in the Warhorse finish. That too looked great. His collar had broken in nicely and the OD thread was a subtle contrast to the seal brown color (I think in literature that last sentence is called foreshadowing lol).

I know you guys saw John's wonderful pic of his former RW B-3 but i'd still like to post up some more as it breaks in if you guys don't mind?

No two are the same. More photos of yours as it wears would be great

Thanks again for all of the kind comments fellows. I keep learning so much from you guys about this stuff, and I look forward to my continued participation here on VLJ. Better late than never . I will post up more pics at some point to illustrate how it wears.

Regards,
Scott
