Thanks! Yes we are making these now. It should be up on the site today. We are speeding through our queue now so it would not be too long of a wait. It shouldn't be more than 10 weeks or so. I can give more specifics at the time the order is placed.Wow, very nice! Are you producing these now? If so, how long will a custom sizing take?

Which tannery does the capeskin for you? It looks historically accurate.
I can tell you that our Capeskin is from South Africa but I cannot release the name of the tanner.
Very 'Secret Squirrel'... I like it..
Yes I have a few options. Being USA based is a necessity. Right now I am working with an experienced artist who is making up a sample for me. The hide has been tested for colorfastness and it will be just fine to paint on. Now I am sending larger pieces of Capeskin to make up a sample. I will pot photos when it's done.Any luck on finding someone to paint the high hat on the jacket ,and doing a run like ELC does .

Hi Jay, I am very interested in the High Hat jacket. I flew in the Tophatters squadron from 1983 to 1986 in the F-14. I recently purchased an ELC RW 27752 A-2 complete with a cloth Tophatters patch. ELC sells the cloth patch under the USN Squadron VB-41 which was their designation in 1943. I cannot find any sizing information on your website. My ELC A-2 is a size 42 and fits great. What size would you recommend? I like my jackets to have a slim fit. I am 6‘ 165 lbs 32” waist. Thanks
Check out Tophatter patch on ELC’s website.Just ordered one of these from Jay.
Now I need to find a really good
‘“Top Hatters” early period repro Patch . I’m assuming it was a cloth patch back in those days but I’m not sure. I need to know the correct color and background color for the 1920 - 1925 time period. Can anyone educate me on this please.
