I dig the tan color of the jacket, and the fact that it’s made in Los Angeles, my hometown.
Did you get that SMW jacket in the end? Care to put some picture I’m also considering getting a tanker jacket soon and I’m also at the cross road of choices.I dig the tan color of the jacket, and the fact that it’s made in Los Angeles, my hometown.
ATF sells both (whenever their suppliers catch up) wool-lined and fleece-lined -- the fleece being a considerable discount, and it honestly looks identical to the wool.The problem with ATF is the lining being pile instead of wool. That’s the big down for me!
Well, the color of the SMW's shell isn't exactly accurate, so there's gonna be give & take....but I'm looking for the most period accurate so it'll have to be wool.
Maybe they did. I know Fury's production got stuff from all over the world. A friend of mine out of CA (who was also producer on the "Mail Call" series for History Channel a while back made all the ammo crates and a lot of the ammo-related stuff other than small arms.What got me is that SM Wholesale and WWII Impressions both claim to have supplied the jackets for “Fury”
Both SM and WWipm claim they did the B. Pitt Jacket. WWimp even has a little spiel about the prop team of Fury explicitly mentioning wwimp's jacket as the best of 'em all while SM sells an "official B.P jacket for a hefty amount.Maybe they did.

But as for SM and WW2IMP, SM really likes working on movie projects but it's possible that they needed more stuff than SM could make on time.
But the thing is there are several other companies who claim they made tanker stuff for that movie.
Yes! Thank you for the heads up about the ATF wool. I've contacted them and indeed they'll receive some in near future so I'll make sure to grab one of theirs!!ATF has mentioned they should be restocking their wool-lined tanker soon, maybe get on their email news list for updates. I think you'd be happy with their product.
