Thanks for that info … if and when they do open up their sales to the western markets they are going to turn a lot of heads and shake some things up with the more established companies .
No offence, we should all go to one-way excursion trip to China and Mayne should be our tourist guide ;). With Eastman's/Japan's prices going through the roof i would be the first one to buy the ticket...nice B-line stuff jackets to buy in China for 450-600 bucks.

Kind of Bronson quality ? I mean the "cost-effective version" , the one I onw , the only one in stock !!! Very good quality for the rice . LOve br ! ;) real Simons seams to be very attractive too , they not in the same products I think . I visited their pages , they should work on the design of their web site , I have a lot of difficulty to understand how it works !

I didn’t own that N1. But their piles is better , it’s alpaca/wool blended.
I own their A2, L2, and B15, for their cost-effective, i think are better than Bronson’s counterparts. (Bronson don’t have A2)
They are selling product on TB, I don’t know if they have a separate website.

I've given up on the opportunity to get one A2 18775 in second hand. I received the jacket today and I must say that I am impressed by the general appearance even if i'm not sufficiently qualified to validate the conformity of the reproduction with the original. I will try to do a review the next few days.

I am basically a fan of the original navy leather jackets, but you, my friends, by dint of waving these beautiful A2s in front of me, have aroused my curiosity. After purchasing a homemade Eastman jacket, unfortunately too small, I had the opportunity to buy this Real Simons which @Shanghai-Mayne spoke highly of.
When it arrived this week, the first time I discovered it, it gave me the same feeling of quality as the Eastman. I will not talk about the fidelity of the reproduction which I cannot evaluate, but only about my general impression.
The leather is supple but not yet broken by its original owner. It has a deep brown that is non-uniform and borrows red depending on the light. Its curves are quite pleasant and the seams are nice and tight, seeming very well done. The brick red knitwear is 100% wool and pretty
The patern is tight at the shoulders to gradually relax from the chest to the stomach before tightening at the waist. I find it pleasant to wear.

Beautiful jacket … very impressed with the overall construction .
Would you mind posting the standard measurements on this size 44?
Also .. how can we in the U.S. acquire one of these beauties and what’s the cost of one?
