Bronson Fall/Winter 2020 plan

[Bremspropeller]

There you go - last year's B-10 (44) and MA-1 (XL) and this year's B-15A (44) on top of each other:

Really thinking hard about getting another B-10 in Olive (same colour as the B-15A).

 

[Brettafett]

One issue I had with the B-10 was the loose-ish waistband... Hope they rectify that.
A B-10 with the same colours as that 15, I'd be happy.

 

[B-Man2]

That’s a sweet composite of jackets .
congrats !
I’m patiently waiting for my Bronson B-15a thus the reason for all the questions and requests for photos. Thanks

 

[Brettafett]

Looking forward to everyones reviews....

 

[B-Man2]

I had one of their previous B-15a jackets that was just too small, so I sold it off. Based on what the rep told us a few months ago regarding Bronson making bigger size jackets, I ordered another B-15a. They really are good quality jackets for the money, and I’m hopeful that they worked out the sizing so that bigger guys can wear their B-15a’s . If not ... oh well ... someone will get a great deal!

Just spied the Mountain Jacket by BR on the HPA Facebook page.. US$565.. yowza. This is where Bronson can come to the fore. All the niche items BR do.. that BR would probably do down the line..

Please make bigger sizes. Very best, Bill K.

Got to say, fair shout to Bronson customer service.

Just need the right tool now

 

[Thomas Koehle]

Those buttons look similar to "Patent Knöpfe" which shuöld work even without a tool

I think I know the ones you mean, I have some here that do just snap together with a little tap from a hammer. These seem slightly different though and require the top of the point flattening in order to secure them. Found the tool on amazon, so I'll have a go next week.

 

[Brettafett]

Just arrived.

The fit looks spot on ... how do you like it and what are your thoughts about it?

 

[Brettafett]

I like it! Happy with the fit and the overall quality. Happy that the waistband is not 'loose', all the bits are of good quality.
Agree, the collar is not as nice as the B-10... More like faux fur, than mouton...
The lining has a heavy 'musky' smell also, so let see. Plan to inspect more over the weekend.
Watch this space.

No tool required other than a percussion wrench.

Setting tool?

 

[Monsoon]

Bronson has some nice jackets but I'm outside of their size range at a 48.

 

[B-Man2]

I feel your pain Monsoon, really do .
Your only option is to drop big bucks on an ELC , as even a Buzz only goes to 44-46.
Doesn’t seem right.
