love that pointed collar!One of my two Platon's Dubow after 1.5 years of wear, becoming looks better every day.
The photo was taken in bright sunshine, there may be a chance to take a photo on an overcast day to show wear and patina formation.
the jacket hasn't shrunk in this time

This Platon Dubow is aging beautifully, lot's of character already showing! They really are a superb reproduction of the 27798 contract, I know I love mine.

That's become a part of high-end repro "authenticity."

Really very good! Much better than the Eastman, 5 Star, and everyone else but you know who. It has some deal breakers for me in some of the details but the overall pattern and look is excellent!One of my two Platon's Dubow after 1.5 years of wear, becoming looks better every day.

This actually applies to anything vintage. I do a lot of vintage clothing and vinage uniform collecting. And most things prior to 1980s are clearly made for short sized, 42 and bellow people. Let's not even start about pre 1930s, people were thin as paper back then!!
On another note, still about Platon, there were rumors about him starting on navy flight jackets...any updates on that?
Guilty I'm afraid haha just over 5ft 7 40-42 chest 32 waist, it opens a lot up for me I guess
