Ok so going back to knits. I spoke with Eastman and they will only replace with the same knits on the RW27752, has anyone UK based used someone else to replace theres before? I was thinking of getting some MASH knits in a mid brown.

Theres a guy here in London, Jules, who can replace knits correctly (he is a collector himself, and worked in wardrobe of BoB series)...
Best if you source the knits, either MASH or Headwind Mfg... Or get from Eastman.
If interested, pm me for his email address.

They say on their website that you can’t expect ‘museum quality’ work since they are in the jacket repair business. The original Irvins that they specialise in tend to be well used and patched from hard lives.

Yes, well, was far from true in my case... You get what you pay for.
Jules uses the same stitch holes, checks & details things along the way. Actually does museum quality work.
Yes had a reply from Jules today. A good price to do the waistband and cuffs all done by hand using the same stitching holes.

Thanks for the heads up on Byson, if I need anything doing I will probably swerve them!
It’s a shame as they seem to have alot of NOS stuff squirrelled away
Would it be rude to ask if there is a link to Jules and what sort of price for knits
