Is the Bronson Website down?

Yes we all know you get what you pay for and that's all fine and dandy but the vendor / seller is the one who sends the item via the courier of their choice - and sometimes despite a buyer offering to pay for a better service.

Agree... so change the vendor!
However, for the courrier express shipping of an approx 2kg parcel from PRC to an intercontinental destination, we all know that this will cost approx.140 Euro... Agree and no doubt all buyers will riot!

Aha, yes you can do that ...but not if it's a unique item

Gurkha pants from Bronson just arrived. I kind of wish they were a bit more relaxed in the waist/seat of the pants area, but they fit without a struggle. I just hope they don't shrink. I think I'll be buying more at some point in the near-ish future - cracking good design and materials!

Get some of the WPG ones they're seriously good. And not the usual flimsy material you see on most repros so they last. They're also sized for western bodies. Cheap too, last time they were 30-something bucks.

Will do when Natalie gets home. My arms aren’t long enough to take selfies of my lower legs.

Ah, I’m sorry to hear that, Edward. Here’s hoping the postmaster gets on it soon.

@Smithy, are the WPG ones high-waisted as well?

Smithy, this has gotta be the second or third time you’ve pointed me toward exactly what I was looking for.

 

[mulceber]

just a quick shot.

 

[B-Man2]

The fit looks good..

 

[Edward]

Ah and just like that, wait a few hours and now it’s in Monroe Township, NJ!

 

[mulceber]

Hah! Love it. Hope it moves quickly from here on out.

Recently received OG-107 pants from Bronson (Non Stock). It's incredible, but the package still reached me. However, the quality was disappointing. I have the original OG-107 pants from the 1966 contract. Bronson's fabric is different, thinner, OG-107 color not 100% correct. The cut is also different from what they copied. Bronson's pants are wider at the hips and waist and their shape is not entirely accurate. Probably repro pants are not their forte - I gave it to my son. I remember that I wanted to buy chino from them - now this my desire was gone.

I beat a parcel home to Mildura and it had a week's headstart.

Have been waiting five weeks for a set of Tank Destroyer DIs from Czechoslovakia.

A pair of leggings took two weeks to clear US customs....

Crazy times to be buying....
