How much is it on Taobao?

Blue N-1

Taobao = 275$
Shop = 450$

Sounds like I need to find a way to deal with taobao.

 

[Dany McDonald]

Alipay account linked with your Taobao.

There's a SuperBuy (or other 3rd party shopping) trick: https://www.superbuy.com/en/page/bu...wu.11804641-tw.shop-content.15.7e7e16bbZD67d1

All available on their TB

Their B-10 description is more suited to the B-15..

 

[mulceber]

Yeah, they clearly got their copy switched.

Clearly the Giz , BR and TRMC B-10 are the best and most accurate B-10 ( after the GW ) ones.
Real Alpaga and no plastic /cotton blend or worse…

I’d put Eastman in that list. Their proclivity for branded hardware is annoying, but the alpaca pile they use is perfect, and while I don’t like their collar profile, it IS accurate to the RW B-10:

I like the small collar. That’s the one thing I don’t like about my 5 star. Collar looks a bit big to me.

With all due respect ELC never had Alpaga nor a realistic collar… Was discussed here 101 times and more… dream dream dream..

With all do respect I disagree. The alpaca on my Eastman B-10 is identical to my original Arnoff and Rough Wear B-15's.
The Giz photos are all so dark it's difficult to judge if the shell, alpaca and knits are close to being correct.
BR alpaca is hit or miss from my experience.
The current RMC B-10 is a joke compared to the older B-10's they used to make.

Dream dream dream indeed.

Most of your wordings make sense…and were discussed here by many already.. so I will not challenge nor develop any further..
But :
Two things
1) the ELC B-10 collar and mouton is a pure joke even compared to its own add on its own page showing references
2) the Alpaca definition is very precise but all ELC liners seem to ignore those.. ( already discussed in many posts)…
Nevertheless the ELC B-10 RW is a good looking heandsome jacket… its just not ww2 like..
Sorry
