My M422A again, unfortunately my new incoming A2 is way too big :(

Great weekend everyone

My complaint about a lot of Bronson's stuff as well. Their sweaters look so nice - I just wish they were 100% wool. :confused:
Agree 1000%. Their C-2 is nice for the money, but that nylon blend just makes it not so pleasant on bare skin. At least Avi's blended knits are pretty soft and easy to wear. They just pill and show wear more easily than 100% wool.

And what's frustrating is they're only something like 10-20% synthetic. They could just make them entirely of wool and raise the price 10-20% to cover the difference, and they'd be a phenomenal value.

Yep it’s an Avi, 100% right
I really like this jacket, think I’ll also wanna go for their A2 Bronco in hh russet.

I hope I'm not overstepping, but I think that both their seal goatskin and horsehide is notably nicer in appearance than their russet horsehide. I owned a russet HH Avi Bronco for a few days and was really underwhelmed with the hide color and finish and the knit color. I can dig up some photos for you if needed.

I’ll love to see some pictures if you still have them, I saw some different pictures on the web, some colors tend more ‘orange ish ‘ than russet….
