Thanks Art. There is a Redwing store just a few blocks from my house. I've actually been eyeballing that very same boot. Kind of like catchy tunes, can't get them out of your head.

Very busy with errands today, but thought I would post a quick pic of my 'new' Buzz L.S.L. Garment Co. B-10 just received from Buyee, Japan. I am VERY pleased that the jacket is in such great condition, and purchased for not much more than a new Bronson or Bob Dong B-10:

EDIT: I think that Buzz did a nice job with their repro collar shape, as this original L.S.L. Garment Co. B-10 shows. The shell color is very close when seen indoors as well:

Thanks! I was pleasantly surprised it was in even better condition than seen from the pics. :) The jacket selection on both the shopping and auction sides of Buyee (Rakuten, assorted other places, and Yahoo Auction Japan) definitely thins out when searching for sizes 42 and up (I also search the XXL's ), but they're there... ;)

I actually found another Buzz L.S.L. Garments B-10 in a 44 the other day there at auction. This one IS in like-new condition, with crisp-looking knits, no wear at all on the shoulder roundel transfer, and unlike the one I just received, has a nicer (IMO) 'fur' type of mouton for the collar in the natural color. :cool: I was stunned there were NO other competition. I was the only bidder, and picked it up for not much more than the first one. :eek: :D I'll probably end up selling the one I have now after I confirm condition of the one coming, so anyone interested in the 44 shown above, keep an eye (or two) open in the classies soon.. ;)

EDIT: Here's a pic of the other one I won at auction:

I don't know about you, but if it has to do with great quality Japanese jackets at some of the best prices I've seen, I'll take a barrel full of monkeys, and a ton of peanuts to feed them.... ;) :p

Thanks Burt. I was lucky to find it. What sold me on it was the heavy graining. I figured it must be thinner an I was right. Even the wool interior is lighter weight material. Must have been a special order.

Cool jacket!
Did you add the AAF decal yourself? If yes, is it MASH and if so, what version - with glue or only with water?

J this is the one I got sent as a gift from Australia I’ve mentioned previously, the decal was done at the source by Eastman themselves Dimi and I’m the 3rd and final owner of this A2 the guy I got it from owned it for close to a decade using it daily on his motorbike so it has plenty of little wear points in just the right places that can only really be seen with the human eye, it’s got great character imo but the best part was it maintained it’s heavy aroma of warhorse,a real nice smelling leather jacket that’s been made with a great hide. Before it’s biker journey it was a sizing issue that the seller wasn’t happy with so sold it unworn with tags to the Australia gent
