Can people stop posting bloody pictures of 27752s? You buggers know I'm in the queue for one so what you're doing amounts to psychological torture.
Cut it out otherwise there'll be trouble!

Thanks, Burt. The jacket has had no work done on it other than wearing it. Lighting plays a role in the reddish tones you see, as the sun was setting when the picture was taken and the sunlight was taking on orange-reddish hues.

I had precisely you in mind when I posted the picture, Tim! ; ) Good things happen to those who wait, bro!. And let me assure you, you're not alone on that train ....

Is this the Arnoff? I own one too and it's a very nice repro, I would venture to say above their B-10 offerings... Just my observation.

Actually, it's their Rough Wear repro. I'm really pleased with it. I'm going to have a thread talking about it in detail somewhere down the line, but for now I'll say that there are a number of features where it's clear to me that BR put the same amount of care into the details of this product that we would expect from a high-end A-2 repro.

Nice, I am a fan of B-15 and looking forward to it!
My Buzz Arnoff rendition is very detailed and close to the original specs, from my point of view. It could have a better color match for the cloth and waist/knits but in all, a convincing edition.

Great 'effin' shot brother. Wear it in good health!
Edit... your painters had it right, there IS something about the light in your corner of the world.

I know it shouldn't come as a surprise, but I'm really impressed with Buzz Rickson. I have tended to assume that once you get into the more obscure jacket types, a lot of these bigger repro makers would let the details slide: "wrong hardware? Not quite the right color? Meh. You got the spec label right, didn't you?" This jacket proved me wrong.
I'll have to look up their Arnoff repro - I'd be interested to see the differences.

No whining about the queue. You made your choice!

I love your civilian collection of Aeros. I still have the ‘Veste de Rallyes’ on my list.

Maybe it's that "Survived a few missions" look?
