Hi,
Went for a walk and ran errands yesterday in my new Buzz J.A. Dubow W535-AC-27798. Going for a beer later in it so its ok to post the past....
It repros a redeye and I was amazed at how close it gets to my original 27798 skin. The Buzz Crown is also something I wanted to try for a long time. Its not the usual purple burgundy knits, but they did come in brown and the liner is also a bit different but correct for the contract according to GW. The epaulette X is not correct but they may have been a couple of exceptions, I am still looking for a squarer X Dubow. My original is elongated. The pockets, like my other Dubow from Platon are also bigger than my original. I am very happy with this Buzz, especially the redeye, an effect I was after for a while.
Here it is:

Pissing down today again so the Barnstormer which laughs off rain. Honestly Horween's CXL FQHH must be the most water resistant leather known to man. I've worn it in full downpours and the water just beads, it never even gets close to getting waterlogged. Must be all the waxes they stuff in the thing.
Sturm Mil-Tec roughouts for a change from the service shoes.

Jan, your A-1 Fivestar is Awesome.
You probably mentioned it somewhere, but is it the A-1 in capeskin ? Have you had it long ? bought it new ? the leather seems to have a nice patina.

That’s the one exactly. I actually bought it new a year or two ago. I asked Shawn to make some adjustments to the pockets and collar in order to make it more accurate to the Gordon & Ferguson A-1. When it arrived, however, I didn’t really wear it at all, partly because of the very matte light russet color out of the box, and partly because it was a bit short in the sleeves (although I’m becoming fond of the shorter sleeve length).
I had honestly written my Five Star A-1 off as a failed project when it happened to come up in conversation with Burt, and he suggested this process he has for tinting leather that’s had good results on some of his own jackets. I figured that I wasn’t getting any use out of the jacket as it was, so the situation could only get better. I mailed it off to him, and these are the results. Now I’m just waiting on a patch for it from Ties:

It's almost a week now that I'm down with COVID so I have to rely on flash-back photos.
The Dutch Fedora Lounge group trying eachother's jackets, this time hosted by @Marc mndt , back from three weeks ago. Nice time with friends, a ton of leather jackets, both vintage and repro.
