Brett, man… please do not sell this original. Side by side with the GW, they both just look glorious!!!
Avi D-1 is lovely, cracking fit. I’ve been considering one of these as it’s a great cut and quality seems solid all round.

As usual for NYE I'm over to Deal for the supper with friends and midnight firework display on the beach, a free half hour show paid for the local pubs, as good as the London ones I reckon and all free without the huge crowds London attracts. I usually wear the old Harrod's teddy bear coat, as warm as a B3 but full length so perfect for a cold blooded oldie like me. If it's raining I'll wear the half leather chauffeur's one.

Brett, you're reaching perfection with these two A-2, they're not only stunning, but they also fit you perfectly. Congratulations !
The D-1 is nice... it still needs to be broken in.
Have you developed a taste for sheepskin jackets ? What's next ?

Having seen Saint-Ex's A-2 in person, I can say it's stunning ! I was very impressed by the quality of this jacket. The leather is superb, with a beautiful patina, soft texture, and great color. Truly top-notch.

God that looks good. Was it a pain ordering? Did you order your normal size? Best repro I've seen for a while!

Definitely more of a pain than Bronson. The biggest headache was paying, since the app I used, Superbuy, doesn't take paypal, and a lot of American credit cards (well, mine at least) will preemptively reject a charge coming from China. So I had to use an international payment app called Wise. Apart from that, it was smooth. My understanding though is that Guillaume has found another similar courier, called parcelup that takes paypal. That's probably how I'll buy in the future.

I love to see an A-2 wrapped up like this, looking toasty and cool as ice, Saint-ex!
I THINK that's a Speedy I spy between your jacket and glove? Very nice touch indeed.

Looks like a really solid twill they used on this one. This looks just as good up close like this as in their display images!

I really hope ,by the time they will upgrade the way to order and get a more appropriate and easy way to purchase their products , like for The real Simmons , if Gizemo gives headaches , RS is needs the cutsomer to get a brainwash , Taobao is nonsens for worldwide customers . Parcelup is cool , but I prefer stay with Bronson even Gizemo is better in quality . The Br Mfg customer service is 200% efficient with good communication , they offer 10% if you write a review . I believe that , unfortunately that the way to get points and redeem is no longer available ... It's a shame
