I'm relapsing into the internet again today- just browsed The Forum- doesn't seem too interesting today. Same ol'...
Thought I'd share a picture of my GW Bronco pocket- it's details like this that make me unable to buy any other typw of repro. The sewing is perfect for a Bronco with thick thread, the pocket flap snap backing is round but casually off a bit- exactly like a Bronco original I owned. The shape of the flap is so subtle, so right on to the original... Wonkiness is there- but purposeful, not accidental and again- like original industrial sewing. The hardest thing in making these jackets IMO is getting that right- good sewing done very quickly.
Hate to say it but no one else comes close!
Check out the zipper tab- notice the correct angled reinforcement:
I can't post any pictires of the jacket worn yet because no one's here to snap the photo but I will if I can. The fit is perfect and proportioned true to originals.
