Need a place to talk about your B-10? Here you are! Many great cloth-based jackets were used throughout history-and a few manufacturers offer repros today!
There are many, many cool motorcycle jackets out there-from vintage Buco, Trojan, Indian, etc., all the way to the current offerings from Aero, LW, etc.
Plus a whole world of utility jackets such as the denims.
Art and patches are such an important part of a jacket's heritage that it's only fitting to have a place to discuss them - here it is - all about jacket art and patches - original or reproduction, cloth or leather.
Vera, I did take note of your comments as you own McCoy jackets and aren’t quick to snub them off as overpriced without handling their jackets. This makes 4 people that actually own mccoys have said the quality is better than the others. In my eyes McCoy are the creme de la creme in repros.
Nathan - I am new to this forum and very interested in purchasing a Mil-J-7823 B/C size 42 in good condition. I am a Navy Veteran and looking to purchase. Is there a way for me to post my inquiry to this forum and/or any recommendations for how I can acquire a nice jacket. Thanks Gerry
