While looking for something else, I came upon this French website https://www.paratrooper.fr , which seems to have a number of interesting things.
This B10 caught my attention:- https://www.paratrooper.fr/en/reproduction/2822-jacket-flight-b-10-usaaf.html. It looks to be of reasonable quality, and the third paragraph of the description, if accurate, seems to confirm it. Combined with a good range of sizes (although only 46 and 48 seem to be in stock now), and a competitive price, it appears a decent article.
As usual, I can't make out the label, but it looks to me a lot like a Chinese-made one (of which I have a Bronson). If it is, and it's in the EU, then for those of us in the UK (pro tem, perhaps) it looks to be a good buy, at the price and without the tax and import hassle of non-EU items.
Any comments/experience/advice welcome.
Thanks.
