Thirded(?) on customer service. When I bought from them some years ago and prices were lower, I was still parting with a fair sum of money, to a company I knew of, and which had been recommended. I had some questions, got some prompt answers and help, paid the money and got what I wanted...

I considered one from ELC, but eventually plumped for the BR version with red knits. My problem with any jackets, or indeed anything that's not underclothing, is that I wear it or them whatever I'm doing, without regard to dirt, wear etc. Not a problem with most leather, but a big worry with...

I have an Eastman B-3 and a D-1, and both suit me just fine. I bought them well-before their prices rose to current levels, and at the time, they seemed expensive, but not excessively so.

I don't generally go for anything that even faintly reminds me of my schooldays and the sports which I detested, but was compelled to engage in, and therefore haven't worn anything like trainers or gym shoes, ever since. However, I do very much like the look of those, particularly that...

There is a thread on here about the Amelia Earhart leather jacket. I've no idea whether it's still "on the go", but it looked to me to be one of the most flattering ladies' jackets available. https://www.vintageleatherjackets.org/threads/amelia-earhart-flight-jacket-reproduction-the-aviatrix.19470/

That's a very good jacket. It's also a useful indicator for me, as I'm planning on getting a Fivestar D-1 in the New Year, to replace my Eastman version.

Same problem as others. A couple of things I'd like, but no stock in my size.

Thanks. Missed that.

Not exactly on the B3 topic (which looks an excellent jacket in your latest photos today), but I'm impressed with the colour of the shearling. I am in the market for another D-1 jacket, and considered Five Star, but wouldn't have one with the white sheepskin. Will you be offering the D-1 in the...

That's a good fit, even if it does make me somewhat envious. As an aside, I'm also rather taken by your radiator and pipework. I hate it when pipes are embedded in floors and walls, so inaccessible if problems arise.

Anything could happen, but, history suggests that for those of us who are UK residents, nothing will become cheaper or less expensive. UK governments, of any stripe, are masters at making money out of us in a thousand devious, fiendish ways. There could be scope for reducing VAT, but I don't see...

Tapatalk error message on iOs.

The Tapatalk version on iOS isn't working as at Friday 10th May. It doesn't allow me access and returns error messages on both my old G4 iPad and current iPhone.

Superb set of photographs. I seem to remember it was known as "The Flying Porcupine" on account of the firepower, which caught a lot of attackers unawares.
