"As a result, no matter how well made, their jackets will appear clearly different than originals (simple side-by-side comparison with originals is enough to show that), so a more suitable description for them would be “vintage inspired” and not exact reproductions of the originals like ours are."

It still is and is based on subjective opinion Flynny even though they've extrapolated it out with a lot of self-aggrandisement. I used to work on the dark side back in the day in advertising, and subjective opinion is fair play in marketing a product and a company. It's why BMW use the tagline above and Carlsberg used the "probably the best beer in the world" tagline, and all the rest of the hyperbole that gets thrown around in print, TVCs, online, outdoor by marketeers to sell stuff.

Agreed whole-heartedly. Very good repros. Not perfect (whose is?), but definitely top tier.

Guilty... Of making a damn good jacket - despite the marketing blurb

To a man (or woman) we are all after the best jacket for the price...

'How much accuracy does your budget allow?' That's the question....

And how many times does your budget allow for that accuracy.

A-2s are once or twice a year.
BR cloth and nylon is whenever something unique pops up. For me anyway.

IMHO, even if no more in the Repro waves: GW for leather (nylon´s and cotton´s if he makes one...)
RMcC´s-Japan for military Nylon´s and Cotton´s....my experiences in the last few years.
