I'm a little bit unhappy with my current B-10 made by Bronson, on one hand because I ordered a size too large I think, and on the other hand its color is inaccurate, too vivid green instead of the typical USAAF olive.
So I'm weighing my options - not in a hurry, next time I'll see winter will be in a year.
Eastman - undoubtedly the best, but absolutely out of my budget. No way.
Buzz Rickson Roughwear - The color looks nice, but I'm not a fan on the darker green knits. They should be matching, shouldn't they? What is the impression of Buzz owners? Is the quality really that much better than a Bronson? What's the color like? The price is steep, but it's something I'd be willing to pay if it's really worth it.
Bronson - I'm happy with the quality, love the matching knits, but their olive color is a bit of a miss IMO. It also costs exactly how much I'd be happy to pay for a B-10. Their previous run had the perfect color, but I sold that jacket because I thought I needed a bigger one
Should I look at a Buzz, or wait for the next run of Bronson (they're out of stock already) and hope they nail the color better? Any feedback from Buzz owners on quality and sizing? Is it real Alpaca?
Thanks!
