Re: how good are bill kelso campared to GW Eastman real mcco

..... but GW have not put anything up in seven months? I know that the man is flat out, and that he hardly needs to advertise. ....

If memory serves me right, last I heard ( a few months ago) GW's production average is 3 jackets per week and has been that for quite some time.

PM sent

Was comparing the amount of flak Platon was enduring tor a lack of visible customers (here and on the Fedora Lounge) while there appeared to be a distinct break in anyone here announcing their latest GW acquisition. I am certain the production line is flat out at GW. If anyone wanted to see the latest offerings from BK, they are put up on the Facebook page in great detail. Whereas there are limited updates on the GW site or the FB page... I know the jackets are getting made, but we are not seeing them.

There are some very fine images of the BK A-1 jacket in evolution on the BK Facebook page. Just took a good look myself - very impressed.

I was told the Perry is not ready as it is waiting hardware.

He has many times ago.
His jacket is also the 1st W&G Bill Kelso has made (apart from the test jacket) and is of exceptional value considering the vintage GW mouton used on it and also triple marked Talon

I love the drive down from Ft Lauderdale. We usually fly into there and drive down, Alabama Jacks is a must stop. Usually stay on Key Largo or one of the other keys for a night.
