Jaw, meet floor.

Whilst its a lovely jacket, not sure about that humongous big collar!

I’ve always thought the same.

 

[John Lever]

Yup, I agree. That being said, I think Full Gear has another B-1 that somehow still has the pocket, so that's pretty special, but John's is in astonishing condition.

Note the pocket design, not just a simple square but gusseted.

 

[CBI]

not sure but I think John does not list as sold until the buyer receives it and there are no issues. he also probably doesn't have time to make changes to his site very often

 

[STEVE S.]

Steve,S can you make a B1 for me ? I am the person you made the post war German A2 for .

yes, can make one. Only holdup/delay right now is sourcing the sheepskin for a B-1 liner. Would have to make some inquiries about where I could get some.

John’s B-1 is perfect!
Also the seam in the back.

Why hasn’t Jorge purchased it and done a review?

 

[mulceber]

Jorge certainly seems like a great candidate. And if he does buy it, the rest of us will be treated to even more photos.

... maybe Jorge is calibrating his time machine right now to go and get one direct

Good thing it's bigger on the inside. Plenty of jacket storage.

 

[leper-colony]

Its smaller on the outside...

Floating around in Bolivia at the moment... priorities!

 

[mulceber]

Looks like it sold. Hope it went to a member and that he’s thrilled with it.
