Скачать или смотреть Practical Menswear Style Journey 252 : Maverick Jacket Leather G-1 Repro Top Gun REDO VERSION

Wherein I revisit a classic piece w' a slightly better, but more expensy, take.

Wherein we find the pitfalls of attempting to make the thing that resembles the thing without paying the cost for closer attempts to the thing that still don't completely reproduce the thing or whatever. STILL. EXCEPT THIS TIME, WE MAKE A BETTER LOOKING THING THAN THAT THING & SPEND A LITTLE EXTRA FOR THE BETTER RESULT THING.

I think half the patches on the original Mav jacket are supposed to be his Dad's old patches. [AND APPARENTLY MAYBE HIS OLD JACKET, TOO.]

THIS BROOKLYN ONE HAS NO EPAULETTES, THO, BTW.

Other Brands: Cockpit USA * Orvis * LL Bean * J Peterman * Alpha Industries * Cambridge Classics * Scania Woods [Blair] * Excelled. If you can get quality leather cheaper elsewhere, I'm not stopping you.

Did I mention in the previous vid that Alpha discontinued the CWU [M-3?] except in black? I don't care for black leather jackets, obviously. They also run SMALL but the newer models have the inner storm flap that I mentioned that is mostly "meh" if you want the cleaner open look of the older ones. [Unzipped, that is.]

I'LL POST THE UPDATE PHOTOS IN THE COMMUNITY MENU FORTHWITH, AS USUAL.
