EB is my favorite for jackets and 🥾 shoes
He certainly did know how to make stuff and what to make. Bronson is selling reproductions of some immediate post WW2 jackets. I've come to appreciate the quality of Bronson products, although some of them can get a bit spendy. If I didn't already have a reproduction of a Skyliner that was made by Bauer in the 90s I'd snag one of those. Thanks for watching!
Interesting, thanks a bunch.
And their products Today, are still stellar and economical compared to others.
Thanks for watching! They kind of got away from the Expedition Level gear of the 50's and 60's and turned more to outdoor fashion there for a while, but they're back on track now.
@@sargevining Yes Sir.
👍 Thank you.
Yer welcome! Thanks for watching!
Another good one. I have a couple of modern down parkas. Unless I will be standing around outside then I don't put them on until it's down to zero. Actually I have a Carhartt ranch coat that works almost as good. It is unless you have to sit around outside or a cold car broke down in the middle of no where. It is also heavier. I would assume the B7 Aluetion parka was probably heavier. At around $2500 for a new one, I will never know. The quilted pants and jacket under canvas and later nylon shells must of become part of every armies cold weather gear. Don't know if it was because of Korea or sooner.
I remember going deer hunting with quilted pants and jacket under my buffalo plaid wool mackinaw and canvas outer trousers. All the guys on the snow plows and garbage trucks wore WW2 surplus parkas in the winter. I almost bought an Eddie Bauer commemorative 1941 Parka a few years ago--but down here I'd likely only get to wear it once a year. Thnaks for watching!
Ok I vote for a new series, a Paw Patrol watch along with Sarge! It'll be RUclips gold...
I save all the Paw Patrol stuff for my grandkids. Still---not a bad idea----
