Customer photo review of 1940s US Navy N-1 Deck Jacket - Cost-effective Version
Daniel R.
This is a great jacket! Very warm during our Northern Michigan winters and has been holding up well. My only complaint is the zipper is not the best but does work alright for now. Just disappointing in a jacket of this quality and price to have such a cheap and clunky zipper.

Had been looking for this style for a minute and finally found Bronson. I wore it 2 days in a row and kept getting subtle compliments so I know it's the right one! Great quality and authentic fit.

Adam S.
Great quality heavyweight shirt. Perfect as shirt or light jacket. I went for a 42 (usually wear a UK 40) and fits great. Not washed yet, so can't tell you about any shrinkage. Fantastic service as always; would recommend!

Simon T.
The quality of the t-shirt is superb. I expect this to last for years. It may be almost too thick to wear on the hottest of summer days due to the thickness. Definitely size up from your usual.

Customer photo review of USMC HBT Duck Camo Dungaree Gunner Smock (Modified)+2
Luis L.
Very cool military inspired garment. The USMC modifications make the garment look and feel very functional and the Frog camo print turns heads. Pairs nicely with brown, green and blue denim, chinos and cargos. The size 38 garment pictured a roomy fit to it. I measure 6ft tall, 38 inch Chest and weigh 155-160lbs. The size 38 smock itself has the following measurements: 23.5” armpit to armpit and 28.75” length from the collar neckline to bottom hem. Would recommend for Bronson to move the sleeve ...

Lars M.
Super jacket! Nice and heavy, namely 1700 grams in XXL. Finally, a waist pull that also sits at waist level, not at hip level. This was my first order from Bronson and definitely not the last. Even if you don't see it in the picture, as it has already gotten dim, the jacket has a noble shine. Why did I choose Bronson? Let me explain briefly. The vast majority of manufacturers selling very expensive M51, M43, or M65 jackets proudly announce that they meet Mil Spec standards. In reality, Mil Spec ...

Kevin L.
Really nice jacket, and heavy. Like really heavy. It’s about as well made as any of the more expensive versions of this type out there. It has the feeling like it can take anything you throw at it and ask you to try again. As far as the fit goes, I think I got a size too big. I’m about 5’8” and 180lbs. Not super in shape, but I run and work out frequently. I wear a medium in pretty much all American brands, 40-42 in Japanese brands, and a 32-34 waist size in most Japanese/ US made jeans (35” Sam...

Thomas R.
Thought it would match my Carhartt jacket and does so perfectly!! Can’t believe the quality. It’s one of my favorite hats and it was funny that I had it on me when the request for a review came in.

Jiwon C.
This selvedge jacket looks amazing. This is pre washed so i am deciding whether to soak this or not. I am 180cm/ 86kg normally wear US L/XL. Bronson customer service is also amazing that Leah sent me pictures that best matches my nonstock selvedge denim jeans. It helped a lot for choosing the product. Only wish shipping is faster. It took 3 weeks to get to Texas.

Great lightweight vest- I’ll wear under a jacket for a lil’ extra warmth on those cold days, as a house vest, or by itself to look like a Vietnam veteran. Great purchase.

Customer photo review of 1878 Wabash Blouse One Pocket indigo Stripe Denim Jacket
Larry B.
This is an incredible jacket. Everyone is wearing type one or type two jackets so this is one that you won't see which makes it cool. Buy one size larger, wash it once and it'll shrink down and fit like a glove. The quality is top notch from the super heavy material to the quality stitching and features. I love it.

Exactly as listet. Heavy weight, nice white-beige color. I ordered 38, I am 5.9 but gained some weight so will be ordering a size up next time. These folks are really good, can´t wait to see what they bring next. Now waiting for my A-2 jacket to arrive. Very good job Bronson!

Customer photo review of USN 3st N-1 Woolen Deck Jacket (PLAIN)
Joseph D.
Bronson 42(XL) has arrived and it could not be more perfect! FYI, I am 5'9"; 148lbs.; 39.5" chest; 32" waist; 15" neck. I am wearing a thin long-sleeved undershirt under a thick flannel button-up shirt under a USGI GI sweater. Zipped and buttoned up with all this, the neck is snug and I cannot button over the throat latch, but it is comfortable otherwise (without the high-neck sweater, throat latch works snuggly). The body is the perfect amount of room I wanted and I can snug up the waist a bit...

This N1 deck jacket is a winner. The jacket material is very close to the original, the sewing and seams are top notch, I went over every inch and could not find any faults. A well made product at a reasonable price, I am very pleased with my purchase.

A+ This classic A-1 is made with a very tight grain hide that blocks 100% of the wind. Though not made for the coldest winter days, I’ve found it perfect when correctly layered down into the 20’s Fahrenheit!

Love the jacket so much. I’ve been basically wearing it every chance I get. Haven’t washed it yet, and am looking forward for the fading to start coming in. Love what you guys are doing and will definitely purchase more garments in the future. Thanks!

Leon R.
Needed a warm jacket when it was too cold for my Eastman A2s and original G1 jackets. This jacket fits the bill for that. It is very warm. And a very nice fitting jacket. Took 15 days shipping to arrive to my home in the USA. While this is a budget reproduction of the b10 it is well made and a nice looking jacket. And as I said it’s very warm. Oh and a nice surprise was in the right cargo pocket… a spare button. That’s a nice touch.

Customer photo review of U.S. Army M-1951 Parka
John D.
This M51 parka has quickly become my default jacket. As with seemingly everything Bronson puts out, this is incredibly well constructed, especially for it's price. It's very roomy, which makes it ideal as an outer layer in cold weather, and also holds up well enough under light rain. At 5'8" and 150 lbs I was worried that the size small would feel slim but it's actually perfect if you're into baggy fits.

Customer photo review of 10.5 oz Cotton Tubular Gusset T-Shirt - Sand+1
Josh M.
Great quality material and construction. Customer service is awesome helping with sizing and other inquiries. Just make sure you review sizing charts. I’m 5’11” 165lbs. Usually a medium or large and sized up to a large. After a cold wash and low dry it did shrink and is pretty slim fitting. My suggestion is to size up two for a more relaxed fit. See photos for measurements after wash.

Jim A.
5’9” 155 lb, 42 inch chest 32 inch waist. Size 42 is perfect fit. I do wash with fabric softener and dry with high heat before wearing. I collect vintage denim jackets and this is a great reproduction. Thank you Bronson. I was going back and forth between the 38 and the 40, Mia from customer service recommended at 42. Back in the 60s these were cut very short and Bronson is following the original cut. For a more modern fit, size up.

Customer's vintage black Loopwheel Tubular Athletic T-Shirt neatly folded on a wooden surface, with tag still attached.
Irakli N.
This is the best-quality heavy T-shirt I own and at the price you get such quality - it's a total bargain. If you consider it is also loopwheel / tubular, which costs a lot more to make, it's a total steal. A must-have in your wardrobe. You may end-up wanting to have multiple. I know I did. Make sure to order your usual size. Some have commented to order size-up, but you really don't have to. I initially did that and the shirt was too large. These shirts are true to size

Samuel G.
Great cut to these pants, they hang very nicely from waist. Lightweight material but feels strong and durable. Nice loose fit for exercise. I'm 5'11 80kg, I got a size large, fit is perfect. A small loop on the hip to hang keys from would be cool addition.

N-1 USN Jacket. Fresh out of the bag. Love the color, well built jacket. Sturdy outer fabric, liner is soft and warm. Ideal for winter. Size 44 is spot on for my 1.83m (6ft)

Daniel R.
Once again an awesome garment from Bronson. The hbt fabric is much sturdier than another reproduction that I have. The pocket bags are sturdy as well. Definitely will resist getting holes worn into them by keys. Quite happy with these trousers.

Customer photo review of USN M-421A Summer Flight Jacket+1
Frans H.
I really like the perceived authenticity of this jacket. Details like the pen pocket and the label on the inside pocket lift it up even more. I washed the jacket on low temperature and after that washed it again with a water repellent agent added. It gives the jacket a slightly used appearance. I added a squadron patch and USN nameplate plus a USN stencil on the inside pocket. Size 44. Attention: colour is off because of artificial lighting, it is less tan in real life.

Customer photo review of Lot 391 Cossack Goatskin Leather Jacket
Charles L.
Awesome jacket! One of the best buyings I've made from Bronson Mfg. Great quality for this price range. Leather is super soft and shiny. Does not look cheap at all! Lining is super soft too and feels nice at touch. I am 1m76 and 70kg and picked size 40. Fit is perfect with enough room to wear a sweater underneath or alone without the jacket looking too baggy at all. I love that you can adjust the waist with the straps at the back. Sleeve length is perfect. I only wish the total length was 1 or ...

Amazing! I'm 184cm, 76 kg, got a size 40, perfect fit. Not loose at all, but I can still wear the waist knit blousing, as it was meant to. The sweater is thick and very warm, outstanding quality

Customer photo review of US Navy Watch Cap - Black
George M.
I had my father's watch cap as a boy. It eventually fell apart. All other 'woolen caps' had four 'points' which is easier to assemble, but looks horrible no matter which way you line them up. Navy watch caps were designed to not only keep sailors warm (wool is warm even when wet) but too also fit comfortably under a helmet.

Really well done hat. When it came it got crumpled in shipping. I couldn’t put it in a good looking shape making me almost return it, however the fit was excellent as well as material. I gave it the wash on 20c and i formed it to the shape wile wet and left it to dry that way and it worked well. Lucky it didn’t shrink and it looks great. I feel Bronson is really strong in they’re denim and cotton game. So far i have most of their models and they did great work on this one. Unusually it has linin...

Customer photo review of S801XX 1943 War Simplified Model Selvedge Denim Jeans
Shawn L.
Materials: wonderful heavy weight denim, very hairy and stubby/textured. Love the details such as the camo pocket bags. I probably could have gone down one size but I got the 34 and they shrunk down after the first wash. I still need to wear a belt. Fit is a bit baggier than I'm used to, but that makes for a very comfortable wear. I'm 5'10, 163 lbs. with a waist of 32-33" Can't wait to try other Bronson denim.
