PIKE BROTHERS

Cutlasshound

@Cutlasshound:

Does anyone have any experience of the fit/quality of the pike brothers deck jacket?

.

i looked at one of these at the trip out last week ,the quality seemed pretty good ,and the price was good £260 ,where as the buzz rickson range from £400-£600 depending on where you buy them .

i am looking for a buzz rickson but may go for the pike bros n1

Cheers old chap. In the end I had the chance to compare the Buzz and Pike Brothers ones side by side at American Classics. I found the lining on the Pike Brothers to be a bit too coarse and the fit on both the Buzz/Pike didn't quite work on me.

Thankfully I went for the IH one which was far superior in every way, particularly with regards to the lining and cut. The only thing that I will say is that the IH one has quite long arms (for bike riding purposes I know).

Also, totally forgot to post before but I did ask my mate regarding Pointer brand clothing and sadly they don't stock it

well now i have three choices to choose from that will take me about a year to decide then

I'm sure the IH version is every bit as nice, but I have the BR N1 and it is great. It all depends on how traditional you want to stay to the classic N1. Either way you win.

Real Mc Coys are a fourth Option. I like the US Navy stencil prints on those. Just to add a few more options. That said, I love my IH and think it's worth every penny.

oh god dont give me any more choices i will never be able to decide

Huge fan of this brand. I own the Pike Brothers 1942 Zip Deck Jacket (blue) which I´m looking forward to wear in the colder months. It´s a classic. Excelent quality and nice details on this jacket.

I'm a proud owner of two roamer shirts and will probably add at least a couple more at some point.

I have a pair of 1958 roamer pants (15oz raw selvage) 34x36 up for sale or trade, as well as the elephant skin vest in L… just in case anybody is interested.

Nice vest, what kind of lining?

@Anesthetist:

Wool. If its anything like their deck jacket though, i found that lining to be really bloody itchy/uncomfortable around the neck.

Looks decent though. Saw something similar in the rmc store the other day which was tempting

Agreed … the lining is very cheap / itchy wool - same like the deck jackets.

I bought their first deck jacket many years ago ... and now the IH-09.
What a difference! ... double in price - but 5 times better in comfort, look, etc.

Good to know. Didn't know about the lining either.

Here is a picture of my 23oz 1958 roamer pant, worn for a little less than a year and washed once.
really happy with the result.

Great job on this beast, juodek!

BTW how is Pike's 11 oz during summer? Recommendable for the warm days? (Eyeing the 1963 Roamer Pants now)

I wear the IH-09 over a t- no itch & warm.

Pulled the trigger on the 1963 Roamer Pants (11 oz) hoping they'll be suitable as a decent summer jeans…

Dion

…parcel is still chilling at the DHL-center due to the strike. I hope it arrives here before the nasty heat weather is over...

Finkster

I'm sure, you can wear your new pants till the advent season.

Stop - breakin news - The strike is over!!

Dion

Yep, the parcel came today. I'm a bit disappointed by the jawnz though: unfortunately the cut doesn't work for me :(, so I gotta return them to Cultizm. I think the 11oz are pretty wearable during summer after a wash / soak.
