Welcome back to another episode of the Break/Fix Podcast, where we connect the past, present, and future of automotive and motorsport culture. In this episode, we’re reaching for the stars—literally—as we sit down with the Owner and Director of Operations at Luna Replicas, a brand that blends the spirit of adventure with the precision of history. Known for their meticulously recreated NASA-era flight jackets, watches, and accessories, Luna Replicas celebrates the heroes of the space age through authentic, wearable art.
But this isn’t just about fashion - it’s about legacy. We’re joined by Max Kaiserman to explore how his team channels their passion for aerospace (and Motorsports) history into every stitch, and how the automotive and motorsports communities have embraced these designs for their shared love of engineering excellence, exploration, and bold storytelling. So, buckle up for a conversation that’s going to be out of this world!
