    Halfbelts and shoulder gussets - is that a thing?

    Hi folks, I am in the process of finalising my halfbelt with Greg Field and prefer a clean back AND an easy to wear leather jacket, so I am wondering if shoulder gussets and halfbelts go together well. Probably everything has already been done in the world of jackets , but didn't manage to find...

    That's not dark at all! That really helped a lot. Do you think chestnut would be dark brown, without too much of a red tint? (I have a aero phwmn in russet vincenza, so I don't want something too close in colour.)

    I am considering either a dark brown tobacco or bone for my upcoming FL. Has anyone a recommendation for a dark, rich brown badalassi or experience with the bone badalassi? Photos are appreciated as always.

    Maybe. But as a liner that doesn't matter much. It a dense fabric, no pile to speak and so it doesn't trap much heat. My lining is a 14 oz. fabric and it seems to be less warm than the lightweight lochcarron tartan in my aero jacket.

    Full pigment is no option for me. I haven't seen the brown one in the flesh but I find the blue iteration a bit bland, no luster and depth. I will have to wait until they find a adequate replacement. The brown cow is lovely and I prefer the tone of brown over the shinki but it is a teacore hide.

    Yes, it's not in mine though : not enough cloth left. But I got nice white corduroy-like lining instead.

    Thank you! Yes. I will get a modified halfbelt when and if they will start using semianiline, dyed through brown hide. Unfortunatly, though understandably, the brown shinki pony is history. But we are getting the fit jacket done now, so that the production can Start asap. Sidenote...

    Thanks! That put me at ease. Deep in my heart I knew it already but, as with all things new and expensive, I got a little bit overexited. Thanks for talking your trouble.

    New modified Route 66 : Overall this jacket is all I looked for. Sadly I have two gripes with this jacket. First being, that the kidney panel is not symmetrical as can be seen on the pic above. On the right side the panel is 5mm higher than on the left side. Of corse this can only been seen...

    That's me you are portraying here. I ordered on Jan. 22, 2022 and as per the last email I am lucky to recieve the jacket in mid to late april. I paid the full price as requested on Jan. 19, 2023 :/ Edit: By mid april I should get my second jacket.
