    Just got my Good Wear Leather Dubow A-2 jacket two days ago. Sweet piece of work by the one and only John. The deep dive he takes into the details to keep it authentic is just amazing!

    Thanks Thanks! I ordered it last April, so just under a year lead time... Really nice going through the process of measurements, personal alterations to the design and choice of lining.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Yes, that is mine. So, so excited to see it finished after a long wait and many mails going back and forth with the tweeks to the original design. Give it a week and the fit picks should be up on IG @hidesnboots
