    Good Wear Ventura (Modified)

    My chest at half breath is 43.5 and the pits front and back are 24.75. I cannot wear a thick sweater under this jacket but I don't believe this style of jacket was designed that way. I can wear a tee shirt with a denim or thick type dress shirt and have plenty of room.

    I'm not sure I understand your question. I downloaded the pics off the Himel bros website and uploaded them into photoshop to post here.

    Here are a few pics of a prototype Heron Dave has made in Buffalo hide. I'm not sure but I think it was modeled from a vintage Levi's jacket. I have been following Dave's work for some time and I am now in the process of getting a Heron made. I have been fortunate to own a few jackets from John...

    He uses the same tannery that JC uses in Japan. The seal 16160 that you had would be a good representative of the hide Dave would carry.
