Interesting gold-label Brooks with an unusually normal point collar ... changes the whole look. I like it! And check out the size of those buckles. Size 36 (19" p2p), $130 OBO + shipping.

This one's real, though, right? The real @ton312 only wears lambskin, right?

Note the hidden hand warmers. Kind of a neat compromise if you want a sleeker vintage look, but also a warm place to put your hands in the cold weather you'd actually be wearing this jacket in. Anybody know if these were implemented in the '80s at the same time as the regular hand...
JC Penney, 23" outer p2p; priced at $65 + shipping w/ Offer, but I received an offer from the seller for $35. Looks nigh on pristine.

Fox Creek Commander, $75 + shipping. Heckuva deal if it fits. Listed as a 42, but tag says 40. My understanding is these run 1 to 2 sizes small—can anyone comment?

Pardon the denim, but here's a neato US-made Lee I haven't seen before. Pearl snaps and a sweet collar. In Canada. 19.5" p2p. Too small for me, and a bit pricey, but I got an offer from the seller for almost 40% off (making it around 80 USD), so he seems eager to sell...
What handymike said. Also, I'm a big fan of any kind of white or light-colored leather over dark denim jeans and a dark sweater. Put this over a navy turtleneck and you're set.
Any thoughts on era? (Not to put a freshness date on JMax, but...) 1970s? Leather still looks fairly substantial. Seems the Penney's/Ward/Sears hides trended thinner over the decades, maybe starting in the '60s? But I'm wrong a lot.
Was this posted? Ward, $50 + shipping. Pictured measurements just short of being helpful but dammit, he tried. And listing says proceeds support a rescue farm, with cows, which is ironic, but still cool. Does mention an issue with getting the (main?) zipper started, but no details on that...
Oakbrook, smallish 40; 199 USD + shipping w/ Best Offer. Don't think I've seen this particular design with the Oakbrook label on it before.

Interesting idea about shrinkage and conditioning the panels to re-align them. On this jacket, I think it's just the pockets themselves that are misaligned. There's a fold on the left side between the square pocket and the zipper running up toward the left collar. I'm just eyeballing it, but...
