    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    The after image is what this pullover should have looked like in the first place - cracking job on the transition. I guess fringe was a thing back in the 1950's due to Roy Rodgers/Dale Evans, their trusty steed Trigger and Jeep Nellie Bell being on TV at the time. Oh yeah, the Lone Ranger too...

    Absolutely splendid! Lots of skill and talent there for sure.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Super nice Type III - kinda reminds me of my Vanson Maverick in Brandy Roma leather although yours if far more luxurious looking with the premium hides and brass hardware. I'm jealous but will have to push on with life.

    Style and presence - on point look as usual. Great hair too!

    I (as I'm sure others) look forward to a more comprehensive set of images of this most distinctive jacket after it arrives. Really like the contrasting stitching which gives the jacket a more custom vibe.

    To return or not to return?

    As other posters noted, the fit is not in your favor regardless of the sleeve length. If you are set on a Type-III jacket, you might consider a Vanson Maverick in their Roma leather. Torfjord and I (and some others I think) have one in the Brandy Roma. The leather is super nice and the fit is...

    It's a bold look but it WORKS! I like it.

    Leather Down Jacket

    Here are a couple of Schott leather/down jackets that I picked up several years ago on their sale page. The tan one is waxed pebbled cowhide w/cotton lining and down filling (not sure of the percentage). I bought this about 7 years ago for around $500.00 and wear this more frequently than the...

    Exactly - they are trying to make something out of nothing and to do so, it requires tremendous amounts of electricity to create/mine each coin which is expensive. Another pyramid scheme for the few to take from the many. If all those on the merry-go-round cashed in their chips at the same...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I think it's the color that makes this a standout compared to your first jacket. I have an Aero LHB in Cordovan CXLSH which I love due to the unique hue of the hide and its tremendous graining. The Burgundy color of your creation is much richer and workmanship appears flawless. It will be...

    Excellent! This gem is even better than the one you made/posted about a while back. Beautiful color and the super clean design/lines make this a standout.

    Vanson jacket appreciation

    Great looking Vanson in a very unique color. BTW, do you have a reference for the jeans w/the lower patch pockets? Very interesting - thanks for your participation.

    The look is you.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Very special denim jacket - are the gold dots actually brass or copper? The clean design of the back of the jacket with the adjustable straps to the side is rather unique as well. It must be really nice to have such a large spread to mosey about on - I'm squeezed onto 5 measly acres but it's...

    Are the pants/slacks in the process of having the cuffs hemmed? I've seen those who wear the selvedge jeans with the cuffs rolled up but this look (if it is a look) appears unfinished. A bit of a departure from your usual 'on point' vibe.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Very Impressive! I just viewed the images and thought what a clean design and perfect fit, then reading the text I realized you actually constructed this gem! Really like it -and the hides appear to be of desirable quality - a winning look in my book!

    It's a Vanson Maverick - what's not to like!

    Excellent transformation - you made the jacket into what it was meant to be. Another standout effort!
