B-6 Arnoff - Good Wear Leather

[Kermit]

Hello to all.
A few days ago I received a wonderful B-6 from Good Wear.
John Chapman did a fantastic job... I couldn't have hoped for better.

Here are some pictures :

What a beauty!!
Great work from John as usual. I bet this jacket has you hoping that the cold weather will stay around a while longer!

Good fit. I like it.
I hope my D-1 will fit just as well.

I've been wanting a B6 for awhile and that is exactly what I want, color and all, except I want to inquire about horsehide reinforcements on the sleeves like the B3's sometimes have. If the maker thinks it won't be a problem, I will get that with it.
That jacket is SWEET. Gratz.

Somehow missed this the first time around.
@Kermit what was the lead time?
Also, it looks terrible on you, i’ll do you a huge favor and take it off your hands

Thank you very much Brandrea33.
If I can ask, which jacket did you order from John ?

Thank you very much Bfd70.
The time between ordering and delivery of the jacket was rather long: a little over two years. But sincerely worth it. I loved discussing the options with John, the choice of skin, the choice of contract... it was a really pleasant experience. In fact, I placed an order for a new jacket right after the B-6 was delivered !

And a few photos John took just before he sent me the jacket

I ordered the Hercules pattern. I’m interested in a flight jacket too.

Hot damn that jacket is glorious and fits you perfectly! Makes me want one myself. I've always loved the B6.

Hey that is a beautiful jacket and a great great fit on you man. I see you went with buckles at the waist rather than zippers for adjustment. Nice touch (I'm not sure how effective the zippers are anyway). Congrats on the jacket!!
