My last 30's HB was a 42"...I'm pretty sure it'll be a slim fit but a good one. Hoping it's not a good fit for the other interested parties!

That's why I haven't listed measurements or price on this thread or started an ad in the classified section. Several members jumped right on this via messages and I am waiting for decisions of No. 1 on my private conversation. I want the prospective buyer to be sure of fit with my approx measurements because I don't want the hassle of them sending it back and going through that. My measurements are listed as approx because many measure differently. I normally wear a size 40..so look closely at my photos wearing the jacket and notice how it fits me. I know who I would like to sell it to, however being the honest young man that I am ;) it goes to the first one on the list or then the next member interested.

OK now back to photos of KEEPERS...I mean definite KEEPERS. I am so sorry that I fell off the KEEPER wagon into the ditch of INDECISION and CHANGE OF MIND. Please don't be like me...and keep this KEEPER thread going the tried and true KEEPER way of those who have clear, certain and precise direction of KEEPERIZM.

I know it's not much but this Hein Gericke got me through the coldest days and nights this winter could dish out, without ever feeling cold which makes it a definite keeper, regardless of the place it takes on my favorites list. But yeah, this one is a life saver so I've really little choice in the matter since I doubt I'd ever find a jacket as useful as this one again. . . Great jacket in any case.

That's a totally bad ass jacket, Monitor, and don't let anyone tell you different.

Wow, that teamster certainly is a handsome jacket I really like the button up jackets, they make a nice change from zips.

Hard to explain about the hide. It is a little stiff...but not like CXL. Really it is a nice somewhat lighter weight. The sleeves are nice. Seems like armholes are set high and quite narrow on this style. I like. I've only had it for a few hours so have to update as I wear it more. Wouldn't you know..it's mid 60s here in Indiana today with plentiful sunshine. Don't really need a jacket...but I've been wearing it some.

Beautiful. Mid-sixties is jacket weather in this neck of the swamp. That's one jacket that will be really interesting to watch develop. How's the fit?
