Five new jackets my recent jacket rotation responding to loosing weigh

[jonbuilder]

Towards the end of 2014 I started a gym workout routine, started concentrating on my daily diet, and cut back on the drinking. I dropped 15 lbs over 3 months. Than in 2015 I came down with Crohn’s disease and lost another 40 lbs. I had my colon removed and am working on gaining weigh back. So far I gained 10 lbs since the surgery. MY goal is to put on another 15 and stabilize around 165 Lbs about a size 40 to 42.

Due to the weight lost and change in size during 2015 I sold about 7 or 8 jackets mostly older Aero jackets size 44 that I purchased pre owned on Eabay and a couple of vintage jacket size 46 vintage. I replaced them with one new made to order Johnson Leathers custom, four jackets I purchased from the Fedora Lounge Classifies and one Aero Highwayman purchased from Ebay.

Ebay purchase Aero Highwayman brown FQHH zip sleeves stock size 40 recent in new condition when I received it. I negotiated a price $600 shipped. The highwayman came with wool tartan lining and nickel hardware. I have not taken any pictures, but the jacket fits well. I wore it this morning on my daily early AM one hour dog walk.

Very nice collection of styles. I remember seeing that Barnstormer in the classifieds, a real tour de force! Best wishes for your recovery.

I wish your all the best for your on-going recovery! It's a bunch of lovely jackets you got yourself there. Being a big fan of Alan, I especially like the JL jackets. That 1920s jacket looks so awesome, it actually made me contact Alan again. Great, great jacket. Hope it brings you much joy.
