Not a official fit pics but I need to see how it fits before all the final works done. Jacket looks great, the only concern is the sleeves looks shorter than last one (the stiches needs to be done like j23). Any suggestions? Adding button cuff?

OK, that looks like an AWESOME suit of armour. Bullets will bounce off that jacket !!!

Just my curiosity, did you purchase the leather and then sent it 5star? ?? If so, the gears are turning...

I think you and Shawn have similar arm lengths. My sleeves typically looked a bit long on him, and were perfect for me. He should shoot you pics with a tape to be sure. Jacket looks fab. Great design!

Maybe something similar to a trojan. 6.5oz is very thick. I hope the zip can handle it.

I agree zipper tape has to be able to work with stiffer hide, a modern man made filament tape is much better than cotton that might distort and fray, cotton zipper tape can patina (yellowing or absorbing some dye from leather or some metal patina stain) and mellow in color with age, while man made fiber zipper tape look as new 10 yrs later, but they are just stronger

Still waiting for fit photos.

Amazing from what I see from pictures

The leather is actually 6.5-7oz

The stitching on the sleeves is an improvement!

i'm into N1 deck-jackets since quiet some time - well deckjackets in general

once in while i saw pics of N1 jackets manufactured by BR and ToysMcCoy in leather

never saw one for sale in europe and in my size so i reached out to @Shawn Ali and asked him whether he could make one for me ...

Here is the result:

Jacket just like it arrived still without artwork:

the mouton is the color "blonde" - premium goat in seal - checkered liner in red (color pops much more in reality than on the pics)

handed the jacket to a dude i met on a online-market here in Germany (guy is american works in Europe) who did the artwork

Craftmanship and materials are splendid

Calling the Irvin enthusiasts!!! What colour of the thicker sheepskins would be best for an Irvin jacket?? Any thoughts about that?

Thanks in advance and thanks Berto for the pic!!
