How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

Specs
Midnight blue CXL FQHH
Black stitching and black buttons
Coin pocket and throat latch (hiding under collar)
Isle of Sky Tartan and blue sateen sleeves
Did a slight taper at the hem (original hem spec 19.5 inches reduced to 19 - equates to 1inch reduction in hem diameter)
Nickel hardware

I wanted to make a jacket in midnight blue ever since Ton’s Midnight blue HB. I wanted a cross zip but wanted it more vintage than biker. I was thinking of a STF BL with a D pocket initially but when the hooch hauler came out, the back style caught my eye. I went with a coin pocket instead of a D pocket to compliment the elaborate back since I felt a D pocket would be a bit much with that back. The added throat latch also gives it a vintage aviator feel imho.

Hopefully it fits as well as it looks and once I receive the jacket, I’ll post a more detailed post with fit pics.

You might have just sold me on a Midnight Blue Crosszip.

I have this Headwind A-1 Racer coming. The price was irresistible! Looks like a fantastic quality jacket. Hope it fits.

Can’t wait to read your write-up...This jacket was very tempting. Great catch!

AERO HIGHWAYMAN
Recieved my Aero Highwayman HH today in dark brown. More than happy. Had this custom made with extra sleeve length and slightly longer at the back. View attachment 164159
Lochcarron wool lining plus added inside pocket. View attachment 164162
I'm fortunate that I live nearby the premises where these are made and popped in personally to see Ken, Lydia and the team. I was made to feel very welcome and had a look around the premises and met the staff.
Great company ! Amazing quality. View attachment 164160 View attachment 164159 View attachment 164160 View attachment 164161

Beautiful jacket. I'm very tempted, once I clear some stuff out, to pick up a brown stablemate for my black HWM. I know, I know.... I want it ALL! (My favourite dream is one where I win the Euromillions jackpot, and just roll up at Gala - "Two of everything, please!")

Your lining looksl ike it might be the ancient / weathered version of McLeod tartan? Don't lose your head wearing it!

Love them both! Damn, I want that coat.

Lost Worlds?

Yep! They were in my recap: the navy leathertogs and the custom peacoat that is not so custom any more since it has become a standard offering

What is that buttoned tab by one of the hand warmer pockets?

That's the nicest thing I've seen from Lost Worlds. Outstanding!

It's a full custom order from Johnson Leathers in CXL

Edit: They really were great to work with

I’m pretty sure that will trigger something on @ton312

What an amazong trio of leather jackets. I personally love the last two

Wow, this looks really nice for maybe half of the price of a FW San Mateo. What's the backside design? Perfecto, Cafe Racer, San Mateo style? Is it 4oz (more/less) burgundy Horween HH CXL? Anyway, congrats! Makes me to want one too but I'm done with leather jackets ;-)

The backside design is the same as the original Peter's Aviator style but with an added back panel to make it lower. We designed it that way so that it works better in my riding position.I also did away with the side laces in favour of double straps. Will post pictures later when I get the chance!
And you're pretty much spot on, about 3.5oz burgundy Horween HH CXL. Never say you're done with jackets, because you never know
