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

Gotta fess up....this one i could not deny!
Had to break the no new jackets til i sell a bunch vow. Been so good about a year!
But that back! That front! That everything!
Re-setting my jacket sobriety date now.
Be well. Bowen
Well done Abba!
Would’ve been a mistake to pass that one up, and in all my time here I have not seen a jacket quite like it. I can’t wait to see fit pics once it arrives.

I’ve got something very interesting coming in. I believe it will be the first of its kind seen here. Full review upon arrival. I’m excited to say the least.

This old Swedish goatskin jacket is on it's way to me now. Found it on Ebay for 69 gbp, looks like a good fit if measurements are correct.

Picked this one up today. Overall really happy with it. Sleeves are a tiny bit short, but nothing I can’t live with. Leather feels a little bit dry but is otherwise in good condition, so I will wipe it down with water and rub it with oil this evening.

Wow! That looks really good. Does yours have shoulderpads? Mine did and when I removed them it relaxed the shoulders and gave the sleeves a little more Length.

Thanks for pointing me in the sellers direction! No shoulder pads on mine, so not an option. Sleeves look shorter in the pictures than they feel irl. On a custom order I would have speced an extra inch, but it’s not too bad as is.

Definitely, I was expecting something a lot more worn and torn so pleasantly surprised by its good condition.

Oh, another note, the stitch count is insanely high, I’ve never seen anything like it. Need to take detail pictures soon.

The grain looks really interesting, always hard to tell from the shitty pictures from the seller:D

The grain and patina are super nice! Agree about the sellers pictures. I can’t believe my “prop the iPhone against something and use the time delay”-pictures actually show the jacket better than the sellers pictures :)

My money is on a TB x Vanson in the new Bainbridge Leather...maybe a Gambler? Or do you have that model still? Can’t remember if you sold the last one lol

That’s not a bad guess PN!
I hadn’t even heard of the Bainbridge leather but I just checked it out on the TB webpage and it looks stellar.

Going to go hard next week. Something OTR from the 'bay.

Contenders: Aero Ridley (42 or 44 TBD)

Thedi Titan XL

Eastman Roadstar (44-probably too big, we'll see)

Aero Premier HWN 42

Thoughts? Flip a 4 sided coin?
