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

Is there a secure way to give my contact details to an ebay seller for an outside ebay deal? Is picture with details on it still a thing?

Works for me. Worked, at least. I think they've eased on the filters, you can now post links and other stuff that was banned before. I remember at some point you couldn't even type the word "dot". What are you getting? That HH Comet? XD

I’m really happy with how this turned out. Was a bit of a longer wait due to the pattern mods. The base is an hooch hauler but with lapels, cuffs and pockets arrangement like in the ruff’n’ready. For the leather I opted for the “reworked” seal jerky. It’s quite comfortable right out of the box and I find it maybe a bit thicker than Vicenza but less rigid if that makes sense.

Might just get an N1 from IH. Don't know if I want the black or khaki though...

That's a really neat G1. I've always thought a warm lined G1/M422a/G8 would be a nice alternative to the full sheepskin jackets.

Even though I was congratulating myself this week about buying a Carhartt, it's been beaten through the post by this impulse bought Schott CR that I snared off eBay for an utter steal.

I did struggle it on when it arrived and the fit is great, but I'm still not mobile enough to have got a picture. Instead I'll resort to Manuel again to show it to you. It fits me better than it fits him btw.

The jacket is euro made and tagged as sheep leather, unfortunately. So while it has a wonderful drape and softness and pliability, I doubt it will be anywhere near as robust as something in cow. A shame, but I'll give it a few wears once I'm healed up before I decide what to do with it.

Looks really nice. I wouldn't look down at it for being sheep.

I've always liked these...the collar and the patch pocket is great and the back design is cool too. One piece with gussets if I recall.

Yes, one piece with the gussets.

I have been eyeballing Aero's IR for about a year now. For the same reason, the patch pocket and the one-piece back. I also dig the belt, though the Fidelity uses snaps. The whole set-up just caught my eye. Figure this is a good way to get a better idea if I want to go forward with the Aero IR or do something else.

I just cannot help myself. I saw this white label Harley Davidson Sportster on the bay for $100 and pulled the trigger. I already have one, but this one is a bit smaller and should be a tighter fit. We'll see. If it is too tight I'll just pass it on to another FL member as these typically go for much higher than $100... :) I love the cut of these things. So classic.

Please keep me in mind if one fits better than another. :)

My Carhartt Sheffield arrived yesterday. No pics yet, but there will be soon. You'll probably know it as Carhartt's workwear-targeted take on the classic N-1 Deck Jacket, and it's terrific.

More info when I can bend a bit and do some fit pics.
