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

I think it's a throat latch which is attached to the under collar when not in use? Similar to the throat latch on a classic Trenchcoat.

It sur is, i just don't understand the design of it...
Why does it have buttons and velcro?
Ohh, maybe there is a patch of velcro in the back of the neck similar to the one on the collar. And the button is there to fully remove the latch if not needed?

No Velcro on back of neck, just the other side. Button seems to be the anchor point, and like you say, easily removable. Edit: I reread your post- yep, I think the picture illustrates what you are saying.

Not sure why my perforated jacket has it. Probably just easier to have just one Force design to build. I guess it’ll keep rain off of the neck but I’ve never tried it.

And I would bet the pants are carpenters from Paulsen/Veddel, similar to pic below.
They still produce a tailored to measure line, also in leather...

Waiting until next year before pulling the trigger on my Good Wear. Still kinda cleaving to a depot re-dye of an Acme 21996, but I'm still havering as to whether I should go for just the dark seal shinki instead.

Nice sailboat Jon, Annapolis is a nice little town, hopefully you were able to enjoy it. shipping a boat across the country sounds stressful, good luck with the journey.
