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

As for my own scores, ever since my 'return to the Lounge' I have gone a bit wild (although that is a relative term around here, let's face it). I put in an order for a custom Aero Cafe Racer in brown CXL FQHH last week, should take another 3 months to arrive. I might even pick it up in person if the situation allows it, and make a short Scotland trip out of it while I'm there. With the whole Brexit situation, I figured I can either pay customs fees or buy a return ticket to Scotland.

Apart from that custom order, I also just made good use of the Spring Sale by getting a discounted Trainee Board Racer in Cordovan CXL. Both the hide and style I have always been curious about, more so than with other styles and hides. The combination of both these curiosities rolled into one, along with the superb discount, made me pull the trigger. Something tells me this jacket is gonna be something special...

Catch and release even if I'm still torn as this Highwayman is almost new and the Cordovan CXFQHH batch used for this one is the nicest CXFQHH I've handled so far. Chest, hem and shoulders are perfect and the length is quite good on this one (shorter than my too large size 38 Highwaymans I sold) but I wish the sleeves would be 1 inch longer. As the jacket looks odd on me, there is only one way selling it and searching for a new one, hoping to find such a nice batch of CXFQHH again:

Awesome pick up. Enjoy it.
Thank you


Like the vibes you are going for here! I would wear all of them too but it looks like you're missing the mulholland to complete the look here. . .
Though the Muholland seems to come from this line of repros but it is too modified so I am not 100% sure about its heritage or mix of heritage. The owner of FW did oversee the Joe McCoy way back when Toys McCoy's owner still owns RM.

Ι got this one in the pipeline and currently pondering between an A-2 flight jacket or it’s Indiana Jones brother.

Looks is half the deal, but I also want them for driving around with the top down in my little Miata.

Any help would be more than welcome

@Blackadder got it, I thought you were on the hunt for one but that haul makes it more than enough straight zip chp style jacket


That´s so funny! I too changed my pending order to Black Badalassi...

I always wanted a black badalassi jacket, @Robbie79 has one that he should be wearing more of (I do understand the issues with jacket rotation lol)

I'm sure we will not be disappointed with the leather. Good luck with the Hercules order @Tom71


What have you guys on order?
This is me. Super excited on this project.

Black Badalassi with Grey or Black "Wild Card" lining.
It's a 4 pocket cafe racer w/ August collar (Sheene) with hwm details.
Zip sleeve like a cafe racer.
Nickel hardware Talon.
Chest pocket (ring pull) slanted like the board racer.
Hand warmers with bell pull zippers (close position towards the waistband).
No internal/external kidney panel.
No hwm yoke but w/ shoulder gusset (basically 1 piece back like how I like it).
Hidden size tag.
Thunder Bay label.
Steer hide label to bottom hem.
Internal pocket with snap.


i received a sample of black Badalassi from Greg Field the other week.

How did you like it? I want a Badalassi FL jacket but at this rate I won't get it until next Fall.
