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

Arrived today, View attachment 445665 View attachment 445666 A very simple style but love it!

Aero Happy Days jacket minus the epaulettes. Battered Seal Horsehide with Lochcarron tartan lining.

I keep saying no more but this is No 5

Can you post some better shots of that leather. I’m thinking about battered seal if I return the above HB and go custom. I haven’t seen much of it in the wild.

Only phone pics I'm afraid.

Although I suppose the clue is in the 'Battered" part of the name it looks quite old and worn in straight out of the box.

WOW!!!! Gorgeous! You may have made my decision for me before I even get my hands on the fit jacket. That is a beautiful hide. Surprised we don't see more of it. How does it compare with vicenza? I know it's lighter than cxl....

I couldn't say as never handled vicenza. Very impressed with this leather though and yes, much lighter weight than CXL.

Oh, hells to the yeah. I currently have a long list of about a dozen Aeros I "need", but the very pinnacle of my wishlist is a triumverate of a seal goat Seabiscuit, a black goat Rockefella, and a black goat Wilderness.

I've not owned a Vicenza. I did, however, try on a halfbelt in it at the factory a few years ago. Very nice. Similar thickness to the CXL FQHH, but softer right off the blocks. Similar drape and hand to the mid-weight steer. Plenty solid - not something you'd have to work to break in, but equally not something you'd feel worried about leaning against a wall wearing. Definitely worth considering, assuming you don't mind the small upcharge. The other big difference from CXL was that it was a much more uniform colour all over, though I don't know if that would change with break in, or if it's like goat and stays fairly even with time.

That dark green Kelpie looks really nice.
I needed a new jacket like a hole in the head but the new website got me as well...
Also a Hooch Hauler but in midnight blue CXL.

The work on my Schott is finished, ready to be shipped. 'The Bandits Golden Belts' has done an amazing job.

Eh that would be a no from me. (Best Simon Cowell voice !)
Each to their own. Plain Jane for me (plain John in reality haha..)

You will love the midnight blue.

That's what I'm telling myself to justify the purchase.
And that I don't have a blue jacket.
Oh wait... I do but it's a wool one and in a different kind if blue so it's not the same, right?

Not the same shade is a pass, not the same material - leather vs wool - is a pass, not the same model is a pass.

You're good lol
