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

[barnabus]

I've just ordered a waxed cotton jacket. Traditional Trialmaster style, you know the drill. But not a Belstaff.

As you may remember, I've always erred towards waxed cotton rather than leather, even though you're probably thinking "who is this bloke again?" because I haven't posted for ages because I haven't worn a jacket at all since about May.

Nevertheless, as a Brit who rumbles about on an old Triumph Bonneville, waxed cotton has always appealed.

So I've just ordered this -

I think it might be quite nice, but I'll let you know, obv.

And if it is nice, I've got a plan...

H.L.B. Corp B-3 from New Zealand days. Can't wait to see these legendary merino fleece B-3 jackets:

The Schott 184 arrives tomorrow. New with tags but research reveals that the gold Schott Logo lining was used in the mid-90’s. New very old stock? Time will tell..

Someone had an old stash, very cool, just want to know how the leather is, it looks like good naked cowhide for sure...better than the 80's versions...

Just when I thought I can't be impressed with leather anymore... Veg tanned horsehide. If it only fit me.

I also got thee a few days ago. Bought them with an intent to resell but I've never had a cooler, better pair of leather pants so they stay. Dsquared2.

Who's the maker/brand?

Who's the maker/brand?

Neil Barrett. I don't know much about it but the prices are generally astronomical.

This arrived yesterday and it's absolutely terrific. It deserves its own thread I think, so that's what I'm going to do.

Unexpected development, but I might be about to score an original 1930s Sears Hercules half belt. Needs some repairs, but the guy selling it is going to do the work and if it didn't need any fixing, I wouldn't be able to afford it.

Never would have ever thought I'd be able to get something like this. Big thanks to @jeo for the assist.

Wow! 1941-42 model, that’s the one we think might be an Albert-Richard. Sweet!

That jacket is damn nice Jake. Do you have any photos of the bottom hem?
