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

I’ve got some serious hang ups when it comes to length but this looks perfect to me. For the front measurement I go from the top of the zipper to the bottom of the jacket. I see what you mean about the 1” drop on the front so no need to measure again. Thanks for the numbers brother, much appreciated and congrats again!
The only problem you’ve got is Sydney weather not cooperating.

Well I know what I don't have coming in...
Ah well, win some, lose some I suppose....
HD's HB, huh? Man, such a shame it didn't happen, it was your size and all...
I've been after that hide for nearly 12 years!! ARGH!! Ah well I have extra beer money tonight.

Oh man, nothing worse than that! Okay, tons of things worse than that but it's just super frustrating. I was absolutely sure that jacket was already yours! Don't think you could've spec'd it any closer to your size.

Maybe we can source that hide for a custom project?
Anybody knows who supplies it and if some variation of it is available?
I actually do know of one maker who can get something very similar. But I'd rather not go through them.
No more buying jackets until........Uh-oh... Fonzie's done it again!
I should have shown more restrain knowing that I have an Eastman Californian in Havana Brown coming sometime in the next few short weeks but I couldn't control myself any further and just bought a Thurston's Buco J-100 in Dark Seal Vincenza!
I've always felt that I "needed" one of those to round up my collection so, if this one fits the way I think it will, I will be very close to ending my collection on a couple of high notes.
No more buying jackets for me after that, if anything, I will trade later on (if the bug bites again) existing ones in my already quite decent collection with other TFL members, but I will try to avoid the eBay route for good!
Ps: This Buco x Aero is gonna be epic, by the way, I am very excited. @Carrie as usual, was a pleasure to deal with.

Someone buy this before I do. You don't even have to keep it. Just pull a Nick; buy it, store it a few months and sell again, I'll gladly help you out there. jesus, that black fqhh is beautiful and I love the way they do the seams on this style (french seams, is it that what you call it?), jacket looks much less box-shaped than it does with their regular rollover seams. Also, love the back design. For some reason I like this yoke better on this style than on the ^1930s HB, it just looks better if in company with these three panels below it.

I've had an open tab with that jacket in it all week.

HA. What if I told you....
I'm actually really friggn' happy to finally add a lighter weight jacket to the stable
The jacket in question was a fit jacket from TB for my midnight blue HB order. This pic was from two years ago. Be interesting to see how it's changed/aged.

That ain't no "light-weight" jacket there -- more like a mid-weight. Congrats Tony -- it is stunning! Glad to see that you have finally crossed over to the dark side!

The mid weight leathers are just another rabbit hole inside a rabbit hole @ton312
