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

[Will Zach]

Still hunting for my perfect Cafe Racer, this will be attempt #3 arriving next week. Plain simple Harley Davidson from 70s I think? Tried a vintage Excelled first ( measured smaller than seller described), the a new stock Aero CR (larger chest than advertised), so fingers crossed this is it!

I just got a darned near identical one on @Monitor's reco, size 40-42. I like it very much, great simple cut. Hide was a bit stiff. The label was hanging by a couple of threads so I cut it off and saved, of course. I gave mine a machine wash on warm with detergent and then a coat of Obenaufs. Hide is supple now, deeper black than before. Happy to own a classic. Edit: mine is a white label. The cut and the leather looks identical though.

Bought the "Reeves" from FilmJackets. It's supposedly based on the jacket Keanu Reeves wears as John Wick in the movies of the same name.

I thought filmjackets had ceased business?

Ton's Vanson Gambler.

What? That fit him so well!

He's a nut job and I have no scruples when it comes to taking advantage.

Their store still seems to be open, albeit over Amazon. The forums seemed pretty dead, though.

In all fairness to you, I don't think you posted the Gambler in HDs definite keeper thread.. Let me guess, you want a KotR/J106 thingy like our new Lithuanian member got himself?

Actually I’ve got a ba***rd of my own in mind and it’s not a cross zip. I’ll have to ask Aero really nice to help me out here. Fingers crossed they’ll be on board.

Are you going with a chp center zip something er other ? @ton312

Other. Something that finally puts me into my true self. I’m scared of my motorcycle now so no bike jacket.

^is it something western? like marlboro country western


yesterday I ordered a type3 in 13oz made from indigo dyed gi fabrics from the same brand I previously bought the type3 in indigo x black for my brother.

i also got smitten by copper hardware in how they patinas, and shorter body 5 buttons type3 in another tonal blue stitching and rarer fabrics looks kind of unique and would be a summer jacket

actually drooled over the PBJ version, but had to settle with the budget friendly local made one 1/4 of the price that I know has a good fit.

Tony, you've been through so many nice leather jackets. What exactly are you looking for..??

Stay tuned Hd. Hopefully I can get that good question answered soon.

 

[navetsea]

is it suede? sometime in the future I dream on suede type 2 maybe in grey or greenish grey unlined with the finished side in

 

[Sloan1874]

Packaging is like the drum role before the "reveal".
I like that too but Lost World's and Aero via Thurston Bros have no bells and whistles but damn nice jackets!!!

You, Regius, have some outstanding jackets with versatility. You could probably mix and match forever with your current choices. Dare I say, "your journey has come to an end"?

I think Goodwear edges it for understated presentation. It arrived trussed up in as small a box as you could do without hurting the jacket - probably to get through customs without attracting attention.

I ordered a Levi's brown buffalo leather trucker jacket -- can't wait!

Just received an email from Aero, my Grizzly is done! Fingers crossed I will have it before the weekend! I must say I am rather nervous. Grizzlys look weird, I can only hope mine will look weird in a good way.

I'm looking forward to fit pics and I'm sure it will look good on you despite the perfect timing of Aero to finish it at the beginning of the cold season I'm also considering a Grizzly but more likely one with cowhair panels even if my wife would rather prefer me looking like a Teddy bear than a Cow

Grizzlies are the best! I love mine!

Although its not an easy pattern to size, because it is super V shaped.
Looking forward to fit pics, fingers crossed hoping it fits!

 

[Mich486]

Yep as Carlos said there is a massive drop from chest/shoulders to waist. If you get that right is a very comfortable jacket to wear
