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

[navetsea]

Well tbh I tried to convince Denny to build me an undercover weed cop jacket based on the wayfarer in natural cxl but that invitation was declined. So I had to go back to the drawing board. Things suddenly fell into place and made sense. Especially after seeing the last few midnight jackets that have been posted. Hopefully this will be a quick build!

midnight blue Type3 with zigzag reinforced collar
with badge eyelets on the left chest pocket to satisfy your cop fetish

My french workjacket came in. It's actually like New, but the leather is kinda dull and lifeless. I've given it a surface treatment and a shine and it's much better for it.

Is it goatskin? Fit looks great!

@ton312 I'm not really sure, but it shined up really great and has interesting, variable grain.

I think it’s goat. From the grain it sure looks to be.

I think you are right, but the grain is more varied than my other goats.

I am so jealous that so many of you can shop for vintage jackets. It is impossible to find anything that fits someone who is 6.6 tall and normally build...
I went to many many vintage stores in NYC and they all told me forget about it...
Whenever you see something having 28inch back and arm length please report immediately.

Sheep can have wilder grain than goat

Been chasing one of these for a while. This one looks pretty clean apart from a few repairs so hopefully the fit is good!

So, my new (old) jacket showed up...
Can anyone help me figure out the maker?

What product(s) did you use? How many coats did you apply?

Used a leather cream first which soaked right in. Laid it on the hot floor on my bathroom for 2 hours then applied a conditioner With lanolin and beeswax and let it sit for a while. Then furiosly brushed With a horsehair brush until it had a good shine.

Ooh man that checks a lot of boxes! Zipped trucker up front, HB back, snap cuffs. And that collar is dreamy.

Wow this one is really nice with a lot of details - I more and more look at suede jackets these days even if I didn't like suede jackets at all a while ago...
