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

[Peter Mackin]

So I'm looking at Easter

Watching the box ping back and forth from post offices in both Austin and Dallas was kinda fun. The perfect route if an Alligator was chasing you.

Just making sure they break in the jacket before it reaches the next owner

What's the story with USPS priority international?
I shipped a jacket just last month from Scotland to NY,6days it took from the time I dropped it off till it was delivered.
Here's my beef,I've had a Goodwear shipped on 3rd/December and tracking shows it scanned into middlesex-essex ma distribution facility,,4th Dec,then nothing, it shows still in origin country.
So much for priority!it shows in transit to next facility,,i hope that's the airport, I won't criticise uk mail ever again,and I worked for them for 34years .know all about December pressures etc .don't think I will be wearing the new jacket this Christmas:-(

Yeah will hafty stye in Sir if it's yer warrum jaikit "en Route" ?

Or is immediate substitution available from the already arrived collection ?

It reminds me of the pegasus.

When the collar extends beyond the shoulder seam then yes, it’s pretty big.

I was following that listing on mercari waiting for the price to drop but when I looked back and the price dropped it was already sold! Nice to see a lounger got it!

The last price drop lined up with the cutoff threshold for a coupon I had, so I pounced to maximize the discount percentage. If it doesn't work out I'll let you know and give you first crack at it.

The West Ride jacket arrived at the Buyee warehouse yesterday so now I'm waiting on the package consolidation process. Assuming all goes smoothly I should get the package mid to late next week, though deliveries seem to taking a bit longer due to the holiday season.

Got this wool/deerskin jacket by The Flat Head off Fromjapan recently

I honestly need to ban myself from making anymore jacket purchases of any kind until I clear out, like, 75% of my closet. It's become a bit too much of a compulsion...

Still, this is quite nice and I look forward to wearing it when temps cool down.

This is my favorite of your recent jackets. I do like corduroy.

This is a great "combo" jacket. I like the use of deerskin for it's soft feel and flexibility. This jacket would certainly have caught my eye.

Idly looking at a few bits atm. I'd like some more Winter coat options than I currently have in my wardrobe. A WPG 1916 spec short Mackinaw overcoat is in consideration right now, with a longer term view, potentially, to a Sterlingwear peacoat (The Navigator, specifically) and, perhaps for Spring 2025, a sage green Valley Apparel MA1. The main issue with any of these is being as sure as I can be of the sizing before committing to ordering something from the US, getting hit by hefty US shipping plus import tax on the way in (hard with the peacoat especially), and the impracticality of returning if I need a size up. I'm sure I'll work it out, though! Both the overcoats would see a lot of wear in Winter (I like a long overcoat with a suit, but when it comes to denim, a peacoat-length jacket really comes into its own). The MA1 is more a whimsical thing. I'm not honestly sure just quite how much wear I'd get out of it, but it's one of those things I want to give a shot. If it works well for me, I'd be interested in trying one of the green-liner options from Bronson, maybe an L2A as well. The MA1 is the last generation of the flight jacket in which I am interested.

Maybe an M51 field jacket.... I'm tempted by one on Soldier of Fortune that comes with Elvis' badging applied. Bit of fun. I need to check out whether they can be made a bit more flexible with the addition of a liner. I know they had one originally, but not sure what is available now that can be bought to fit them. I have a rusty memory an M65 liner will fit, there are just a mismatched number of buttons to buttonholes involved between the 51 and the 65.
