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

I came across this old straight zip CHP and had to grab it. Very heavy weight with a huge collar that reminds me of old hunting jackets.

The leather was pretty dirty / dry. I gave it a thorough wipe down and applied a little conditioner which immediately brought it back to life.

This one just got thrown on my porch. Hideout leathers of California. Pretty cool stitch work and pleats. Very small size 44” but I can wear it to smuggle the goods through Juarez as I’m sure the original owner must have.

I do wish the collar was larger and hit my shoulders. Liner is sagging in the left sleeve and in the back. Will tend to that this weekend.

Talking with Aero about having their recently retired "Wilderness" jacket made as a one-off in cordovan CXL steer. I don't know what the reasoning is for why they discontinue certain models, but they took down a handful of really nice (in my opinion) styles after that last sale in August.

Yeah, the western shirt disappeared, but they agreed to make me one anyway. Arrived today :)

LOL. I’m going to need to grow my beard back. Big time.

I could probably go shirtless in -100 artic polar nut freeze and be unfazed.
Tony youre evolving backwards! You started with tanned and finished leathers that take time and are highly crafted. Now youre clearly taking down animals by hand and just wearing the hide right away. You somehow pull off every look though, I wish I had the chutzpah to wear this.

Dont even get me started on the 5am dog turd runs haha. We both live in snowy windy places, I am over it. Though maybe Id feel differently if I had that mammoth to wear.
