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

It’s funny, I never wanted a shearling jacket or coat but I now get the appeal. The box it came in weighed 8lbs! Definitely a “one and done” style. Feels like something an Eskimo made by hand to hunt polar bears.
Not sure how many opportunities I’ll have to wear it. But when I can I will!

View attachment 678032 Hard to capture but it’s a really cool muted gray, faded brown.

I think it's really cool. I thought it's cold enough in Chicago in the winter that you can wear something like this a lot? Maybe I'm too cold, I can often wear my shearlings from November to March. Anything below 5 Celsius is fine. Ok, maybe a coat like this under 0

I just scored this grey Shaefer outfitters vest of Ebay for $40, 100% wool HBT.

I've never had anything in Herringbone before so I don't really know what to expect, but from my experience Shaefer makes pretty good stuff and unlike some companies they fit true to size.

This guy showed up yesterday. Kit Karson looks to be very early 50s, still of the 40s era quality in my opinion. Punk as hell red wool lining, original stud work.
