My new aero mulligan

[simonc]

Good Fanch, it looks great. I see a lot of potential in that shape on you, great work jacket, good idea. Only thing I'd do is get it in a hot shower and screw it up into a ball and break up that patina.

A beauty, Fanch. I have a black FQHH Maxwell (with which I am very happy) but your new jacket has got me thinking – inevitably – how superb a Mulligan like yours would look in cordovan FQHH. SJ

Great jacket! Unfortunate name though.....

Thanks SJ. A Mulligan in cordovan FQHH would definitely not be too much duplication over a black FQHH Maxwell, very much like a seal jerky MWHH Mulligan would not be too much duplication over a black or cordovan FQHH Maxwell.

Better than being called the Gilligan...

Or something else from the Urban Dictionary, like 'Rusty Trombone', or 'Steaming Carl' lol

Those golfers. Mulligan, something akin to the red haired step child of the "foot mashie?"

I suspect this is something to which only fellow jacket junkies would nod their heads. SJ

I concur (and then book myself in for therapy...) Is there jacket rehab?

You need Jackets Anonymous aka "Jakies"

It's called psychosurgery, where you call your jacket maker with instructions to cut you a pattern for your next jacket.

Fanch, I guess there are few people in the world who opt for Mulligan. Mine is on its way, after 2 month wait time, 2 week production. My only concern is that it could be a bit snug. My chest is 44" and I ordered 46 with additional length to the body and customized sleeves. You mentioned three Aero jackets, Fanch. How do you handle that? I mean I ordered two Aero jackets (the second one is Long Half Belt, which is still in production) and I already have one leather jacket which I love so much that I want to wear it every day but soon I'm gonna have three. They are for different weather conditions but still can interchange each other so every day it's gonna be a choice which one to chose?

 

[Roma]

Sir Jacket, that was exactly my choice: Mulligan in Cordovan

 

[Fanch]

Roma, my chest is ~42" and ordered a size 42 Mulligan which seems to fit me well. I also added an inch to body and sleeves. Be sure to post pics on arrival.

That's the funniest post I've read on this site in weeks, and hardly anyone outside of the Central Belt will get it...

 

[Roma]

Yes Fanch, I noticed that your size and chest are the same. That what they at Aero advised me doing: choose same size as my chest is but I preferred some room Will definitely share pics on arrival. My LHB is 44 as the chest since it's more roomy.

Witty, indeed.

Excuse me, pal, can you do us a favor?

In these parts, a jakie is a slang for alcoholic down and out. Apt, given that's where the jacket habit will eventually drive most of us...

Here, "in the gutter." Possibly on the horizon.
