Just got my old red-russet 1401 back up with some stitches to the left pocket and the installation of an old sweatshirt waistband inside the knit. (The bottom tabs where the zipper anchors flared out and gave a "codpiece effect" when seen from the side. Now it's much less noticeable.)

It's a little snug around the middle, but a few days wet-n-stuff should remedy that. Then all it will need is grommets to reinstall the left collar hook.

Gonna have to to get it stretched out to my size. :D Fits nicely with 1 layer under it, but that doesn't cut it in February.

I finally put in the collar hook 1930s style - opened up the stand at the corner, sewed it to the inside, then closed up the stand around it.
