Pronounced 'shmutter', btw.

Oy vay!

Hey, @Sloan1874 - need to see at least one wear pic before Xmas!!!

Ewwww, something in common with "The Donald".

Didn't know you were Jewish, Sloan. No Chrissie, then? My other Jewish friends have just gone camping for a week.

 

[Sloan1874]

No, not Jewish, but it's a common expression used among London tailors back in the day - a lot of whom were Jewish - and it abides to this day. I love it because it conveys a certain hip/mod appreciation and enthusiasm for clothing and style.

Look, I may have stepped into Mexico for a couple of hours last month, but that's as far as it goes.

I grew up in New Jersey where the greater New York Jewish community injected a great many words into the common regional lexicon. There are just some words that sound better in Yiddish

Deacon, where'd you grow up? I'm originally from "The garden spot of the Garden State" -- Elizabeth (home of Schott and Standard Oil!).

I'll take some tomorrow, it's a good comparison - one of the things I'm particularly fond of with the ANJ is the extra length it has.

Please don't put this on the back burner. I like the stylish look of the Irvin and getting one is definitely on the bucket list.. but my reservation is that the backside may not be long enough to protect my... err, backside. Looking forward to comments and pics from a man who owns both.

 

[Sloan1874]

I'll be back in Glasgow tomorrow, so I'll do them then.

Nice! I was born in Perth Amboy and grew up in Woodbridge and later Old Bridge.

My wife and I were married, relatively recently, a little north of New Hope, PA in the one inn in which Washington famously did not sleep...at the time, it was owned by staunch Tories!

The Black Bass Inn?

Very close to my home, a favorite of my wife and I for dinner. Terrific that they retain the British theme and it's a beautiful location.

(And congratulations @Deacon211, such a perfect wedding spot)

Right, as promised, some fit pics. I've given up on trying to get decent light as it's obviously not going to happen:

For comparison, my Irvin:

I can only see one single picture but nice fit! It will keep you very warm in the winter.

 

[Sloan1874]

Try refreshing your browser. I've had a second go at posting the pics.

 

[handymike]

Wow!

 

[Carlos840]

That's a great fit, i much prefer the sleeve length of your ANJ 4!

Do you get weather that permits the wearing of such beasts? I am starting to think that climat warming will soon make sheepskin jackets a thing of the past!
