New Lost Worlds Leather Pea Coat

[dmdmorris]

It's been a busy week for me in terms of jackets.

I just received the Black Leather Pea Coat I ordered from Lost Worlds.

Its a size 38 and I believe if memory serves me correctly that it is a 3.5oz, definitely FQHH.

It feels great the leather is very smooth and supple.The fit is perfect IMO.

Lost Worlds was very easy to deal with.

Here are some pics:

This is it in terms of jackets for now, no more! (I am waiting for an A2 SAT from GW, but that's a year out)

Digging that collar. How will you decide between this and your Irvin. Both look as if they'll keep out the elements.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Best fit so far. LW looks good!
Double check sleeve length with JC on that SAT..and any excess tunneling will be left on the cutting table.

Congrats

Good question Sloan,

If its a business meeting or something more formal then the Pea Coat wins.

If its really brutally cold then the Irvin wins.

Otherwise it's whatever the mood dictates.

Thanks Hoosier, strange thing is the only measurements I gave Stuart were my height and weight! I don't know how he nailed it?

Errr the jackets fine... but never mind that lets talk about that Vintage Ampeg B-15 Fliptop to your right!

Worf, good eye. That's my son Jake's. He is 17 and has been playing the bass, both upright and electric for 5 years. He's into Jazz, Soul and RnB. Loves Miles, Ray Brown and Paul Chambers. He has studied with some pretty big bass players: Avery Sharpe among others. You can hear him at www.soundcloud.com/jakemorrismusician

dmdmorriis: Nice Peacoat. That will be my next purchase.

Word: I am more into the Fender tweeds. I have a 1956 tweed Bassman, a 1957 tweed Fender Champ, a tweed Pignose, an Orangecrush (British practice amp), and an old Gibson amp--maybe 1949? Probably a few more around somewhere. PC.

 

[dmdmorris]

Peacoat,

Those all sound great, but I have no idea what they sound like. I'm a drummer and after awhile you guys all sound the same. Lol.

 

[dmdmorris]

Although I hear the Orangecrush is nice. Your other gear sounds very vintage?

Dave, it looks fantastic! Enjoy it!

Brian,

Thanks

How tall would you say you are? The jacket looks like a perfect fit!

 

[dmdmorris]

Strokes,

I'm 5'7.5" tall and weigh about 135lbs
Those were the ONLY measurements that Lost Worlds required. I'm truly baffled at how they nailed the sizing with just those two measurements. When I asked Stuart if he wanted my other measurements he said no because they were probably not accurate as each tailor measures differently.

They make killer jacket's...your boy will have himself a great jacket someday,enjoy it!!!

 

[strokes1251]

Wow really? That's a perfect fit in terms of length. Im about 5'8 5'9ish what is the length on the sleeves and from the back to the bottom?

 

[KY Gentleman]

That's a great looking jacket. I really like the collar, too.

 

[winterland1]

Very nice. That's a lot of leather.

 

[SpeedRcrX]

A truly beautiful peacoat again!

Congratulation, enjoy wearing it!

It fits ok and nice jacket, but for my money unless you're a six foot four ex-KGB goon, they never quite fit right. These kinds of jackets are sartorial overstatement.
