What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Recently I went to Ulm Germany and visited noble_house because I have seen they are making a repro of a german 20's / 30's box / aviator / biker coat from Hilbert (old german leather manufacturer, no longer into production).

I have to say it's a very nice repro incl. lining and label. Years ago I had an original one but sadly it is fallen apart due it's age...

This looks like mine (from the 30s or so).

... and about as plentiful as teeth on a hen. A Blatt perfecto-style can be had even as we speak, but this d-pocket is the one to have, I think.

I think the Blatt Perfecto style jackets have levels to them. @jonbuilder has one that is end gamey. Nicest hide I have seen on a Blatt. The D pocket is the one I would want though.

Another tricky jacket to photograph under normal light. Simmons Bilt X Vanishing point natural.
