... and the snaps lined up? Wow. This jacket had your name on it from the beginning. Some things are meant to happen.

No, I had to add snaps to the collar so that they lined up with the snaps on the underside of the jackets collar. All in all about a 3 minute job!

Enough is enough I suppose with this one but I added a nice snap on collar from a cop jacket I had stuffed in a bin in my basement. A good case for not throwing stuff out. LOL. Worked out pretty good!

I’ll try not to badger the forum any further but there’s just no denying how much I love this jacket. Does everything it should absolutely perfectly.

Arggh....don’t try very hard.
Some of us live to be badgered by badassery!!

Yesterday 4 vets i called said they no longer do euthanacy as our country is regressing back into ultra religious dark age era probably post covid , finally the 5th aggreed so we rescheduled for today, she hasnt drink nor eat nor poo for 3 days other than licking treats and spent her time not moving under the sofa or under the bushes when I let the back door open, but today she was excited and fresh, so we drove slowly the traffic was super packed, we took our time but eventually we arrived.

So I guess she gifted me a chance to make better pictures, my nat cowhide is almost as brown as her coat now. I think it is a more proper goodbye pics

Went through the similar experience with my beautiful cat. They really are amazing little animals. FYI, your’s isn’t the only country going backwards into religious fanaticism. Too much power and money in the hands of lunatics!

It's always nice to see a jacket that is still in a collection being worn. Keep posting photos so we can see the evolution.

This isn't a "Show us a new jacket every day" post.

Out for a little Thanksgiving tootle while streets are empty. Decided to wear my Schott 623 horse hide today. What a beautiful afternoon!

I tried to look it up online with no success, do these fur collars just snap onto the existing collar snaps or does the jacket need to be designed to accept a snap on fur collar ?

That is a beautiful jacket by the way, and I'm certainly not tired of seeing it.

I had to do a bit of retro-fitting for this collar to fit. Nothing drastic, just added snaps to the fur collar so that they would connect to the underside of the jackets collar (which were already there).

Thanks for the info.
I will have to get the sizing figured out and try to find one that I can fit to my jacket.
A fur collar would really add to the usefulness of my Taylor's Chicago PD surplus jacket, I would wear it much more often.
Neck warmth is something I really value in a jacket.

They had these fur collars available on their site a year or two ago when I was looking for info on my jacket, but now the only options I can find are I think Vanson and Schott for $100+.

I think @photo2u was starting up a thread about making your own fur collars. And I think @Mysteryo recently built one and had a good write up on it. All the ones I don’t use have been passed on to other members, otherwise I would see if any worked for you. Furry collars add a lot to a jacket.

Vanson!

I don’t know if there are any Trucker jacket enthusiasts here, but this Kapital trucker is probably one of the most unique jackets I’ve had. The craftsmanship is amazing on this piece. Follows the first iteration of Type III to the letter and fit is on point! No hand warmer pockets, apparently they didn’t come along until the early 80’s View attachment 467324

Both of these are awesome!
