Most my bells are naval
Issue and came from that same shop, around 2006. I think I picked up 10 pair then for around $40 for the lot. Quite a testament to how well that stuff is built. I don’t wear jeans that often but that’s still a good run.

I beg to differ... there's a reason why leather jackets and engineer boots were put together in the first place: form follows function.
The two are a match made in heaven and have been a classic look for almost 100 years.

What a beast! I that don’t keep you toasty- nothing will!
It definitely does! This morning it was 11°F (1°F windchill). My B3 did great layered with a hoodie. My dog made it 1/2 way down the block when he turned around and walked us home.

When I bought this jacket back in 2019 I never even heard about Buco nor did I know what a D-pocket was. I also didn't realize how good it actually is. Nice shoulder slope, perfect taper to the hem. Like it was custom made for me.

Got a delivery in the mail today that I'm trying out.
Pioneer wear suede/ rough out vest ( I believe 70's ), and a 70's penny's big mac wool jacket.
I really love the vest, the look the cut and the size are great.
The big mac was a great deal as was the vest ( the vest even more so ) but I'm much less impressed because it's very thin and lightweight.
The fit is great at least and the quality seems pretty good all things considered, it's just thin so I'll have to find the right situation to wear it.

The pioneer wear vest is amazing, congrats. Perfect fit too. Pioneer made high quality jackets, the suede on them is very substantial.

I'm so glad I took the $16+ shipping gamble on it.
Right away when I unboxed it I could just tell it was high quality, the thickness and the very nice lining instantly gave that impression.
There's something about the snaps too, I don't know why but they just seem very high quality when they snap together.
Some snaps can have a bit of a rattley hollow feeling, but these just feel solid.

Damn that's a gorgeous suede jacket.
Now I'm going to have to try and find one, I didn't know what I wanted in a suede jacket but now I do.

If you a 38 then you are in luck - check eBay.

I just saw that one and almost jumped the gun with an offer , but realized there's no hand pockets and had to stop myself. ( I'm a 36, but based on the measurements I could do this 38 )
It's such a badass looking jacket that I'd love to have, but I know from trying to wear the OG-108 field shirt as a light jacket that I'd constantly find myself trying to put my hands in the nonexistent pockets.

I’d be like that without front pockets in my jeans. Anyway, it’s been listed for a while and the seller is very open to offers if you change your mind. I think you could probably get it for $100 shipped. Not really my style, but I’m still tempted because it’s cool and a great deal.

What size are you? Any weird quirks? Been looking at ordering one of these.

It's such a cool jacket I decided to throw in an offer and see what happens.
If I end up getting it I can find a way to get used to the lack of hand pockets.
