Wearing my own creation today… patterned after an old jacket that @ton312 gave me a couple years ago. I made some changes to the fit, added a few details, and built it from heavy waxed canvas since this is the first garment I’ve ever attempted. Got the fit dialed in and am ready to make one from a nice hide.

That's a fantastic looking jacket.

I'm not entirely sure what this means.

A little like BS, nonsense, no-way, etc.

Bates paired with a vintage Swedish leather vest.

That’s a nice Bates.

Of all the jackets I've seen you wear during the period that I've been paying attention, this is by far the most visually striking. I'd have never guessed that a white leather jacket could look so sharp. Were it mine I'd leave it exactly like it is as any stripes or patches would immediately limit pairing choices. Very nice.

Appreciate it man! No changes for now, other than a cleaning and conditioning in the near future to try to reduce the squeaking

Not my typical post here but the leaves were stunning and kinda matched the yellow from the label. Fall is really getting good in North Carolina!

@AerGuitar very nice work! I was goong to ask what the jacket was because it fit you so nicely and then I scrolled down and saw that you actually made it! Very impressive.

A couple more recent fits:
Dark brown jacket is a 40s Windward and the light brown is a late 40s Sportclad

beautiful creation, congrats on your first jacket, the material looks great, and the fit looks great on you, I doubt you need leather if canvas looks this good

All Wool for gathering around the fire. The wool jacket is from the 40s and no label. Chippewa Falls wool shirt.
