Yes sir, you are 100% correct! so far I'm super happy with them :)

@Al_Mascarpone Wow, what a stunner of a jacket!(and same leather as I went with from Thedi, how are you liking the buffalo if I could ask? :) )

Cheers!

Thank you! I really like the buffalo, I think it strikes a fine balance between the hardness of horsehide and the pliability of something softer such as sheep leather. The smell is amazing and the grain too. I did ask for brown with red undertones, I think Theo nailed it. It looks darker in reality compared to the photo. The only negative would be that sometimes when bending the arms, it is a bit squeaky but nothing too much.

Yes, Theodoros nailed it. Great jacket and a perfect fit!

You're slowly selling me this jacket. If it had a [non-faux] mouton collar option, I might had pulled the trigger already.

Haha, yes, that’s what it does.

Honestly, I wouldn’t have ordered just from the pictures on the website/Instagram. It was our dear friends on TFL who sold it to me too.

Anyway, glad I have it. It’s a stunner of a jacket and so very easy wearing.

Thanks for the information! :D

Driving home after Christmas…

Brief visit to the parts of the family that didn’t spend the time with us.
First sighting of the sun in weeks.

Thanks Tom! :D hope you and the family is having a wonderful Christmas!

Also, that Schott is just getting better each time you post it(just look at that leather in the sun!)! They sure hit a home-run with this model :D

Cheers!

Merry Xmas everyone!
Today it was time for a looong dog walk and I decided to dig out the French blanket vest by the Brut Archives that I bought during the pandemic but never really wore since I’m not the biggest fan of its curry yellowish bomber jacket collar. A bit of a strange combo together with a vintage RL denim A2 underneath but it somehow worked out fine and I have to admit that the vest is great with the teddy collar from the jacket. Time for me to rework the vest by adding a teddy collar! ;)
