How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

[Downunder G Man]

Well this arrived today , Oxblood Fidelity café racer. Usual "vintage bouquet". Good order otherwise.

Currently it's in the top loader washing machine on a one wash 2 rinse low/zero spin cycle of 59 minutes.

Using Eucalyptus woolwash. My wife told me "get that outside" the minute I opened the box ! Should wash up OK.

A fair bit of red/purple colour in the first water dump !

Couple or more dry days shaping up so it will hang up outside in the shade after slow dripping in the bath overnight.

Then the routine with RM Williams leather treatment. I may re-oxblood with Shoe polish first , see how it washes up.

Seller original photo it arrived here in the dark ! Same photo posted earlier in this thread sorry

LOL. Thought it was a Fine Creek, "mismatched" panels and all. Couldn´t figure out why you of all people should deviate from your usual effortlessly great style, but then I found the reference to the jacket.

I think the mismatched grain on these panels looks cool! Not in the contrived FCL way, more in the “this is a mass produced utilitarian jacket, no ones gonna care about mismatched panels way”. More authentic.

This is my second attempt at a cafe racer style. The first one was a bit too big on me so I ended up giving it as a birthday present to my dad. This one should fit me better hopefully.

I just bought this Thedi buffalo cossack. Will be delivered next week. I'm so excited! View attachment 281634 View attachment 281635

That buffalo leather looks amazing. Those pocketflaps will make it more unique as well. Great pickup.

Padded JL inbound. Too good a deal to pass up.

Put down deposit for a 1947 Langlitz in medium cow. Lead time is stretching out to June 2021?!?!? But hopefully sooner

The guy on here who recently started the thread about Langlitz customer service ordered his Columbia in June and received it a couple of weeks ago, so his took about 5 months.

I ordered one at the beginning of September and I was told it'll be done by February unless covid restrictions are eased.

@Marc mndt Very good choice and can't wait to see fit pics!

I've just decided to change my original Thedi order from Peacoat to MTC-127920 design. @Marc mndt inspired me to choose the MTC-127920 over the Peacoat. After buying a Peacoat from brand Hannes Roether I got the feeling that a leather Peacoat is not the right jacket for me as Thedi's version is very long. I selected the handdyed tambonato brown deerskin and detachable natural shearling lining and collar for the MTC-127920. Shipping is expected to be before Christmas. Can't wait to see the result. After selling my The Flat Head Deerskin which I really liked apart from the the collar design and as I really like my Freewheelers Sunset deerskin, I decided that deerskin is the leather to go for my last leather jacket - my Aero Typ III suede rust goat is expected to arrive around beginning/middle of December Then I'm definitely done with leather jackets!

I think that might just be a wise decision. Thedi's leather peacoat does look great but I think it's a difficult style to pull off.
The crosszip is certainly going to look great on you. Can't wait to see the pics!

@Robbie79 your collection is superb!

Marc, what leather is your MTC-127920?. Looks really nice color.

I actually have the MTC-127915 which is a slightly different model. I like everything about Thedi's except their names Nobody remembers model numbers. Thurston Bros therefore calls this the 'Hector'. Anyway it's the Bruciato color Horsehide. You can read more about it in the following review:

Great choice! I really like deerskin, I had in mind of going for something similar with blue deer

Yes, I was also thinking about blue deerskin as my favorite colour is blue but then I thought that a brownish colour would look better in combination with this jacket (of course tastes are different)....also looking forward to your red Thedi

 

[handymike]

I vote olive!

 

[Colin G]

I really want to buy one of these Freewheelers Trackwalker coats. Someone talk me out of it.

@Colin G Quite nice, especially the backside but I would prefer the Journeyman
