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

[El Marro]

I've owned three of the Iconic Hercules reproductions and did not like the fit of any of them. I have commented on this before.

It is an odd pattern isn’t it? I have four GW jackets made for me and the Hercules is the least comfortable of the bunch.
The way the arms connect to the body causes an odd pulling sensation and tightness across the back when I raise my arms. John warned me of this when we were discussing the project but I really wanted one anyway.
And I did have him raise the side adjusters to the belt line, much more useful that way in my opinion.

Just got this really cool vest but it's too big... Shame I gotta sell it, really love it!

Vests are very easily altered.

Remove the panels on the side or make them narrower and it will fit you. Only have to find the right person to do it.

True but the French seams are so neatly done that I don't trust anyone local to do the proper job and it's just too big everywhere for me. I'm never having any luck with leather vests. . .

That vest looks really well made, every single seam is a French seam.

This looks great!! Did they move the adjustment belts up to the Halfbelt on this one? That’s where they should be imo. Love the contrast with the buttons!

Wanted to share a sneak peek with you guys. It’s one of the nicest put together Aeros I’ve yet owned. Too hot to wear currently here but it’s a knock out.

If this ain’t one of the symptoms of TFL insanity I don’t know what is. But it’s close to 30 Celsius and I just bought a vintage Swedish military coat with shearling lining.

I wish those were warm enough for my winter walkabouts! Such class.

These are the best!

How cold does it get where you are that a shearling lined coat doesn’t cut it?

These are the best!

I am really looking forward to testing it out this winter!

Minus 30s without the wind chill. Being carless makes warm wear critical for me, especially since I run cold.

Damn that is cold. Okay I get it now.

32 Celsius today here, 35 tomorrow & for the rest of the week. This summer shall pass, too. Hopefully.

These might turn out to be the heaviest pants I'll have and the competition is already serious but we'll see. But anyway, I needed a pair in brown.

They really do! I can't wait to see them.

Most amazing leather pants come from either Germany or Austria! Must be Lederhosen legacy. XD

Those will be great protection, looks like shoe leather at the bottom.

Willhaben! I randomly stumbled upon them while going thru the entire leather trousers selection and figured I'd risk 100 Euros since the photos weren't very good. Glad I did. Leather looks suspiciously like CXL. Seller described them as "greasy".

Yep, leather indeed looks work-boot standard! Not that I need it as I don't ride but it's still something I appreciate.

Really curious to hear your thoughts when you get them!!
