    When I ordered on his website in July a full payment was charged.

    Nice jackets. Brown pony looks sharp. That said shoulders are way too narrow at ~17" as I need 18.5"

    Goodwear Modoc - My Precious!

    I still love the jacket. Honestly there is no reason to sell. Such a jacket you keep in the family and one day you may give it to your son. Perhaps you could reach out to John as ask him to make you a trimmer version like mine?

    1940s Sportclad Horsehide Half-Belt-Tea Core to the Core-42/44

    Interesting Jacket. Will not fit me though. Perhaps you could sell it to JC so that he can make me one in my size.

    Full custom Field Leathers Idaho review

    I just did a stitch count on my new Goodwear modoc and it is consistently at about 10 as measured around pockets and front vertical seams.

    Goodwear Modoc - My Precious!

    Honestly nothing compares. Hence, I hope that JC hires help (to gather customer specs, order supplies, keep track of schedule, assure proper fit through trial jackets, etc.) so that customers like you don't have to wait 6 years and give up.

    Me too! Your jacket details and the fit were inspirations for mine.

    Goodwear Modoc - My Precious!

    That’s the way to test a jacket for John. He makes a sample jacket the first time around or when he makes changes and wants to test them out himself as he wears the size 44. I think he is a perfectionist and likes to test the fit to make sure it works for customers too. No surprise that with his...

    Goodwear Modoc - My Precious!

    Agree that it looks good on more body types and that’s why I went with it. Ventura is more restrictive/selective. Fit pics coming soon.

    Goodwear Modoc - My Precious!

    About 2.5 years from the initial engagement. We discussed it in more detail in June of 2020 and he promised to deliver a jacket in the next 6-7 months, which he did.

    Goodwear Modoc - My Precious!

    John made me a Modoc in size 40. A zipper is nos double slider crown #7. The hide is Shinki light russet, which is quite darker than older batches (too much sake during Covid?). The lining is nos english rayon. What can I say, the jacket is spectacular. I have a Brunello Cucinelli leather...

    Greg Field vs Himel vs Freewheeler vs Goodwear SHINKI

    Himel's and goodwear's Shinki looks the best to me. I really like the Shinki's color on your Goodwear Imperial. Really unique. The fit of the brown Frobisher is the best. Really great custom fit. That said you like your sleeves a bit longer than I do. I like Canuck's design on you. I think it...

    Good Wear Hercules in Black Shinki

    That's quite interesting. Is it JC's design or your own? I may want one too!

    Field Leathers

    Atelier savas does for the mtm leather jackets. I wish Goodwear offer it too. That said jc’s jackets are 1k+ less than Atelier Savas and I think better looking. However, although very nice the jacket he made for me while back was a bit large in the chest but that’s when Vicki still handled...

    Field Leathers

    When it is a video call during a fitting when the canvass jacket is adjusted and all the details are discussed then you will more likely get what you wanted.

    Field Leathers

    I see. From my perspective videos would be good. Himel is using them effectively. Updating the website in an age of social media wouldn’t be my first priority though.
