Eastman Rough Wear 27752

I’ve been wanting to scratch the Eastman itch for a while so pulled the trigger on this Rough Wear 27752 contract.

Absolutely stunning jacket but my one sticking point is the collar…I knew it was going to be a large collar but wasn’t expecting it to be like this.

Anyway the fit is pretty good, 44R I’ve also ordered an Eastman Star contract to try this against as it’s a tad longer in the arms and back so could be a good option. Will update in a few weeks once it’s been made and I can compare the two.

Very nice!

I love the horsehide Eastman uses. Not the most heavyweight but so nice and subtle!

As to the collar; yeah, they are like this. It will look better with wear. You may leave it buttoned for a while to help find its natural ciurve.

Can´t do better than Eastman for an A2 (as much as I love my RMC)!

Yes the horsehide is absolutely amazing. So much lighter and nicer to wear than my Aero.

I’ve got a Star contract on order as this was my other option, should’ve just ordered them both at the same time to begin with.

After trying the RW on again today I am very close to just cancelling my order for the Star contract and going with this. I know I should probably wait to compare the two but having the jacket sitting in a box in the house is too tempting.
