I could completely agree with you and worry that’s the plan. You see when I ordered from Greg it was a 12-13 month wait back in February 2022, mine took longer but that’s because there were other things involved like me sending in zippers (note the original 2950’s crown #10 and moleskin(mostly that he had never made these jackets and were completely different than his normal pattern). There are plenty of modified Manhattans with rearranging of pockets but this one he wanted to do when he fell completely confident but he kept me informed the whole time.I must confess, @Damon141 that I was a little disappointed when I saw your "Damon" in the background of a WIP of Field making a cafe racer (because I was like "Another one?!" but this is fantastic). Maybe a half-belt next time though? Haha.
Great work! I'm really anxious for mine! Hopefully I'll have my mock jacket soon. I'll post here to gather feedback on it
@Marc mndt you have done impeccable preparatory work, the new "amsterdam" from FL is excellent. Thanks to you and other people in this forum who selflessly share their knowledge, many others* can only benefit, bravo.@Kenan we need pics of your new FL jacket.

I would be proud if a manufacturer named one of their models after my idea. You really did great preparatory work with the "new Amsterdam", Greg "just" had to implement it, lolThanks bud.
Greg named his Buco J-24 repro the 'Manhattan'.
Manhattan was formerly named 'New Amsterdam' before the English bought it from the Dutch back in the 17th century. So I thought 'New Amsterdam' would be a fun name for the Leathertogs repro. Plus me being from Amsterdam of course .
He with the help of @Marc mndt , lolHe really did!
Yeah I’m very grateful Marc is so particular with his custom jackets. Really provided me with an awesome jacket! Thanks again @Marc mndtHe with the help of @Marc mndt , lol
