Good Wear Hercules in Black Shinki

That's quite interesting. Is it JC's design or your own? I may want one too!
It is taken from an original Hercules jacket even earlier than this one, another grail chasing adventure for me. I only ever ask John for historically based designs. I’ll keep it under wraps for now as I’m still waiting my turn. Damn though, @El Marro’s jacket re-kindles the desire for one of these beauties.

When you talk to John you might mention that if he needs to make a test jacket for your new pattern that i would be happy to buy it. He knows my size...same as his.

Man, I keep coming back to this post because I just adore this jacket. The fit looks great and its making me want this or an imperial. @handymike Thanks for the distinction between the three jackets, as I wasn't too sure what the differences were. I don't usually like zip jackets and prefer button ups, but I could see myself getting something like this. Cheers!
Thanks @powerserge!
I have experienced this feeling many times myself here on the lounge and more than once that led me to purchase a jacket that I hadn’t even thought about previously.

Your Hercules with buttons sounds quite intriguing. To be honest this is an area that I should look into more myself as I have only one leather jacket with buttons and I never wear it. Hmmmmm.....
