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

[HoosierDaddy]

From what a couple of owners are telling me I should order a size or two up from my regular size with this trim jacket. I will specify my desired sleeve and body length so it will be a custom order through Thurston Bros who will also advise more on size.

Nice!
The leather is super thick, looks like steer/cow to me, black on a white/grey hide.
Will weigh it when dry but it feels heavier than average, but not as heavy as my CW Chopper.
The one i got is pretty much the same as this one, but without the belt loops, which i really like.
It's interesting that they used regular pocket entries on this one, rather than the "top flaps only" seen on mine.
It seems not two are ever alike, and they almost never have size tags, i wonder if they were a custom shop? I really hope someone will have some info once i do a proper thread.

I started one a while back but didn't get anywhere:

Indeed, I've seen them now and again. They look like super high quality. I was very tempted by that one. The leather is super thick yeah? I like this one too:

Whatever happened to that one?

It's still available. Too small for me or you tho. If it were an inch or two wider I'd be all over it!

Thank you. I figured there was a reason I passed on it but could not recall if it was size or just failure to go for it. It does look nice.

Well. I'm a victim of myself and thanks a lot @Carlos840. When I messaged the seller to clarify the numbers I couldn't lay off

That jacket must weigh a ton!!!

 

[Carlos840]

That jacket must weigh a ton!!!

According to the seller mine is 2,7kg / 6lb, so not so bad.
It might even feel light compared to Tons steer Halfbelt.

I did get it! Carlos we can be the Black and Tan apparel annex brothers!

Man, even LW feels lightweight compared to that thing. I'm glad I've never handled such a jacket, though... I'd probably just sell off everything I have.

In terms of weight not really, the suburban is 2.61 kg and the J24 3.56 kg. I don't know why I didn't think of getting a fish scale earlier... such a good idea!

 

[ton312]

It's kind of like I just got rolled by the TFL effect and the diversity thread all in one nice little package.

Those Apparel Annex jackets look great!

First time I've heard the brand name but a quick look on etsy turns up a pretty gnarly CHP/trucker hybrid. Cool as hell.

 

[Carlos840]

That has @Monitor written all over it!
Even got a blue lining to match his Lewis Leathers.

As does this one...
