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

Man, Stuart is on fire, it took 2 hours and 4 emails on a Sunday morning to get everything sorted out.
Pending payment this beast could be mine!

Good choice. I normally wear a 40 but Stuart recommended a 42. Standard length fit me perfectly but I’m also 5’9 165.

The photo you posted was the photo I sent to Stuart as the reference for the jacket I wanted. Came out perfectly though the zippers were not inexpensive. :)

Tell me about it, these zippers cost more than what i spent on my used Aero Grizzly or Vansons!
I had no idea this was a thing! Zippers?

Honestly, blame Stuart, he was much quicker than i expected!
I sent an email thinking "This is Sunday morning, i might get an answer by the end of next week"
Booom, 2 hours later i have a filled in order form... WHAT HAVE I DONE?

I agree, almost instantaneous, even on Sunday. When I fell into the same trap as Carlos. Thought I would have time to let it marinate, nope. Stu was there immediately with the order form lol.


I actually really appreciated that respond speed when I was all fired up about navy horsehide :)
Speaking of which, saw it and it's an even better shade than I thought... The leathertogs will be a worthwhile rival to the J24!!!

My next one from LW is either the Leathertogs or the Cow grizzly.

Really fun to read... I was hesitating between both before placing that last order :)

Do let us know which way it goes... I will most likely end up with a cow panel grizzly as well at a later stage. Only question is which colour

Edit: fun rather than funny to read... I am tired

Probably go with the Leathertogs first and save the Grizzly for when I am able to move north. The black cow hair looks elegant to me for some reason. Need to sell some jackets before I do either though. Just not sure which to sell.

As it does to me... hence why I know I will get it at some point.
Which hide & colour for the leathertogs?

I really like the black HH over the russet but I plan to speak to Stuart about options at that point. The black 4oz on my CHP is awesome so I will probably stick to that.

I was thinking either black or navy with black panels. Might go all black for an elegant look, we'll see

I was also surprised at the LW Navy. My sample is darker and nicer than previous photos appeared.

Bested? Not yet... but maybe in process? That was a month ago or so

I found the russet hide to be a bigger challenge than the black one (I only have one of each)
