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

I wouldn't say that she has a passion for it, but she certainly likes to wear nice jackets and we do have the same taste.

Every time she wines that my jackets take up too much space I remind her of all the nice jackets I bought for her, which usually settles the discussion. It's a win-win situation

This is what I bought her up to now

That's a good strategy @Marc mndt Has she got a favourite?

 

[Riu]

I'm waiting for this to arrive soon, I really hope I got the measurements right since I wanted it a bit on a shorter side.

I'd go for a "Shawn purple"

Although I like that blue of yours!

That's a good question. I don't think she has one. They all seem to get an equal amount of wears.

Is there a favorite in your collection? Looking at my current collection, I think I have at least 10 favorites hehe.

I personally like this one out of her collection. With your collection, I'm not surprised you've got so many favourites. It's hard to pick amongst those. I like your canvas jackets, both Thedi and the trucker. I need to get a nice canvas jacket.

I couldn't say I have a collection really, just a few jackets and probably the CR is the best so far. Shame on those Aero's that didn't fit me as I wanted. If the BR wouldn't have been too tight around the chest, would have been my favourite definitely.

Not a jacket but my first high quality leather wallet by Thedi (dark brown cowhide) and my second Thedi belt (natural tan cowhide). I ordered without chain as I don't need a chain - I decided to skip/postpone my Thedi jacket order for now as wallet + belt are more "urgent"

Barbour Bromar water proof long jacket/short coat

cool belt, already has cool characters which is longer to get with normal wearing, the wallet looks cool from the start but is not really designed for cards management there, personally I think it takes away some "fun" watching your wallet taking shape from blank crisp new to curved shape, just me though.

Your girlfriend has great taste!! As do you.

My wife also yells at me that I take up too much of the closets (fair point) and that I live on a tropical island and can't even wear the jackets unless I travel (also fair point).

Unfortunately, I decided to ignore her wrath as I'm now in the doghouse as in a moment of weakness prodded by a Carrie instagram post, I caved and ordered this.

I love field jackets so I'm pretty pumped to have this one coming into the collection. Based on the dimensions, it should be a nice fit.

I haven't even been around the forum for a few months, but here I go and order a jacket my first few days back. She had me at Thedi. She had me at Thedi....

Oh, I also have my Field Leathers jacket soon to be finished too. More doghouse points for me lol.

Leather jackets on a tropical island is definitely the way to go!

Curious to see fit pics & your review of the Thedi Field Jacket. Good length, good amount of pockets. Not sure I like the wrist adjustments bands (I tend to often catch those on things), but I suppose that could be customized-out in my own case.

I’ll be sure to post pics and a review when I have it in possession. I will be back in the states tomorrow for a couple of weeks (NJ and a short trip to New England).

Welcome back and you didn't waste your time adding to your great collection. Can't wait to see your new jackets soon

Thanks! Looking forward to sharing them.

Saw this last night on Buyee, and found I couldn't say no. Here's hoping it actually fits!
