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

I've seen this seller and always wondered about the darker pocket cover. These look like NOS stock for sure. Did you end up getting a 184SML? They are longer in the body and the sleeve. Was the leather uniform and perfect? Were the brass snaps corroded at all? Did the faux collar's number (four digits) match the jacket's number?
I will receive it next week and see the condition. It is a 184SM regular length, this one is 26” in the body and the new ones on Schott are listed as 27”. Hopefully it fits.

For you, I'd always try and get a "LONG", and you'd probably like the fit better. I'm actually just guessing from your earlier comments.

Wasn't looking to buy, but this black Hercules A2 came along. Very nice steerhide by Appalachian Tanned and Tailored. Could replace my Buzz Rickson black A2.

I've just ordered a waxed cotton jacket. Traditional Trialmaster style, you know the drill. But not a Belstaff.

As you may remember, I've always erred towards waxed cotton rather than leather, even though you're probably thinking "who is this bloke again?" because I haven't posted for ages because I haven't worn a jacket at all since about May.

Nevertheless, as a Brit who rumbles about on an old Triumph Bonneville, waxed cotton has always appealed.

So I've just ordered this -

I think it might be quite nice, but I'll let you know, obv.

And if it is nice, I've got a plan...

This arrived yesterday and it's absolutely terrific. It deserves its own thread I think, so that's what I'm going to do.
