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

[sweetfights]

This is shipping from NYC today or tomorrow:

This is on it's way from France:

And i just finished installing a new rail in my bathroom to make some room.
My couch is once again free of jackets, but these two new ones won't have anywhere to live when they arrive.

After this i am done, the only thing i can still see myself wanting is a Peter's aviator jacket (Freewheelers San Mateo) and a Langlitz Death's head Cascade, and maybe a Cal leather... Oh, and i did really like that idea of a cordovan and black fur grizzly...

Langlitz Death's head Cascade - legendary

Has anyone of you ever had a jacket from the brand „Thiga“? It was founded in 2009 in Germany aiming to produce “high-Quality” leather jackets at an affordable price (around 500€). Of course it is not comparable with the jackets we are usually taking about. It’s target audience for sure comes more from the fashion scene. However, some styles look very interesting (even if I am generally not a fan of pre-distressed jackets) and also feature attributes like single piece back...

Handled a few, didn't like the leather and by that I don't mean only the thickness and flimsiness, but also the feeling of its touch. Very sanded down leather with a plastic feeling and drape to it. They are not worse than other fashion brands you find at these stores, but for 500€ I'd rather get a used Schott if I wanted something more fashionable (fashionable as in being more subtle/blending in easier with 2k19 clothing of myself and my environment than a Vanson or Aero.)

This is how Thedi's grey buffalo look like and as HoosierDaddy said it looks more grey than black-grey

Damn that is nice.... Heavy Langlitz influence......

Looking forward to seeing Dav's black fleece Aero!

I didn't know LVC did a forest green mackinaw (I have the charcoal/brown and there's the red/black) but so happy! Fits me a lot better too:

Very nice. But won't you die in that in Barcelona??

Not really, during winter is fine the problem is that winter lasts maybe a month? It's like 15ºC during the day with the sun just melting you out in the streets. Mornings at around 7-8ºC which is not cold at all... I don't get how you guys wear flannel for so long, I was wearing summer weight denim today and a chambray shirt, just a very thin wool plaid short jacket worn open and walking back home I was sweating.

I plan to wear it over a shirt or waistcoat only, not over a suit. The other one I have I could layer but even in London it was too warm back in December. Freaking public transport and buildings are overheated...

Well, I already was weak and broke one of my resolutions...

Does this mean that two of Chicago’s finest will be sporting matching N-1’s?

 

[Bfd70]

Now all of a sudden I feel like a henchman in the old Batman series (matching and all). It’s a big town but perhaps alternating days would be appropriate.

 

[ton312]

It’s not matching...we are a squadron. We’ll sink your battleship, and steal your tacos. N1 Bros for LIFE.

 

[barnabus]

On a thoughtless whim, an Excelled perfecto style -

 

[Dav]

Just thought I'd pop this in here while I'm waiting

Not sure how accurate the colours are as this is lifted straight from my TV, looks damn fine to me though.

Saw the pic and it looks great! How is it warmth-wise? What temps do you think you could wear down to?

It’s super toasty. The alpaca is fat. I’d say it would be fine for just about anything other than -50. Yesterday in the teens with wind and I was snug as a bug in a rug with just a T-shirt underneath. Easily can navigate a “typical” Midwest winter.

Those sound like perfect Summer temperatures to me

Thanks a bunch.

Just scored this off ebay. Coming to Australia from the UK. I am unfamiliar with the maker or brand and wonder if anyone here can shed any light ? Looks very "Highwayman" to me. Going by the rather obvious clues probably "sheep" leather ?

 

[SimonR]

The TFL effect has started .....

Just received a Buzz N1 jacket and then thought I needed something lighter weight ... so a black A1 ... both off the classifieds on here ............

Sigh

I'm not familiar with the brand, but if it is British in origin, there's a fair likelihood that it's sheep. Sheep was the norm for a lot of British jackets going back, even bike jackets like Lewis in their early 60s heyday.
