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

[ton312]

Dude, you should charge a consultant fee, the two models you have designed are the two best models they have!
They are also the only two models they sell that look like they were shaped on a human body rather than on a giant square.

I am excited for this 5 star(cadia). As with all these though I’m also a bit nervous. I can’t wrap my head around the color as the shots on FB and his site look nothing like the ones he sent me. Hopefully the damn thing gets delivered today!

Man, I saw that one yesterday and thought it must be yours. His pics look great! Looking forward to hear your opinion on it if DHL ever deliver it to you. Have they managed to ship it back to Germany again? Lol

Depending on @ton312’s outcome, I might order a re-make of this:

The Berman's came. On my way down to the pub to **** some heads.

My second Schott 602 police jacket in two weeks. I mistakenly bought a 42 Long the first time and now this 42 regular should do the trick. Overpaid on this one but I really like the style. Plus it still has a NJ police badges on the shoulder! Probably a good idea to remove before I get charged with impersonating...

I sold off the Apparel Annex trucker to a lounger a few months back and I’ve been looking to fill in the gap it left. Won this on eBay today, fingers crossed for safe transit across the Atlantic and perfect fit on arrival. Tag size 42 but the measurements look to fit more like 40.

It’s in natural Vicenza. Really interested to see it age over time with some use and abuse, I haven’t seen many examples of this hide on the lounge (or elsewhere). This https://www.instagram.com/p/B1jh79nHZOY/?igshid=1ccep8ww27vl1 is one I found after seeing the Instagram repost by Carrie in the Thurston thread. There are also a bunch of pics of the Mister Freedom natural campus jacket out there which I’ve scoped out.

Also looks like it was made by Greg Fields during his tenure at Aero. By all accounts his work is stellar. All in all I’m pretty excited about the pickup.

Six days and still waiting for a reply to three very polite emails to S-B about the ill-fitting jacket I received. Waiting on a response is way harder than waiting on a new jacket.

Any word back yet?

 

[Pandemic]

Any word back yet?

I’m shipping it back today for a refund. It’s a beautiful jacket and the price was good, just a pity it didn’t work out for me.

That looks stunning. Is there any way you could mask or cover the patch without removing it, I wonder? Even taking a blue sharpie to the lettering and symbol might work.

Sweet schott shinki!

Yes! It kinda made me doubt it’s Vicenza. Really curious to see it in person.

Well good news there. You have anything in particular in mind to replace it?

Thanks. Right now, I'm thinking about commissioning Greg Field to make something fairly similar for me, but in brown pigment Shinki.

Based off the results we’ve seen here, you can bet he’ll nail the fit! If Shinki isn’t a must and you’re going custom, don’t forget about Johnson Leathers! I had an absolutely fantastic experience with them. (I’m sure others will have their recs too).

It is a lot of fun working with Johnson leather, I can only highly recommend them.

Scroll down a bit and you can see this beaut that @Jin431 just got in from JL. Nice thing is they can take it up a bit if it’s too long or whatever else doesn’t work out.
