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

[AbbaDatDeHat]

The leather God threw me a bone and let me have this one, after 9 out of 10 jackets were sniped from me just this month.
I've also been looking for this leather "shirt" for a long time. The real vintage are hard to come by in a nice condition and size I wanted. The Taobao copy is too sheepy. The Japanese repro is too pricey. This lightly used Vanson hits the spot just right. Hard to see in the small photo but I believe those zip sleeves are the nice Leathertog styles. Now just waiting for EMS.

I've also got a wool half belt coming from Aero. Been wanting a wool HB for a while. It's a good week.

You’ll love this shirt. It feels like nothing you’ve ever worn.

Man. He did it. @regius built me an absolute masterpiece. A full review upon arrival. Needless to say, I’m stoked. This man is one to watch.

Didn’t really need it but couldn’t pass it up either.

Interesting, looks like it was inspired by the Appalachian.

Yes it does indeed. I believe Terry has a similar one that’s a Sears

I had a vertical zip map pocket Appalachian as well but traded it off awhile back for a 40s double breasted suit

I just received a Flat Head Single Rider’s jacket from Rivet and Hide. Will post pictures soon

Walter Dyer. I believe this was never/very seldom worn!!! 7.5lbs, all Talon hardware, all pockets leather lined. Fit is probably amongst the best I’ve ever had. I’m stunned! Little collar training first but you’ll be seeing lots of this jacket.

Yes please

 

[ton312]

Yes please

I gotta say, this is one of the nicest jackets I’ve had in a good long while! I’m laughing about it. And also thinking my luck can’t last much longer. I’ve pushed it pretty far.

Beautiful! It's so cool how WD used different type of leather for specific styles.

Totally!! This is double thick 1969 Bates hide 100%. It’s not as thick as your crosszip, it’s stiffer, painted. WD doesn’t f around.

Hooray for Walter Dyer!

Love the jacket. I almost pulled the trigger on that one as well. The lining looks very nice and warm. It reminds me of the Lost words emerald, green Stu used in some jackets.

It’s funny you mention LW. The jacket is very reminiscent in fit to this suburban I proxied for Mendel:

Crumby pic but you see what I mean:

Both jackets are very broad with a sharp taper. The WD more prominent. I hate posting this fit pic but ya got me. I’ll get better pics in actual light. While certainly not as nice as that “God tier” LW cow, it’s no joke in its own right.

Linear is plush and immaculate! It’s a good winter option for sure!

The jacket fits you perfectly. I am also welcome a nice wind flap when present in a jacket.

Absolutely stunning work!

Two I might buy, depending on how high the bidding goes on it. I'm kindof torn between hoping they go for more than I want to spend, and hoping they go for low enough that I'll end up with them.

Old post I know, but this caught my eye again and cracked me up in recognition. I know all too well that sense of relief when something you know you shouldn't really buy veers out of "what I'm prepared to spend" territory.... as well as the sheepish "Well.... it just, y'know, sort of followed me home... bigger boys made me do it...." conversations when something is won by accident! (I still have a lovely bass in my office waiting creating the space for it at home when what should have been in the region of £500 came home for about a quarter of that..).

Man in bad wig and fancy dress disguise caught in the act of preparing to throw dog in the sea!
