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

My first "new" and custom jacket for quite some time. Just needs the buttons on it.

Should fit well. I had Himel make it very short like my J22, though not quite as tapered due to the different style of jacket.
Beautiful. Love it. I wish there were more hair-on jackets around, just something about it. Looking forward to seeing the final result being worn!

That's really nice. Do you think the white will turn yellow over time with wear?
Thanks! I'm not sure. I wouldn't expect that as the hair has been treated. It could still happen though.

Yeah I'm a fan of them obviously. I'm excited to get it!

The beat up Vanson Swedish Dispatch I snagged from the bay should be in on Friday, to round out my little collection.
The Tan Vanson needs me to lose some weight to fit into, the black HG fits great and this incoming one is a about a size and a half too big, but I’m betting it will work out just fine with the waist cinching, and that these are designed to fit like a potato sack with sleeves.

It looks fine from 20 feet away, but it looks like the previous owner had a little get off at some point.

It came!
The bad first, the wool liner is in rough shape, there are both more, and larger, holes that didn’t make it into the photos.

but that aside it’s GREEN!

The ad didn’t mention color and I thought it was a black jacket taken in weird garage lighting conditions, or that it might be grey… but no, it’s GREEN.

I love it! Patch the lining and ignore the dings, and later I’ll send it to Vanson for a spa treatment, but it’s very wearable as is, and WOW, am I thrilled with the color!

It’s hard to capture, I had to sneak a black highwayman in there for contrast, but with the blue chair and the black jacket you can see it’s a dark almost but not quite olive green.

I'm waiting on an SB Car Coat in black prairie hide - it's gone into production, so should be on its way soon. This is an Aero Veste de Rallye in brown. I also want this, but now I don't need it:

Where there is choice, there is misery. It's at least cooling down in Hong Kong :)
