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

[Destruct]

I came across this old straight zip CHP and had to grab it. Very heavy weight with a huge collar that reminds me of old hunting jackets.

The leather was pretty dirty / dry. I gave it a thorough wipe down and applied a little conditioner which immediately brought it back to life.

Looks like a Cal!

This one just got thrown on my porch. Hideout leathers of California. Pretty cool stitch work and pleats. Very small size 44” but I can wear it to smuggle the goods through Juarez as I’m sure the original owner must have.

I do wish the collar was larger and hit my shoulders. Liner is sagging in the left sleeve and in the back. Will tend to that this weekend.

Talking with Aero about having their recently retired "Wilderness" jacket made as a one-off in cordovan CXL steer. I don't know what the reasoning is for why they discontinue certain models, but they took down a handful of really nice (in my opinion) styles after that last sale in August.

Yeah, the western shirt disappeared, but they agreed to make me one anyway. Arrived today

Scored this Korean made Harley Davidson off of Yahoo JP earlier today. Looks like really nice horsehide. Measurements looks perfect and the price was good so I have very high hopes!

I always have a few jackets coming and going, and I currently own only two leather. My Guidemaster is getting dangerously tight on me, and so I couldn't keep away from a size 40 Kit Karson with original studwork out of Japan. 10% off, 75 dollars in bank rewards, so it's free as far as I'm concerned.

This should be here Saturday.

Adding a "sun baked dog turd" to my box from Japan:

Going to need the @ton312 Urad treatment.

LOL. I’m going to need to grow my beard back. Big time.

I could probably go shirtless in -100 artic polar nut freeze and be unfazed.

Tony youre evolving backwards! You started with tanned and finished leathers that take time and are highly crafted. Now youre clearly taking down animals by hand and just wearing the hide right away. You somehow pull off every look though, I wish I had the chutzpah to wear this.

LOL! I suspect my wife will wear it more than I will. Of course that won’t be the case at 5 AM dog turd/run this guy into the ground cold ass AM’s.

Dont even get me started on the 5am dog turd runs haha. We both live in snowy windy places, I am over it. Though maybe Id feel differently if I had that mammoth to wear.

It’s funny, I never wanted a shearling jacket or coat but I now get the appeal. The box it came in weighed 8lbs! Definitely a “one and done” style. Feels like something an Eskimo made by hand to hunt polar bears.
Not sure how many opportunities I’ll have to wear it. But when I can I will!

Hard to capture but it’s a really cool muted gray, faded brown.

Almost looks like it's from a wolf or similar animal, not a color you see every day but I really like it!

I really like it. It is one of the thicker shearling coats I have seen.
