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

I really like the view from the back, looks classy.


I just bought a vintage coat, I think these are called Barnstormers? Not sure.
Italian Army from the 50s.

This Windward is in on a Windward tack to me thanks to a quick tip from a friend! This is one of my favorite styles, if not my favorite. A Roughwear Clothing jacket with a Windward label in Pony hide. This jacket, in subtle variations, was in production from the late 30s through the mid 1950s. They are seen with Admiral Byrd labels and pictured in the 1941 Montgomery Wards catalog. I also have this style in Wool and linen.

The Blauer police jacket arrived and I'm quite happy with my purchase.
The " mouton " collar is a great color pairing for my Taylor's CMPD and the blauer jacket itself is quite awesome.
It fits me great, and is fairly lightweight while seeming pretty warm.

I am still working out how to get that properly fitting to my jacket, but I think it's going to work out pretty well.

Dios mio... Where did you get this jacket? I have never seen one in black and with a police batch holder. If you have time, could you PLEASE share lining images?
It did not appear as if the lining is original. I’m hoping the jacket can be brought somewhat to life and worn occasionally.

You can rock that jacket if you are careful. I would condition it with just tallow using your three mid-fingers. After a nice careful brushing to remove most of the dirt of course. I have known leather craftsman Deeping the entire hides on tallow to create a protective layer to hide. Here is a link to the technique, but to smaller scale.
