I don't think it's my style, but man is it sharp! Never thought I'd see something like that.

That is a striking jacket. looks quite comfortable too.

I like that, as it's reminiscent of my wool HB. It opens up a whole new world of possible wool versions, so I'm going to look at the catalogue afresh to see if it might work on something else.

Holy hell that is nice. Good thing it is not in my size....

Yeah, count me in the love group. Would like to see a wear pic, but it looks great.

I think this leather and tweed combination would work well with their Barnstormer, and also some of their other longer jacket styles....

That is a stunning jacket. Absolutely LOVE it. Great combination. I love the single pointed yoke. Damn it. WHY Didn't I do that on my bootlegger??? I'm an idiot!!

 

[Superfluous]

Thats very clever. Himel does some similar hybrid jackets.

We have eight available options for jacketing tweeds on these Tweed and Horsehide jackets--

and four Vicenza Horsehide colors...

Russet
Seal
Dark Seal
Black

That makes for a ton of cool combos...be creative and have a ton of fun with the design!

You're killing me. That Beater Grey Shetland Tweed is calling me!!

 

[Carrie @ Thurston Bros.]

You're killing me. That Beater Grey Tweed is calling me!!

The Porters Grey Shetland coupled with either Black or Seal Vicenza would be the business!

Good lord - where have these been hiding???

 

[MET]

Any Harris Tweed option possible?

This is a new offering...great for Spring and Fall!

 

[Carrie @ Thurston Bros.]

Any Harris Tweed option possible?

The Harris Tweeds have a looser weave than our Jacketing Tweeds do...therefore, we would be hesitant to use them...

 

[Pdxgeo]

Didnt schott do a full harris tweed perfecto? I recall a blackwatch and a light brown one...

This tweed/leather combo is nicer. Love to see a d pocket version maybe using seal leather...

 

[Pdxgeo]

Its beautiful. Seems like thick itchy herringbone with heavy leather is a match made in heaven.

Why don't you delete it..?? You have that edit option.
