The Deck Jacket thread.

I bet Will's nice Silverman's is every bit as good if not better but realistically priced imo.

Like many here, I have way too many jackets and sometimes forget certain jackets. I remembered I had a Bronson N-1 (think it was the 2nd generation version) and started to wear it. It's become my go-to cold weather jacket and seems to handle pretty much anything upstate NY can throw at it. I have a N-3B that I wear a few times each winter when it gets dangerously cold - but the N-1 is a beast, looks great, and is easier to put on than the N-3B.

Would someone mind sharing photos of how the knits are attached in the sleeves?

Mine are sewn in oddly, and I’m thinking of replacing them with ones that match closer in color.
Thanks!

They could be sewn either way. Sewn to the lining then flipped then topstitched then the whole lining gets sewn to the shell. Top one (N-1). Knit cuff is sewn onto the lining using the serger machine after the lining is sewn to the shell. Bottom one (AL-1)
If the maker doesn’t have the multi thread serger machine then they’d have to use the top method I guess. When finished properly both methods works without itching on the wrist.
