What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[ton312]

Yes I saw that j106 with a removable collar video a while back as well. It's probably one of those mods that can only done for some not for the masses. It makes the jacket cooler for sure. Hope you get your midnight cxl soon, they just started production on my tumbled cordovan hwm

21 weeks as of tomorrow. Yeah I’m ready for it. Had some adventures along the way but I’m sick of appetizers. It’s dinner time.

I hope you get it soon! I'm sure we are all eager to see how that badboy will look! Maybe we'all see an avalanche of midnight cxl ord

Good combination.

Is that the brown or black TFH?

Black tfh shown with the vest.

I snapped some pics of the the brown one. I’ll hopefully post a little side by side comparison soon. Here’s a quick one.

At one point they did offer it. I had a j106 with a snap on from Aero. I think ultimately Ken didn’t care for how they turned out? Not sure but it would be a great option to have.

When I was ordering my STF Bootlegger, Ken was alright with a mouton collar, but only a non-removable one. Suit me just fine, as I have enough "warmer weather" jackets to choose from.

My Thedi has a removable mouton but I don't think I've worn the jacket even once without the mouton. It just looks so much cooler with the mouton in place

Grey cow , been awhile not wearing it, but it feels very soft now i can wear it fully zipped and feel comfy in it like a thick sweater... either my sense is altered by a harder jacket I daily wear these days or the leather gets softer in 5 years on hanger pulled by its own weight and air and light uv whatever age it. Or combination of both.

maybe they really really want to make sure this time it stays.

Mouton collar seems to be a must for some cross zips! How do you care for it when it gets wet?

It´s been wet many times, and I just leave it to dry in the open (no external heat-source). Never had the feeling, the mouton collar needed additional care.

I think I can do as much! Glad to know it's not fussy to care for. Thank you.

All cool, jacket fits great, love the colors but I'll never get used to those wide trousers. It's like a slim person is connected to... Someone else's legs. XD

Maybe Ken sees a removable collar as difficult to do properly. The collar on my Vanson Model E has eight snaps holding on it. I guess if the jacket got wet the collar would dry more slowly than the leather and wouldn't fit properly over time, maybe.

Most Schott Perfectos can fit mouton collar by default - I now actually have a jacket with one, massive-thanks to @Carlos840 - so I can't imagine it being such a big deal. Langlitz, too. LW can do it without much issue, as well.
Aero wouldn't do it even back then when I was ordering my first jacket. No big deal but it'd make a pretty cool addition to any jacket. Permanent furry collar sounds like more trouble than worth. I imagine it renders a jacket less wearable during warmer weather.

This showed up today. With a T-shirt on I can get it on, otherwise it's too tight (especially the arms) Photos & lighting do not do this dark cordovan justice at all...

It'll be back listed for sale farily soon.
