Amazing jacket Jonas! förbannat bra!

I got this beauty delivered today, a Y2 D-pocket(HR-55 i think) that I found on Mercari for a real steal. The jacket was sold as used, but it sure feels like new! super chuffed.

Cheers all!

Thanks a lot! Tack som fan!!
If that jacket of yours is used the previous owner sure was careful with it.
And by the way, I was humming on “Girlfriend in a coma” out of the blue yesterday.. Might need to listen to the Smiths it seems..

Very nice. I know it’s a test jacket, but I’d love to see more pics of this guy.

Is that a tab closure on the one hand warmer pocket? Curious since Reg asked me to trace and give him dimensions of the tab on my Seattle Woolen. Wondering if he’s using on this jacket.
Thanks! No tab closure on the pocket.

Just freshly washed and 90% dry m65 replica and duck vest, to set in creases again before completely dry, the first soaking water was brown because i wear this jacket for daily morning walk haha, not sure if there is a color loss or not still uniform enough to me

Perhaps from the pic, the upper back has some browning/ yellowing fade from the olive green

This jacket looks really great!

I wear my Helikon m65 every day to work and it still looks brand new in comparison to yours.

I think the recipe is to cinch the waist band cord to a close fit and the hem cord just a little bit, and then the rest of the jacket will drape or forced to drape and also I fully utilize the pockets the chest pockets to carry stuff and the lower pockets to rest my hands while walking
