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

[Monitor]

Well this ancient, thrashed thing arrived. If I can get the back fixed, it'll be wearable. But this thing is old. Even the replacement YKK zipper became vintage by now! Let alone the jacket...

IR on the way.

Aero's?

Nope, Fidelity like @Gamma68’s but in a size 40.

Very nice, I think you will really like the jacket. I also have one.

To me the little pocket makes all the difference.

I just pulled the trigger on a new Ryder from Lost Worlds in 3.5 ounce black horsehide. For those who are not familiar with this model it is a pretty basic half belt style jacket.
This was very much a spur of the moment decision. I have a couple of really nice half belts in brown but the only black jackets I own have a serious MC vibe to them, zips sleeves, #10 zippers, and heavy leather. Therefore it was only logical that I fill this void in my collection with something new...
I’m sure you all understand!

I certainly do, I also lack what you could call a "basic" black, so been considering either a downtown car coat or a Ryder as they could both fill this void I am so desperate to fill

Your post actually made me realise I only have two black leather jackets lol

I have the exact same (I think) in a better condition, a size 42/44

Looks like it's out of an Ivan Albright painting:

Isn’t that funny!?!
I started out buying some brown ones for variety and when I stopped to think about it I realized I had brown covered twice over and now it’s time to get back to black.

Red devil, don’t do it. On second thought, do it!

Been seeking a Cal Leathers since the last one (vintage late ‘40s) didn’t work out.

This one is now on the way:

In my case, I went through a wide range of colours
Most unique colour being maybe this one?

Very good choice you will love it. I added the yoke from the trojan to mine and used the cuffs from the national racer, i did brown 3.5

That made me chuckle!

Different problem, same remedy here: I own 5 black jackets but 0 from LW. So - I ordered a Ryder in black HH two weeks ago.

Just pulled the trigger on this. Complete impulse. That's two FW jackets for me in one week...Thanks TFL!

John,
I like both of those modifications very much! I will talk to Stuart about adding them to my jacket.

Two great minds, confronted with different problems, arrive almost simultaneously at the same solution!
Can’t wait to see your Ryder.

 

[red devil]

@El Marro and @Tom71 I can't wait to see both of your ryders!
And I will have to add a black ryder or car coat to the new year order list from LW
