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

I know we got off-topic of incoming jackets, but one of the things that make TFL interesting to me is diversity. I know what my jackets and my vintage brimmed hats look like and how I wear my jackets and hats. If ever one else was wearing the same jackets and the same hats as me and wearing them the same way I do, how boring that would be, why bother wasting time on TFL? The same holds true with boots, I have a triple inflection.
Could not agree more. Theres so many boots, jackets, belts, hats, you name it, that I would never know about. So many styles and places, pets, backgrounds, etc...I love it all Even if its not my style or my kind of fashion I love seeing it. Theres people from all over the world and its fun hearing about local scenes and places. Hearing how the weather or economy makes choices for people sometimes. Tuck/Untuck, boots or sneakers or flip flops, I enjoy that were all so different, yet uniquely the same.

This has been my most exciting week since I purchase my first Leather jacket 19 years ago three incoming.
First up a large size Star Glove Shearling lined size 46 excellent robust condition. Purchased Saturday delivered Tuesday.

2nd another Stare Glove overshadowing the 1st. The same excellent and robust condition sized to fit trim and at my waist. I purchase this SG yesterday delivered today. This jacket is going to become a go-to jacket

Last but not necessary least due in tomorrow of Monday a Schott horween veg-tanned steer D-pocket perfecto

And I am not done, rode up to Johnson Leather today to drop my Aero Connolly Patrolman jacket off for needed alterations

The Schott 628us arrived yesterday. The Horween veg. oil tanned steer hide looks and feels like I think my 50s Langlizt horsehide Langlitz would have been before summited to being worn, smooth, luxurious, conforming to my body. The hide smells a lot like my Himel shinki oil-tanned horsehide.

I always tucked my shirts in including T-shirts until 5 years ago when my colon was removed. Now my bowels protrude out my abdomen and I attach a bag to collect waste which creates a bulge. In addition to the bag, I have a pocket of blood and fat between my skin and abdomen wall that protects my bowels where they protrude from the wall, further increasing the bulge. I was once asked if I was carrying a *** by a teller at &-Eleven. Now I only tug a shirt if I am wearing my jacket zipped and even them the tugged shirt interferes with the bag. This is the only place my wearing my shirt not tucked has ever been questioned. I have considered having the pocket of blood and fat removed by cosmetic surgery, but there are health and safety concerns. I have explained my condition here once prior after another member commented on my shirt not being tugged in? I do not let my condition slow me down, I am seventy and this weekend I raced my forty-foot sailboat overnight out in the open Pacific ocean in 30 note winds and high confused seas. When I was not wearing a foul weather jacket, I was wearing a leather G1 jacket


Dude, you're an *** kicker!!!!! Much respect brother!!!! A inspiration man---Keep on keepin on!!!

That Schott is very nice wish it were part of the regular line up. After the d-pocket I think the thinner belt is what I like the most compared to the standard perfecto.
