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

[Tom71]

is this "journeyman" uniform, I remember reading article in wikipedia about apprentice of crafts there wear such uniform to take pilgrimage across the country to apply their skill... I thought wtf is this 21st century looks very steampunk cosplay meetup-ish, but got to say apart from everything else (velour jacket and top hat and stuff) their bootcut carpenter pants looks fashionably cool.

I can assure you, it has nothing to do with cosplay. It´s the real deal.

You can freequently see young apprentices of the carpenter trade and related professions wandering cross my country in their traditional attire. Occasionally they will approach you for a free bed for a night and/or a meal. Your picture of a "pilgrimage" is accurate, I guess. It s a very old and "real" tradition in an ever more virtual world.

Pretty accurate Picture...

When will this one be delivered? We need fit pics!

It came and went, it was way too large. Even on the tightest adjustments. I was literally swimming in it.

Incidentally, I just ordered one in navy last Friday. Saw it on a colleague, and he was full of praise. The beast got delivered on Saturday, and I cannot recommend it enough. Runs pretty long in the body with an otherwise pretty neat fit. incredibly heavy too.
Funny to see a post on this just now.

Just arrived today, Navy too here, what an excellent piece of craftsmanship!



Cheers

That's a bummer! looked cool judging from Aero's photo's.

stoked on my 'new to me' Stevenson Overall Co. jacket with custom TSPTR snoopy patch added.... Had this patch for ages, very excited to finally find the right place for it......new favourite jacket. ( shout out to Barcley who traded it with me. ).

Shearling from Fivestar was ordered. I call it "Frankenstein" because its a mix of different jackets.

I love snoopy! always have...
Here is my patch waiting for the right jacket:

I also have a hand-done skull chain stitched one I don’t know what to do with...

Beer and Ebay are a dangerous combo for folks with the leather jacket affliction...... Hopefully these end up being keepers.

I think the pics are lying a bit but hopefully these are nice. If not, I will try them on after a couple of beers to improve their fit. Sorry to anyone who was in on these. But they could hit the market again if they don't fit me.

Hoping to come up with something special in the next 6 months to have 5 Star make. Then I GOTTA shut down the purchasing.

Maybe a “Cheney” tribute jacket

 

[Turnip]

Haha, yes, but skip a DC tribute shape...

Jumped on this brown Bates as the “times viewed per hour” ticker started ramping up

So it arrived. It’s in great condition. Overall vibe is like a longer Seven. Liner intact, mild whiff of old closet, a little scuff here and there. But that collar. Man it’s something in person.

But turns out the seller didn’t do a great job measuring (he even sent pics of the measure but not of the whole tape).

Chest measures 23.5 instead of the advertised 22. Womp womp.

 

[handymike]

The collar is a masterpiece!
Pm me if you are interested in a size down.

 

[patchmark]

I'll take it off your hands.

This one should be here today or tomorrow. The second to last entry in the Fall denim avalanche. 20oz black organic denim/flannel lined chore coat. I’ll need to remove the patch. Other than that it looks pretty darn solid and was a really good deal. This company is open to all manner of customization, so depending how this feels I might do a 30oz Sherpa lined type III.

When you fire away at new jackets, you do it tommy ***-style. That's how its done. No little potshots at what you are looking for. This one looks very cool.

Thanks to @Corky Corcovado I should be receiving an N1 shortly! Looks like my patch may soon have a home .

I can confirm that it was, it had a really nice leather (not too thick) and warm lining. If I would have fit in it better, it would have been a keeper.
