I picked up an old issue field jacket in camo wear it all the time. Had them put army and last name tape on just like my old issued jacket. It is my go to jacket letting out the dogs with the liner in winter. Wore to work yesterday. So much more comfortable wearing that vs heavy leather all the time. Looks great on ya

Thanks man!
Re: patches I’ll probably end up putting some fun and/or nerdy ones on it, haven’t really decided 100% but it’s calling out for more.
Textile-wise denim jackets and chore coats do seem to get more love on this thread than field jackets, you should share one of yours now and then!

@Marc mndt Thanks very much! It’s a perfect Autumn jacket and quality is quite nice. Sleeves needed to be altered but this was no issue at all. I‘m glad to choose the heavy cotton instead of wool!

Still thinking at least a minuite or two about this one. It is, in fact, my only leather jacket left at this time...

Randy, don't do it! Get rid of that last leather jacket and it's all over! Keep it!

I'll see another one from the World of Scotland in ~ Janurary timeframe.
Trouble is, I really like the Eastman Ostmann Luftwaffe Flying Jacket - and wish I saw more photos of it out in the wild.
It's this one: https://www.historypreservation.com...-1945/german-luftwaffe-leather-flying-jacket/

^^ that cordon Ridley looks great on you and too bad if you move it on as you just recently received the jacket. The Eastman Luftwaffe is super nice though. . .

I think these bad bois will work for you much better than the cross zips.

Does Eastman also take modified orders, the Luftwaffes shoulders seems to be longer than most jackets
