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

[Mysteryo]

Waiting for this!
(delivery excpected today)

Unknown maker, most likely German 50s or 60s. Main zip has been replaced, badly unfortunately. But I like the bold overall look.

Arrived yesterday, after Aero kindly remade it due to sizing issues.

Aero Original Hercules in Black Badalassi.

Olive contrast stitching, olive cotton liner, YKK zipper. Let me tell you: The hide is the bomb! Very luxurious hand; substantial yet pliable. The smell is sublime too. Will be quite some journey to see this break in.

Unfortunately, I do have too many black jackets now. Need to think hard about that.

Dismal photo, I know. The facial expression does in no way mirror my pleasure. Was just throwing the Herc on today to make a quick picture. Will seek to capture the hide and details better when the weather lights up (and before it gets too hot/humid again for ANY jacket).#

Jacket is tops and that leather is a worthy investment for sure. Looks and fits fantastic!

Far too small for me. Shame. This is an absolutely bad *** cop jacket. All talon hardware, heavy as Hell, great cut but likely a size 40” or maybe even a 38”. Couldn’t get it on.

Such a shame. The hide is amazing. Bummed about this one.

That’s some serious badass leather, too bad it didn’t fit…

I was going to wait untill i had the jacket in hand before posting pics, but i can't keep this to myself any longer, i think this jacket is just too cool not to share.

I don't know how much she weighs, but Stu said she was super thick and heavy, apparently they used 5+oz leather and lined some of the pockets (the patch pockets and the hidden gusset pocket) in their heavy canvas. I am expecting an absolute beast!
It isn't an exact copy of the Appalachian, more a LW interpretation than a real repro, but i think it really came out great.

Unfortunately i am leaving on sunday for a hike across Corsica (Gr 20) and won't be able to see it untill i come back on the 15th of July, i can't wait!

If any of you guys are into it, it should be available on the website soon...

I regret missing this til now.
Carlos you have some extraordinary cross zips, each an individual style of it’s own and always perfectly fit. None wear you and i doubt even this Ultra-Zip will either. You got this, man!!
Thinkin this LW is cooler then a fan in a freezer.

@Tom71 cant wait to see more of this jacket. Hope this fits better, still have not heard anything about my order for the last 2 months lol

 

[AbbaDatDeHat]

This is as good a time as any to post the ultimate Vanson, ultimate trucker and ultimate leather jacket that ever was and will be.

This one needs re-posting time to time. Cause we all need to cry about the girl...err...jacket that got away.
Thanks

This Hercules came in today. More to come. It does fit.

 

[Monitor]

Incoming. I need to stop this, seriously.

Just delivered, German mc jacket. Probably 50s or 60s. Other German jackets from the era that I've handled all had a very thick topcoat and were therefore very stiff. This one has a modest topcoat and drapes very nicely. Moleskin lining, satin sleeve lining, storm cuffs, beautiful machined belt buckle, ball and chain 'Ruhr' zipper pulls. The Germans really knew how to make a nice mc jacket. Why aren't we seeing more of these here on the lounge?

Too bad it's not my size

Just look at that belt buckle. But hey, I know someone whose size this perfect jacket is!

 

[ton312]

Bought a Wested "Skyfall style" jacket. Never had anything from them and after seeing the one posted in the classifieds I thought I'd give them a shot. Didn't want to reinvent the wheel and have fivestar do it and Wested seemed to get the collar right...They upgraded my order to dark brown cow FOC, so that was nice. I'm hoping it's thin and drapey.

Thats really useful pocket design. I thought I came up with it but I guess not. It’s like having two D pockets without the D patch. Left handed or not still works, and the **** in the pockets gets pushed to the sides and not poking at the belly like regular hand warmer type pockets.
Too bad it doesn’t fit. It’s an awesome jacket. FL Repro?
