My "Open Road" 30s Jacket...

[Indy Magnoli]

Just did this for a customer, who changed his mind in the end so... thought I might keep it. What do you think?



It's an antique brown goatskin.

Kind regards,
Magnoli

Looks like it was made for you, Indy! Great-looking jacket. His loss should be your gain, I reckon.

 

[Technonut]

Very nice.... Looks like a keeper to me Indy..... :eusa_clap

Beautiful jacket Sir!

I love the 30's cut jackets, very flattering cut.

I love the sleeve detailing, does it have buttons or zips on the ends?

Kind regards,
rufus

30s jacket

Superb detailing on the back Indy! Where's your barrow boy cap from? Another new Magnoli product?

 

[Feraud]

A very sharp jacket Indy Magnoli. Put a fedora on it and it looks like you stepped off the set of The Natural.

Very nice. I can't wait to see how my jacket turns out.

Very sharp!
Love the detailing on the back and cuffs!

 

[Indy Magnoli]

Thanks everyone. The cuffs are zipped:

There are more shots of this jacket at my site (just click on my mug above to get to the right page).

The hat comes from Miller. I've been wanting to add these to my site for a while, but they are so readily available at good prices, there doesn't seem to be much point.

Kind regards,
Indy

Indy -- I've been admiring your work for months now. This is just a stupendously cool jacket and a near work of art. :eusa_clap

I want one!

I might too...especially if you'd consider A-2 type pockets and no zip pocket as a custom thing.

This latter design also would be great in a cotton poplin as a summer jacket...

 

[Indy Magnoli]

As many of you know, I'm all about custom work, so if you want a pocket here, a zipper pulled off there... no problem. Just drop me a line...

I'll actually be adding a cotton version of my Roy Hobbs jacket soon. The funny thing is that the cotton jackets (because they are tailor made) end up costing the same as their leather counterparts. [huh]

Kind regards,
Indy

Hey Indy,

Looks good, love the cuffs. I bought a Schott Hi-wayman style jacket a couple of years back and the cuffs had the same style, but were huge. I had my local leather guy narrow them down and add zippers. It's a great look, keeps the cuffs trim and warm. More places should offer this as an option.

Nice jacket Magnoli. I think the back detailing might be my favorite part. It almost has a western yoked look.

And I'm still anxiously awaiting your addition of caps to the website.

Here is a new hybrid of this "Open Road" jacket with the classic "Adventure" jacket:

This was made in a very nice thick cowhide with a dull finish. You'll also notice that I used a plaid wool lining for the body to add to the vintage look. This jacket will end up being around $595 (shipped). I'll be adding it to my site shortly.

Kind regards,
Magnoli

I was the one who originally commissioned the "open road" jacket and need to clear somethings up about it. The original "open road" jacket was based on a jacket produced by The Few last year and would like to give them credit for it. I asked Magnoli Clothiers to produce it and asked them to switch to zipper cuffs from the button cuffs as seen on the original. But after a 3 month wait they were unable to produce the leather they promised so I was forced to cancel the project. It was not a case of a simple change of mind. But they did refund my money in the end so no hard feeling.

ps I would post a pic of the Few's version if I can figure out how to.
