Schott Nixon, Navy today

Just arrived, Harris Tweed Schott Perfecto. 10 yo but in unworn condition. I love it, it's a keeper!

Kudos to @Mandarin for the find.

Too long, baggy and Harris Tweed doesn't suit you at all. I suggest you pass it on to whoever'd be crazy enough to buy something like this. XD

SJC 33 thanks to @torfjord for a wicked good deal. Fit is great overall. Has a three inch internal cuff so I’m going to have another 1” let out to get a better fit in the sleeve length. Love this one.

Looks way better on you than it did on me!

New to me 5 Star Cossack Jacket I picked up in the classifieds here on the lounge. This is marked a size 36. I've never worn a size 36 in my life and though this is mildly restrictive it still is very much wearable with a light t-shirt underneath. I'd say this fits more like a modern 40 or vintage 42. The leather is light, supple and has some really cool grain to it. I'm a fan. I might need to take a closer look at their other jackets.

Nice jacket, but your little co-star there steals the show, sorry...

Simon James Carthcart (SJC). Couple years back. He made two versions, the first I passed on b/c the back length was a very short 22”. This is the second version with a 25” back and works much better for me.

Yes, I recognize it. There was one for sale here, I thought too small for me. This style in vintage is near extinct. I have one that fits, but always on the search for old or new in this style. Very nice.

Congratulations, Marc! Good catch! Never seen it before and suits and fits you very well. I agree, this should be a keeper for you....but on the other hand I get the feeling that @Monitor needs to be cheered up with a nice jacket

 

[Monitor]

I'm kidding of course, @Marc mndt 's new wool Perfecto fits Perfectly! I'm jealous af but the truth is, the jacket goes impeccably with Marc's style while I'd be forced to dress this piece down with everything else I wear. Or go ironic, which I absolutely hate. I never wear anything ironically.

In my mind it was already on its way to Monitor even before it was delivered to me because I wasn't expecting an acceptable fit at all. But it helps a lot thats it's cloth instead of leather. I can actually use the belt to address the overhang. Like @Monitor said, this perfectly fits my style. Plus my gf likes it. Couldn't be happier with a Schott

Plus my gf likes it.

That's where it's at. Girlfriend liking your jacket vs. some lonely dude wearing it while walking a dog. No contest.

Field and Stream just came in the mail. Beautiful shadow plaid, size 44 all wool.

Depends, does the pooch approve?

BTW, any plaid with leather pants would totally work.

If you every find the Black Watch perfecto, you could go twinning with your dog

Very good find Terry! That will really be coming in handy very soon!

Early Friday ride. I’ve about knocked all the stiffness out of this bad boy.

That was my plan and hope in case the jacket wouldn't work for Marc. ;_;
