Thor, beautiful color of cuffs and waistband on the first photo of your jacket! Looks like on m422 period, despite the fact that this is LL Bean.

Thanks @Flightengineer! The older LL Bean stuff was really well made. This jacket has thick sheepskin lining (super warm!), real mouton fur collar, wool knit cuffs & waistband and thick goatskin leather. It appears very dark brown (almost black) when it’s overcast and cloudy but under brighter lighting conditions it shows it’s real color: dark seal brown with brown knits.
You can find these 20-Year old sheepskin-lined LL Bean jackets on eBay for around $100 (sometimes less), making them a real bargain.

Thank you, I've never seen them before.
I saw only their A2, but they are not very interesting for me, and of course LL Bean for me - it's their duck boots, which I wear in wet and dirty weather.

My Ike for the morning commute. Change to my new vest for the rest of the day to start breaking it in.

Drizzle in old Germany, so I changed from others back to black cotton/poly-winterjacket, what else.

Maybe it's just me. This is sort of a base I was going from.

There's a Star Wars theme outfit challenge on another forum I'm on that will be going on this Thursday when the new Star Wars movie comes out.

That's the first thing coming to my mind

maybe if I would wear my hooded raincoat and carry pocket umbrella to the cinema, they would call me a jedi

Now that's a scruffy looking nerf herder if I've ever seen one.

So i just discovered the fedora lounge a few months back after stumbling upon a picture of a Thedi jacket online. Well, i suppose i'm hooked much to the chagrin of my finances. I purchased a Thedi and am quite pleased. Of course six weeks after its delivery the weather is waaaaaaay to cold forwearing it. That logicallyhad me looking at shearling lined options. I like the an-j-4. I also like the 50's half belt deluxe with fur collar with a shearling liner added. Unfortunately, both $ and delivery time (12 weeks) neither will get me thru this winter. Recently whilst searching for the end of the internet i stumbled upon this jacket. NOS with tags. It's no Aero an-j-4 but at 1/10 the price it will scratch the itch formthe next few weeks. It also satisfies my question about how i'd actually like an A2 based on cut.
