Wore my black Himel Frobisher to Boa for some ribeye . . . sat next to Scary Spice (one of the Spice Girls) . . . my life is complete.

I just purchased a 1998 “time-capsule” Willis & Geiger bush pilot jacket from a charity thrift clothing store (at a ridiculously low price). It’s brand new with the sales tag in the pocket along with a still-sealed escape whistle and spare button (the whistle is a relative rarity with these jackets, always missing from used jackets).
The hide is a super grainy, pebbly lambskin in an eye-pleasing mahogany russet brown.
Pockets are lined with moleskin.
This is one luxurious jacket!
As a collector of Willis & Geiger clothing, I’m very happy to add this to my closet!

Wow. Interesting jacket. Indeed, the time capsule. Show please the whistle pics.

And, you sure do have some hats! Pretty cool jacket I don't know what the fit issue is? Don't see too many in brown that's pretty rare and the collar nice

Agreed. I’ve only seen two and I own the other one. Fit looks good. Little longer in the sleeves would be ideal but not really an issue!
