so I love to do custom jackets with stu and I have been patiently waiting for the most recent to get here. The jacket weighs 10 lbs in 4oz hh. I have gotten nickel hardware the last two times because it matches the #10 crown. Well this time I did nos brass talon pocket sleeve zips an a diamond talon pull for a chest with the #10 crown. I like the mismatch hardware an originals mixed them sometimes. I deleted the epaulets, the badge holder, the belt loops, collar snaps. I deleted fur from cuffs also an added deer skin. I added a chest pocket which I really like. Another thing I did was add custom cuffs, i saw a langlitz jacket that had similar cuffs and wanted them instantly. I really like how it turned out. It is stiff and fitted and I think its going to break in lovely. The stitching, build, and construction are flawless, its an example of a l.w. jacket that their known for. Now pics.

The custom cuffs are nice but that chest pocket is a great touch. A call out to custom Cals. Great idea. The mismatched hardware works extremely well too. If/when I decide on another LW, I will go that route. Looks good and saves a bit of loot.
