Not a fan of the style but that one looks good, who made it?

It's the Schott x 3-Sixteen collab. Some of the nicest leather ever. I'm guessing Lux, they say Horween CXL, but this is pretty tame and soft and thin top coat. Really nice details on the hardware, liner, etc. but definitely not an A2 military spec type jacket. Just a few wears and I have a lot of brown peeking through. Like all Schotts I sit right in between medium and large. Went medium here and it's a tad small for this style I think. The large would have been a tent. Going to wear through next season and see how it goes, but after seeing that NZ Real McCoy, now that's an A2. Incredible fit. Still need to scratch that itch one day. If I ever see a Canyon Red A2 from Japanese Real McCoy, you might have to strap me down like Ulysses

5th (6th?) week of indoor lockdown - at least the jackets are getting some indoor/balcony wear...

Local govt-issue covid tests come in their own lil' biohazard bag (sort of off-putting...).

Hang in there!

The way things are done over there is a bit nuts. A friend's GF got stuck in Xi'an during their lock down a while back. It was testing almost every other damn day, and "positives" gets bus off to quarantine, literally. And even grocery shopping wasn't allowed. The intend was to save lives, but at what cost? Mental health matters too. It must be hard to experience this in Shanghai now. It will be over soon. Hang in there.

It's down to about 60° with a really strong wind today, so I'm wearing the 80's vintage Wranglers Sherp.

I have my CCS vest on under my jacket to, but some brass buttons I ordered to replace the original plastic buttons with arrived so I switched the buttons out.

I can't sew worth a darn ( I can stitch leather knife sheaths and ****** holsters though) but they're on there and not coming off.

Where have you been hiding all this time with such a great collection?

I've been reading for a long time without registering. Now I decided to show some of my jackets here.

Perfect fit and wear on this one.

Thanks for your kind comment.

I'm not entirely sure if this is the Bank of Brothers A-2. My Jacket was made by RMC NZ more than 20 years ago.

Bad *** indeed. That jacket looks like it was made for dropping a 38 snub nose in the pocket and going out and finding the ******* that killed your partner.
