This short aviator cross zip style has been my favorite jacket style for the last 7 years- well before I got into vintage. To have something like this feels really nice.

Perfect fit, as good as any you have. Love everything about this jacket. I know this is a style you’ve wanted for a while. Really glad you got it!

I love that jacket and how it fits on you! Congratulations on yet another great vintage find

Thanks! Yeah I'm thrilled with the fit overall.

That looks absolutely superb!

It couldn't fit you any better and the style is timeless and wonderful.

What a thing!

Thanks! This is exactly the style and fit I was going for!

Cool vintage jacket. It fits perfectly!

Thank you!

Yeah it just has a bit of room at the bottom, but otherwise it's absolutely perfect. Thanks again for the assist! It's very satisfying to finally have something like this.

This fits you beautifully! I know the outlay was huge for it but I would take the final step and replace the tattered lining. I’m baffled by the sky high prices these jackets are commanding these days. I saw a very similar style (MW) on Etsy in 2016, mint condition for less than a quarter of the cost. I guess inflation is hitting this hobby too. Either way this jacket is a lifer so you may as well take it all the way home.

I think I’ve invested as much time and effort as I am going to in refreshing this battered 60s Montgomery Ward. I’ve conditioned it, fixed a belt loop and a zipper pull and de-harleyed it. Replacing the main or sleeve zip would be more than the jacket is worth, but I think it’s a lot of fun as is!

Thanks! Yeah it wasn't cheap, although I was able to contact the seller directly and get a better deal than the listed price.

I agree the jacket is nice enough to make the lining perfect. I'm not sure if I want to just have it repaired or replaced? It's actually not in bad condition, it's just come loose in some places from what I can see. What I really want is a replacement label for it...

Nicely done What's the back like on this one?

Thanks! Not the most wild, but not overly simple either.

I've always been a fan of the contoured yoke and middle expander with the half belt

Maybe the last time I can wear it here in East Texas until late october, but heres a little pre loved jacket I picked up cheap due to a broken zipper. Fortunately I work with leather so I partially disassembeled, and sewed in a new brass zipper. Now I can zip it up! I just had to wear it out for a test

A refreshing feel to wear this DH HH Leather Jacket

I like the splitted back with the narrow half belt
