How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

jacketjunkie · Mar 29, 2020

I still have this original late 40s half belt lieing around waiting to be reproduced by SB or JL. Might tackle this now that Hercules Leather Co shut down production. (My plan until a few days ago was to order a second Admiral Byrd in brown.)

And yes, mine is coming

Wow! Good luck! I bet it will be really nice, considering how much I enjoy my FW Centinela!

I posted a couple in the "What jacket are you wearing today" thread back when I first received it. As of then, I have been wearing it everyday still, wanting it to really wear in as much as possible before posting a review. But review aside, I am very happy with my jacket and I enjoy wearing it.

Just saw the pics... with such a fit no wonder you're happy!

Anybody familiar with Goodgal? I’ve got this one coming in, might be a project but it was cheap. Looks similar to Wards/ Hercules HH jackets of the same era. Just in time for summer.

Saw pictures and the label in one of my books about vintage jackets. Seen one or two on Etsy and from that Canada-based Ebay seller. That’s about it though. I can check again. It looks really nice. Perfect for that Chicago heat.

I’ve loved the Goodgal jackets for years!
It’s not cold enough for them here, but Congratulations! Great pick-up.

I’ve got this new IH Harrington in Navy blue on order:

I probably won’t look as cool as this guy wearing it but I can try!

navetsea · Apr 3, 2020

nice collar, and raglan make it looks cool sporty too on the chest but how that hand warmer pockets operate? looks like facing the wrong direction

Love it, but it would look so much more badass in leather!

I see what you mean but because the fabric is so light I think you sort of pull the pocket out around that flap and shove your hands in there. Not a concern of mine since I never use hand warmer pockets, at least not to warm my hands.

I have similar pocket flaps on my AA, i think they look very cool.
Even with leather it's not problem getting your hand in and out.

navetsea · Apr 3, 2020

it works as mini permanent auto flap, I never knew it would work for shoving your hand in and out nice info to know

Forgot to mention that I have a LW green HH car coat upcoming as well

Goodgal Aircomfort arrived. Fit is decent. Here’s a crappy pic. The jacket positively reeks of mothballs. Explains why the shearling is in such good shape but man. It’s pungent. I’m going to condition it this weekend. Needs a couple stitches repaired here and there but it’s a nice one. Reminds me very much of a shearling lined HWM.

Endgame winter coat on the way from our friend with the door. Love the details on this one. Detatchable sheepskin lining, inner pocket, western front and back yokes, crazy fur collar. Mad for 99 pound.

Mail's slow af. My Levi's trucker's been travelling for a month now. And it's still in the void. Oh well, not in a hurry to get it, anyway. How about you guys, stuff arriving on time?

That's one of these french coats, this style even has its own name I can't quite put my finger on right now... anyhow the super wide shoulders always kept me from getting one. Let us know how it fits once it arrives!
