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

Midwest Sport Togs Deerskin came in today. Traditional half-belt styling you don't see often in deerskin with the beautiful lining. I have a Milco-West in the same half-belt style but had to try this one on. A bit small for me, but will be a very nice fitted half-belt for someone.

A beautiful one Terry. I was an inch away from the BIN after waiting for clarification of the measurements. Congrats!

Star Glove. Stopped lying to myself. Stopped telling myself that I could go on without one in the closet. Just one or two more jackets that I have in my mind to own, then I’ll pull a quasi-A1.
That is awesome!
Now is this one that you had had your eye on for awhile or just a spur of the moment thing?

Somehow, a bit of both. About to post some pics in the Cal thread. The website is acting up again on my phone. Been trying for the last 15 minutes. Lol. Anyways, incredible jacket. Don’t fit, but incredible.

great job on this, love the no side panel with 1 piece leather band. Greg gave you a perfect hide, it's so nice. this is the grain I want for my upcoming piece, smooth flawless grain with rich color depth. Congrats

Last one for a bit—

HD Cycle Champ that MAY fit me. Been rolling the dice lately.

hope it's better than the last roll.

what's so involving with the design that they are taking their time with it?

I hope this works out for you, if it's a little long in the body that's an easy fix so long as it fits well in the torso. That will look so much better after you condition it too.

The HD will fit— just a question of too tight v just right when zipped.

The Star Glove is so amazing I’m honestly not even mad about forgetting to ask for the hem measurement. I think it will be in my collection for a long time. I took it out twice today just to look at it. Even the snaps are cooler than the norm. Old school.

well let's just say it's just right, speak it to fruition!

the grain on th star glove looks otherworldly, I wonder if it started out smooth grained and developed over time. I hope something can be done about the hem so atleast you can wear it unzipped on the odd occasion. Gotta look up the snaps on them again

I don't know. I guess my desired dimensions don't fit the standard pattern of the M-444 and I don't like reinforcements from other leather either. No jacket has been made from this shearling yet either. This one is the first. I am curious.
