for me your best jacket.

That leather develops really nicely...!

Thank you, I think the thickness 1.3mm non pressed vegtan and the uneven semi translucent color make it a lot more interesting than my 1.6mm pressed vegtan , I'm really happy, and looking forward how it would fade or if the hue would get warmer with time.

I mainly wore my FW Brakeman coats lately. It's cold enough for the olive deerskin Thedi with included shearling vest now:

Daily wearer (to the office): Freewheelers Peacoat (1918 model with both the handwarmer AND the lower flap-pockets). Madly in love since I first saw it.

I wear the collar turned up most of the time, hence the slightly "wobbly" look of the collar in the pictures.

Very heavy and totally windproof. This is size 44; I could have pulled off the 42 as well, but I need this to layer over a suit jacket and decided on sizing up as the model has rather high arm holes.

@Tom71 Congratulations. Your new FW Peacoat looks, fits and suits you just perfectly. Looks quite nice in combination with a suit but also business casual or leisure.

Thank you, @Robbie, that´s very kind!

I always had Peacoats off and on, but the WW2 model usually doesn´t cover a suit jacket fully. It´s really nice to have a non-leather jacket that is a real "favorite" that I can wear to the office. Brings a smile to my face every morning...

Such a great design. Love both the WWI and WWII designs, but this is perfect.

That’s outstanding!!! I sold my mint original 10 button WWII and regret it nearly everyday.
