He’s on IG and his brand is Coffin outerwear. Just getting off the ground. Cool branding too.

That moleskin cossack is very cool. Looks very much like the "ones that use to make"

I just followed him. Can't wait to see the jacket. Nothing really like it out there now. I like his wool material. It's the fancier weaves and not the run of the mill nylon melton.
Are you getting it unlined? How were these lined back in the day?
Unlined! I had a super old Sportclad hunting jacket made from this type of wool. It was unlined as well. Truly no need for a liner. The sleeves just need to be wide enough for easy on/off.

Nice! The Filsons wool Macks are also unlined. Makes a lot of sense actually. Can't wait to see this one. Not a lot of good woolen mills left in the world. Most of them are still in the UK...

Yeah I've worn unlined Filson Mackinaws for years; heavy unlined wool is awesome across a surprisingly wide temperature range, compared to synthetics. Would be happy to see such mills & ranchers get a business boost from communities like this.

Following Coffin as well now. It looks like a nice start so far! Less synthetics, more sustainable material!

Barbour Border. Took a chance and ordered via ebay from Ukraine. Let’s see what happens.

Might be a slow boat... I had etsy orders from both Ukraine & Russia earlier this year and each took months to arrive (esp. the Russian one), though I was warned as such so it wasn't a big deal. I recall the Ukrainian order delay mostly being due to US Customs in NY sitting on it for weeks.

Yeah, was quoted early March. But it’s not Barbour weather until then anyhow.
Hope it works out for you.
Some of my favourite jackets were off the rack, rolls of the dice, while custom made to order have all been sold off except my Langlitz. That Colimbo I just picked up was a gamble and I think it will end up being one of my favourites.

Langlitz Columbia finally arrived today!
First impression- they nailed it!
I’ll have to figure out where I like the waist laces, but other than that it just needs some use and abuse. Leather is quite stiff and so are the zippers. Movement is easy due to the sorta oversized top end. @Carlos840 was right about doing yoga in it, and mine isn’t even broken in! See below for demonstration at the expense of my dignity
This is a standard Columbia modified with no action back and square cut back bottom.
Here are some terrible pics, I’ll aim for a more complete review post down the line.

I really like it from the back. I think from the front it looks a bit oversized with the armholes and upper arm areas, but that will likely dissipate once it breaks in more the leather creases, rolls, and settles down.
Well done!

Thanks!
I agree it does look big from the front and feel like it will settle down once some of the stiffness is knocked out of it.
Really reminds me of my 21 oz denim jacket which was like cardboard on delivery.
I suppose only time will tell but I'm optimistic!
Noice!

I like the underarm footballs, it almost doubles as a back gussets for the lats. There is a columbia with a shirt tail in the Classifieds I have been eyeing for a while. Waiting for my Cascade to arrive to make the final decisions.
What's in the little leather pouch?

The pouch contains a tub of their leather dressing
