The jacket in the background is amazing too I mean. My wife wants to go to Greece. Maybe that’s not such a bad idea.
I could do without the badge on the right sleeve, and perhaps more subdued contrast stitching (e.g., light brown or olive), but Yes, that jacket!
@MrProper Go for it!!! Warmth of a B3/Irvin without the needless bulkiness and with all the CR cool. That one is massively cool too!
i Might also be cool to make the Mandarin collar on this CR twice or 2.5 times as tall, given that it's a winter/shearling version.
Nice! I'd also prefer the shearling in brown, and a protective corduroy strip over last ~3" above hem.
That looks like it will age so well and just become one with the owner. I like the details. I imagine the thread will fade and add to the development of character.
Would come in handy for sure but IMO, that would really mess up that pure classic cafe racer vibe Thedi was going for with this style. I think it's perfect as it is (I'd personally add pocket piping but that's a minor detail). Higher collar would make it... I dunno, less of a CR and more something that's nothing.
The jacket is very comfortable to wear and shoulder mobility is unrestricted. Since I sold the jacket, @Guppy can best provide information on this.
