Thedi Antiqued Tan Buffalo Cross Button Jacket

Will do. My brown Bootlegger and black Stuart are size 40s with 26 1/4 sleeve length and 26 1/2 body length while my tan Teamster is a 38 with 26 1/4 sleeve and 28 body length. However my new Thedi is an extra large in Greek measurements with 26" sleeve due to wider shoulders and 26 1/2 body length.

Those are all squarely within my wheelhouse. That garbage I said about 3 jackets was pure fluff. If the time comes...

I suspect I’m in for a similar wait for 3.0. I hope it proves to be just as worth it as your wait was. Some distractions in the meantime are always welcome!

great look HD, it compliments your physics, you must feel 15 yrs younger in it.
time to get bigger belt buckle and some boots

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Well..I have the bigger belt buckle and probably 5-6 pair of western style boots and even a couple of lace ups. Wore boots most of my life and my family was stunned when I bought my first pair of sneakers about ten years ago or so which I have worn ever since. They are just so much more comfortable for me.

Great looking jacket. It does look like it flares out quite a bit at the hips, is that the cut of the design or is it just sitting strangely because it’s new?

 

[Boyo]

Very Nice! HD.. beautiful and unique.. and it fits to a T.
How’s it look with all the buttons done up?

Not sure...it is trimmer above the waist which seems to purposely cause somewhat of a flare...but I think the wrinkling makes it more obvious. A little water spray and a few books to shape it flat may help it. I may do that tonight. In any event, I don't think I'll be sending it back for that.

Congratulations on your beautiful jacket HD!

Here it is buttoned all the way. I put water on the bottom hem and let dry trying to get the wrinkles out to make the flare look better but it does have a flare......

Can’t be improved upon. This is how a half belt back should fit!

It's beautiful and suits you well Van. Congratulations.

Looks like I may need to use my spray bottle to shape the bottom of the jacket better and straighten out the wrinkles...

Simply fantastic! And the the zipper coin is indeed a nice extra. Mine doesn't have it

Got the Indian head necklace charm on eBay years ago.
