Just curious: did you ever get the 613SH you wanted to order a couple of weeks ago?
Yes after some holiday craziness it should be here Monday, we shall see how it goes.....

My history you may recall is a 613s in a 46 back in the day then most recently in a 44 but nowadays I mostly wear the straight up 613 in a 42
....... So the 613sh that's coming is a 44 like your 618h if I recall (and maybe your 613sh as well??)

My reasoning for going up a bit is the cut with the s series is slightly longer so when I bend at the waist I like a little room with a slightly longer jacket

I was reminded recently of this by going with a "small" alpha industries m65 which fit great on the chest and shoulders and straight through for a more fashion fit but when I went to pick up my bag it felt too constrictive at the hip joint

Happy new year folks

Today I'm wearing 1940-1950s German horsehide Motorcycle jacket in Dark green colour

The quality of this jacket is unbelievable also well made

Fun alteration but its true form was nothing short of stunning. Quality of these coats towers of all.

Good morning...decided to wear an old Vanson Enfield HH today...bought this one off the rack at Vanson's factory probably 20 years ago or thereabouts...havn't worn it much but I plan to correct that! Have an awesome day everyone.
That’s a beauty! Wearing it more often is a good plan.

Wore the WeatherWool all around jacket for our hike this morning - surprising how well it worked in 13°F, low wind, weather.

Yes, I have both the 613SH and the 618HH in 44. The SH wears pretty restrictive as it doesn’t have the underarm footballs that do magic for moveability.

Looking forward to seeing you in this. Its a great jacket and wears totally different than the 613s/618.
