Knocked out a removable mouton collar for the new cross zip yesterday. Came up with the pattern by looking at j24 pics since that seems like a solid design for attachment, and it is! Longest part of the process was dying the mouton from bright orange to this brown and letting it dry out. No one will ever see it, but added matching liner for a fun little touch.

You have some of the nicest jackets.
Thank you for the kind sentiments! After observing this sub-forum for about a year before jumping in and then some trial and error along the way, I feel like I've finally honed in on what works for me. I've definitely enjoyed the journey, but I think it will be coming to an end soon. My recently received Mushmans is pretty much end game for me. I'd still like to try a shawl collar cossack, and at some point I'll probably get a Type 2 to complete the trilogy, but it's time to enjoy what I have (and offload some stuff) instead of looking for the next hit.

Just when I thought this jacket couldn’t possibly get any better… mouton!!!
