The Trucker and Varsity both sound interesting. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

[RocknRoll]

Thanks Giles. Damn it looks good. Am I correct in thinking a B-6 would have a similar silhouette?

Any word from Will if he will do a 'redskin' version?

[Giles]

I may have a B-6 somewhere, I'll take a look…I could get will to do a Redskin no probs...

44

Wow this looks absolutely trrific. How much is this beauty going to go for?

[Giles]

@Giles:

Will from Alexander Leathers has been sending me samples of jackets over the last couple of months.

Here is his take on a D1.  I'll tell you something, this sheepskin is some of the best I have ever seen on a D1.

This jacket is a 44 and the price is USD1,000 which includes shipping.  I can obviously get custom sizes made up.

[Giles]

Varsity jacket is also being sampled.  Will just asked me to send him a Chenille patch…..

[Arabit]

I'm assuming the varsity jacket will the same color as the IHF- VAR?

[Giles]

Not sure, I may change some aspects.

Maybe a dark grey wool G??

They need fit pix because its hard to see how these beauties behave on a human!

There's a post over at The Hat Place that claims Alexander Leathers has a limited supply of Horween Chromexel horsehide (FQHH) in stock…

[Finn666]

looks like there are some of these jackets floating around on ebay already…

@Giles:

It's amazing how your taste can change so quickly.  When I first saw this I thought, "Nope.  Not for me."  Months later, and after looking at a lot of jackets, I love this.  Funny.

(And yes, I'm already scoping winter jackets.  Is that wrong?)

[Giles]

I wear this a lot.  Admittedly, not during the current heatwave.  LOVE it….

[seanocono]

Good to know.  Thanks, G.  I know I'm jumping the gun with this (in terms of seasons), but I'm definitely looking forward to the collab updates.

I have wanted a shearling for some time. In my region it's really the best leather coat for much of the season.
