I’ve had two version one Wills jackets and they are extremely well made, but I sold them. I personally don’t like that they don’t have any vent holes in the arm pits, waxed jackets can be like wearing a plastic rain coat at times, and ventilation is needed IMHO. I recently purchased a coated N1 from IH and saw that they have done this which I think is brilliant!
I realize the design limitation with the version one Wills for the inside pocket, but it was too small and useless really. I see they have corrected this with the addition of a liner in the version two, but the liner just increases the lack of ventilation IMHO. I had a waxed rambler with a liner and it was without ventilation as well, Sold that also. SJ is a great company, not knocking them as I have leather products made by them which are awesome, Wills are just not my cup of tea. -
Mike put out that they're making a Denim Wills jacket in January. Not sure how durable it will compare to the typical Wills, but I imagine the fading on it will be crazy!

@Heritage_Guy 3 month turnaround on your Derroll's? I put my deposit down end of November, figuring I wouldn't see them until next fall! Now hoping I am on a similar timeline. Such a great looking boot.
-
I really wasn't expecting them before summer so an extra Christmas gift for me was great! Mike must have his own track with Wesco.
-
@TheChef17 I really want to try and snag one of these......been wanting one for ages!
-

Pictures from SJ Facebook, it looks cool! Probably around 15oz, seems to be a favorite weight for Mike. And probably have amazing fade potential like most of their denim choices!
I’m leaning towards the denim Ramblin instead because I’m a shorter dude it just fits my body type a whole lot better.
So hoping that’s on the horizon too

@Brock what a beauty! What's your size? Never had any ship john stuff but the denim wills has caught my attention
-
I got the same one on the 19th but this one was legit. I even paid the invoice. Although I didn’t see it right away as I have my email split up between messages, receipts, etc..
Edit: and just got my tracking, but not shipped yet
