@Mustafa911 always, my friend

@neph93:

^ but did one of them go to you?

No sire. Would have loved to get a jacket in this fabric but realistically, there are a couple of more pressing "needs" ::): IHSH-178 and a white western, plus the overdyed lefty T3 is something I have wanted for a long time now (notice how I didn't pretend to be "needing" this one).

[neph93]

@Crit_Obs prioritising is important (and at times difficult). I meant to respond to your query about white westerns actually. I’ll try and get on to it this evening.

Like I needed an excuse to pick this jacket up, its been on my wants list since I laid eyes on it. But as it turns out, its my birthday next week so this jacket is a present to myself. Went with an XL after seeing those post wash measurements line up fairly close to those of the type iii.

Damn this has sold pretty fast - were not a lot made or was it very popular? Either way, good to see a Type II doing well!

[Giles]

I don't know how many were made in total, but we did not take many due to the historical ambivalence our Type II's have received…

That's a shame. The Type I, in overdyed black, was the first jacket I bought from you all. It was my favorite. Love this jacket, too. Pictures soon to follow…

I asked my wife to take this picture. She said, "Don't you already own this jacket?" I replied, sheepishly, "no." If anyone asks, I have owned this jacket for years.

Yes, sir. A place down here called "Matters of Space" sells his prints. We got the last two.

Looks very good. Great fit.

Thanks! I don't know how to tag you, Neph93, but thanks for the complement.

@Wlemon just type @ and the username but with no spaces

Hey, @Alex, thank you! 

[atm23]

@Wlemon Looks great! I got mine in the mail yesterday. Great furnishings as well!

[Crit_Obs]

The shrink-test specimen looks like it didn't take too kindly to machine-washing. Why might that be, in this particular case?

[Wlemon]

Thanks, @atm23!

The fabric is unwashed and only lightly sanforised so shrinkage was expected. The advice with this is to treat as raw.

Yes but I was alluding to some pretty evident marbling in the post-wash photos.
