Wow! We collectors of originals are gonna be in trouble in a few years!

I think this was one of his very early 422s. The mouton is just amazing and still straight and its been worn in pouring rain and the goat just keeps getting better and better. Its the best Navy repro I've ever owned and I've owned for all the big repro makers.

Wow! This is another outstanding jacket from John. It looks even better now after the wear it has had. :)

That is an outstanding jacket. I really like the details of this contract.

Yeah and John gets the little things right and this is the best mouton I've ever seen on a repro. And did I mention how incredibly nice this goatskin is?

Allen that jacket's the cats meow! I had a Willis and Geiger M-422 I wore in high school. I wish I had never got rid of that jacket. Seeing those pics makes me want to get JC to make me one when he gets caught up.

I sold the Werber. I still have the Monarch. Will let it go at a great price. It has killer goat and is in great condition. The mouton is vintage mouton and I will let it go for a great price. PM if interested. I would love to not have to take it to greedbay.
