H. & L. Block M-422a

[STEVE S.]

The new Block is finished with only the hanger strip to be added... Hope to have some decent weather in the next couple days for pics. Indoors makes it look black, Flash makes it look russet, but you can at least see the jacket/details. This one was copied from & is pictured with an unrestored original I have. color is a dark seal brown. zipper is a NOS Talon from MASH.

Hi Steve,

I can appreciate that vent hole work. Those stitched vents really adds to your jacket's authenticity!

On those original USN jackets, that kind of finish work was last seen on L.W. Foster's 55J14s.

Cheers, Dave

That is one STUNNING jacket, I just love the leather. What size is it?

 

[STEVE S.]

It was made to my customer's measurements, but specs out at around a 46
