Fantastic to hear, LV. To be honest, this is the best part of Goodwear, further this forum in general, beyond the material admiration of these beautiful jackets and what they represent, it’s the discussions, the sharing of passion and excitement between each other.

This is amazing to hear my friend, I love it! it is the encyclopaedia of details that he is, there’s no one like him. I am with you, between this forum and my conversations with Mr. JC is when I decided to dive deeper into the details, trawling through vintage photo albums etc. One thing in particular is always evident, people from this time had a far greater appreciation for basic elegance and function than we have today, it’s a fantastic time in history to draw inspiration from.

Not even a job, just a personal project - that was his flight jacket CD, which he still sells and is 100% worth the money (his commentary in it is great).

Yes , it made my day ++ !

Yep, it’s always that way when you hear from him.
