My last A-2 (hopefully) - Good Wear

[mulceber]

Kermit, I love it. It's a stunning jacket, and John did great work on that one. I know that you waited a while on this one - it's great to see that your patience paid off so spectacularly. Can't wait to see the fit pics on this one.

Kermit ..,.. That Arnoff is crazy nice !
I wish you long years of wear with that one .

That B-6 is on my jacket bucket list for sure. Need to buy a house up north first... Congrats on a real beauty.

Ok I won't keep the suspense going...
(especially since I took this picture 3 days ago, but I didn't have time to post it)

The jacket (a B-6 Arnoff) is absolutely gorgeous ! As I was telling John, it exceeds (by far) all my expectations.
The fit couldn't be better. John did a wonderful job.
I plan to do a full review with lots of detail, this jacket really deserves it.
Right now I don't want to take pictures because it's dark when I get home at night... but I'm sharing these two pictures John took before he sent me the jacket :

For all of the waiting time for a GW … when it arrives and you see it for the first time , you know the wait time was worth it .

I have this jacket lying on the top of a couch, and every time I walk by I am astounded by John's skill at shaping a collar.

Thing of beauty - is that one new, John?

Yes, I was not expecting to buy another jacket, but sometimes it is necessary to seize an opportunity.

Funny, I have the same size, but your collar is just a bit more pointed

It’s a fabulous wearing contract. I think it’s John’s best (coming from a Roughwear worshipper)

John, are we going to wear ours with the collar fastened like we did our ELC? Haha

Yes, and the waist knit tucked under like Hap Arnold!

It's the Italian HH.

Should have guessed - the tone is great for vintage russet.

Thanks for posting that one John .

Time to bump this thread and poke a stick at the "which contract have you ordered but is that still the contract you want?" question for those of us in the queue.
