What contract?

Still too warm for jackets here but 50’s are projected this weekend! I just couldn’t wait to show off this jacket that Burt rejuvenated this past week. Can’t decide what to do with it now, what a transformation.

Liking a post featuring a chaps armpit is something of a first for me

Does it have a label? It looks like a Star or an FEC, If it has a small 55j14 label it's probab;ly an early Star. Looks good rejuvenated!

Yes there was some discussion on this a while back , JC seems to think it was a pre issue star but the zipper pull would date it later than the 55J14 issue date and maybe was thought to be an over run.

have recently moved out of London down into darkest Kent and being without inet for a couple of weeks I'm just catching up with all the posts I've missed and as all my jackets are still somewhere in all the boxes haven't a photo to share today, but here's an old one on the original Sheeplined, which was identified by some of the knowledgeable guys here as the label was missing when I bought it over 40 years ago. Having a very large shed here I will be able to get reunited with my bikes that have been languishing in my daughter's garage for years as I did not have garaging in London

That was some bang up restoration & revival work Burt did on that jacket, @YoungMedic. It's an unadulterated beauty and it looks great on you. G-1s are such beautiful and practical jackets.

Gorgeous! How the breaking-in process on that jacket coming along, Jan? That goatskin JC is using is superb. I am truly enjoying wearing the Doniger. I'll report on it at some point.
