What jacket(s) are you wearing at the moment?

[ausreenactor]

There are jackets you order and wait for...

There are jackets you buy on a splurge...

There are jackets you have to have...

And there are jackets you earn..

Normally it takes a young subaltern at least 18 months of work at Royal Military College - Duntroon. Or four years with the Degree pathway through the Australian Defence Force Academy. It took me 30 years after first enlisting..

Mess Dress Winter!

At $700 you would think they could get the lacing right?

Will bling it up after a Dry Clean..

Ahhh it's wonky alright.....but at least it doesn't look like your a overripe grape like patrol blues....the "made in Vietnam" ones are horrible blighters which NEVER look good on any ADFA cadet no matter his/her physical shape (and you get the damned things tailored to your body and they still look horrid )

Italian HH with yellow tint
Brown knits
Brown thread
JC has developed of taking a closed-end zipper and converting it to a separating zipper. So, this one has a vintage Crown, and it works great.

Lovely A2 and cool Sikorsky

Monarchs and Donigers are snazzier. The Allies could have one the war two weeks after D-Day if Rough Wear made the collars a bit smaller and the leather was used for flight helmet straps....

Madness if you don't!

Haha well I have a AVI m422 coming my way as well as a Orchard G1 (I know I know....it's not a "desirable" G1 but it's similar to my Brill Bros G1 and it's in a big enough size to layer on a freezing cold Blue Mountains night around the campfire)
