This is medium gray right?

I think I have narrowed down my choice to an MDR with color preference in the following order.
1. Medium Gray
2. Black Lamb
3. Dark Brown Goat (if only because I like the idea of goat that might break in to something really cool).

The only reason for the wavering between gray and brown is that while I think the gray would be more versatile with my wardrobe, I fear it might be a little bit lighter in color in person than I would like and that it would end up getting dirty easily...while the classic black isn't going to have that issue.

Not fully decided on 3zip vs 4zip MDR. As an already bigger dude, I am not sure that I want the horizontal pocket lines (but it may also be an issue of only seeing photoshop mockups of the 4zip and tons of great pics of the real 3zip)

And the outside would be black lamb I presume?

Thanks again. I was also considering some of the lighter colors ( herringbone/ cracked pepper/ greys) but the Navy seems to be winning as it will presumably be less of an effort to keep it clean (or harder for spots/ marks to show anyway).

yes

I was going to order the brown goat A2 and changed my mind back to lamb right as I pulled the trigger. The contrast of the collar was throwing me off. Having a hard time envisioning the goat bomber.

ack I was all settled on my order; now I'm thinking about switching from brown to black goat

I'm so indecisive haha

god damn, so I think I may bite before cut-offs


2010 DR, black calf

or

black goat CWU?



leaning towards DR as I already have a brown A-2, would wear with thin gray hoodie underneath...


red DR would be sweet, but I think that's a luxury i cant justify right now

I think Drew suggested lamb, rather than goat, for CWU. Could deginitely see you in a black CWU. I know you ride but I think the CWU fits the rest of your look better.

i think you're right. im tempted to go with a stock 52 or 54 DR, maybe just a few tweaks. my A-2 was a little on the big side, so I hope this one is purrrrfect

I've tried lookin for DRs at vintage shops etc for a while now and I can NEVER get anything that fits well in all areas, theyre usually too cropped if they fit good in the shoulders and arms.

just soaked it last night,

Anyone have pictures of a real (not photoshop mockup) 4zip MDR?

Also, what zippers with medium gray--gunmetal or silver?
