Complete with a camera strap strap.
The contrasting bellows are tacky IMO.
No strap strap/epaulette for me: I always wear cameras/shoulder bags across my chest anyway.
The bellows aren't contrasting: they are just reinforced at the top in self material (because they hide popper buttons). Or are you referring to the blue piece of cloth in the photo? That's just a little trial pocket we made to test the design of the pockets!
The epaulets would be a nice feature I still think. You could always make them removable too with the attaching button under the collar?
Just a small loop at the end of the shoulder, with a button on the opposing end. they would be hardly noticeable if done well. IMHO you must embrace something of a militaristic theme for a jacket like this in the first place as otherwise it will just look like a bastardised odd jacket. Are you also not including at least a removable throat latch?
I thought these two jackets might be helpful for ideas: http://www.cinqueclassico.com/shopping/products/detail.php?product_id=2598 and http://www.cinqueclassico.com/shopping/products/detail.php?product_id=2549. Not exactly what you're looking for, but not entirely dissimilar.
Ah four symmetrical pockets with flaps, I like that. Not so keen on the asymmetric looking travel jackets posted earlier. Myself, I wouldn't do buttoned shoulder strap things(epaulets), makes looks like a soldier, too military IMO.

first one is extremely sexy. symmetrical may be boring, but in my early paying-attention-to-clothes days, i have found that i am kind of boring. why, oh why, do i not have $1100 to spend on a travel jacket?
