I had been considering a couple things but finally jumped on them:

I had been staring it down for months, trying to justify having the two piece PoW flannel and buying the three piece. The blue overcheck and the fact that I have been wearing my 2 piece PoW suit a lot made a difference for me.

For such classic checks with regular color it's a no brainer and would probably last you a lifetime providing your body measurements don't change. It took me way longer to justify spending that much on a single sportcoat gun club as it may go out of style and it better be sewn by the older master tailor there. Nowadays I've been getting sportcoats from cheaper sub $600 brands like SuSu, Boglioli, Benjamin, etc. Unlike casual jackets they are harder to resell afterall.

I have *almost* bought this about a dozen times already. I think you would wear it well.

I am in the same boat. Have gone to this jacket probably 50 times. It just screams casual cool to me. I appreciate your faith! Maybe Greg or Kyle can provide a fit pic tomorrow. I know it would really help me off th fence.

I’ve got the same suede but in the Manila rider jacket. Can’t recommend JG suede enough. Supple, soft, sturdy.

Your picture doesn't seem to have the same yellowness of the pics on NMWA's site. Which photos do you think are closer to what you see in real life (understanding every monitor displays differently)?
