UNIFORM LA CHILLICOTHE WORK JACKET Drop, going on right now.
Uniform LA's Chillicothe Work Jacket is an elevated take on the classic Detroit Work Jacket. Made of ultra-premium 14-ounce Japanese canvas, it has been meticulously washed and hand distressed to replicate vintage workwear that’s been worn for years, and available in three colors.
This just dropped today. If you missed out on the preorder, there are some sizes left, but they won't be around for long. Check out the remaining stock here
Good luck!.

I think these will look pretty bad ass Grats.Deets on my Bonafe MTO.
I figured the combination of the good exchange rate and the waiver of the 15% MTO fee made this a "do it now" proposition.
Instead of a staple like a suede chukka, I decided to use the MTO opportunity to get something I have wanted for a while but struggle to find available in RTW offerings: a blue balmoral boot.
I get so much wear out of my two pairs of blue dress shoes, that a blue bal boot would be a useful addition to the rotation. The starting point is this same model
Bonafe boot that Watchman chose:
And the goal is to get something along the lines of these EG Shannons:
And to that end, I selected #11. Vitello Bleu for the upper, with a request for heavy antiquing:
.
And #15 Hidro Oceano (suede) for the shaft:
4 speed hooks to replace the topmost visible eyelets, double leather sole with metal toe taps and a "Derby" medallion round out the trim details. Boots will be built on the 363 Mod last.
Had to restrain myself to order one pair only, as there is a second design really calling my name.
I think these will look pretty bad ass Grats.
I also did an EB MTO using the blue vitello. Figured it was time to get me a pair of blue shoes.
This thread is gonna be ridiculous in about 3 months when all these MTOs start coming in!
Just paid my depost for EB Balmoral boots!

Thanks to they guys at Skoak for their amazingly responsive customer service and to all you StyleForum guys for inspiration.
The wait begins!
FYI, the last photo is not bracken. It is a set Crispin model and thinking back that might be closer to dark brown then bracken.

Congrats on the shoes (and the success with the PO)
Headed to your part of the world tomorrow for a little birthday trip, BTW. Hope the nice weather holds.
Consistency is good.@JubeiSpiegel -
Nice new shoes. I like the "new" dark oak! I think EG strives to be more consistent with this key color. Enjoy the double monks.
Cheers.
