That oxford wool colorway is really nice and it helps that it has raglan sleeves.

Flieger, not ultra heavy, but the leather is not lightweight glove leather. It is not buttery soft

The knit cuffs are pretty heavy. It's lined but not thinsulate or down or anything. The white is bright, but I think it sets off the colors very well. The cream white is nice as well, but I think it would have been duller on your jacket.

fit is much better than i anticipated, and they all look great. Black sleeves/grey body is definitely my favorite, and I'm kinda choked I didn't order one.

i hope that knit collar settles.

they all came out great. in an ideal world i'd own two of these and make one a little more out there. but i'm glad i went safe with this one.

again shoreman, thank you. i'll take fit pics once it comes in.

oh super! whats it say though? i'd ideally have wanted something real tongue in cheek. but if it say jo3 b i suppose i wouldn't have TOO much trouble explaining to curious friends that it was just my name on a message board dedicated to viewing other men in traditional garb?
