Nice one, Trini. Reminds me of my Whisper jacket (no lining, except for the arms; probably no shoulder padding?) Specs on the fabric?

Thank you, Siwash. I try to make the most of them.

Who makes/carries that cloth? Is it from a Drapers book?

Some 3 roll 2.5s buttoned up (which they didn't really like):

Maybe it's just me, but the buttoning point on that jacket looks really high, and the spacing between the buttons looks unusually large, too.

^^ Now that you mention it, the button spacing does seem large. The bottom button seems to be at the right place, in line with the pockets, but the middle and top button seem unusually high. What do you think abut this

The other you mentioned for me it≠s a full 3 button one, not a 2,5. I avoid those.
