This started out as a customer jacket, but our button hole sewing machine didn't do well with this format of goatskin, so a different goatskin was used on that order. We finished this jacket, and John wore it a little.

The goatskin requested was very dark, and we were able to find this format. The hides are softer and of a thin nature, very much like an original we've owned from this exact contract (oddly enough, also in size 48). Otherwise, the parts used on this jacket are all superb in quality.

The mouton is vintage, and has great color, and the thread is dark brown, as originals were made with. The knits are a very durable wool, proper rib-rack, and the lining on this contract was actually dark brown, rather than the more common salmon red.

Our solution for the button holes was to stitch the same pattern with a regular sewing machine, using very small stitches, going around two times. These button holes have a keyhole shape, and are just as durable as the button hole machine would do, and are cleanly stitched.

The jacket would ideally fit someone in the range of 5'11" to 6'2" with a chest of 43-45", and a weight of about 190-215 pounds.
