Great observations…waiting at pick up yesterday and found the different thread colours John used on my Dubow, if your happy can post up the pocket flaps and zipper tab for comparison Grant John has a new source for cuffs and lining , they are both notably a big improvement

I have his Chrome tanned goat also, superb stuff

Really nice Jan and great fit, Dave is really on it with the Navy jackets See those jeans are starting to break in, which ones are they?

Anyone else here got any “jungle boots” that they wear out and about Managed to find some Panama soled ones, issued apparently to a UK soldier in 1974 when he was training with the US military, will post up some pics later but be interested in seeing some images if anyone else has them

That looks spot on Jorge, the goat he is using is amazing stuff, what made you go goat with your Doob? Did you have any other combat clone work done, I will look at the pictures later but currently looking on my phone, halfway through my night shift with tired sore eyes!!

Err you aren’t the only one Jan

Looks nice Jorge

Great score Jorge, given the length of a lot of nylon jackets that certainly makes the N-3 very practical for wearing about

Drop him a PM, he isn’t always in here but he does pick up messages on occasion

I will add to the get well messages, make sure you do what the physio shows you

That B3’s beautiful, enjoy it

From memory there was a change in colour also before the swapped to the MK4 there was two distinct colours, the later having the coloured zips and padded pen pocket but yes the early ones weren’t green and are hard to find

Not sure but does sound reasonable, and know size 8 on me looks like a tent @taiAtari thanks for the images kind of shows the later pen pocket and dark zippers, not to mention the change in labels

Hmm I’ve found there sizings all over @Griffon_301 , possibly comes down to different makers perhaps but like you say very practical jackets

Took a chilly turn last night, not a military jacket but waxed canvas, Ship John Ramblin jacket
