Thanks everyone, first jacket I have bought from new, and as soon as it turned up I thought, yep, thats it. Just nice to have it confirmed.

Chamboid, very sharp all around- congrats!

Decide on which GW to order now?

 

[chamboid]

Haha. No. I've though about every jacket, canceling it, thought about just getting one, thought about everything but unless I do it now it'll never happen, and who doesn't want a Goodwear

(Think, for now I'm going for the two Monarchs A-2 and M-422) The monarch style in a lighter russet will compliment the Kelso well by being different. No collar stand, collar shape, pocket shape etc.'

Check out Andrew's ("Roughwear") Monarch in dull russet. A thing of beauty.

Hey Ben
thats does look nice and fits you well, lovely colour too, will be even nicer once aged/beaten up a bit! Just a good amount of wear and time, not suggesting for one minute you hot water treat it - Ive never had the balls to try that!! You gonna keep the collar studded down? Been a topical comment here more than once - I more often dont but on occaison do like today (my 80's ELC house).
cheers
Wayne

I just like the collar done up, especially with a collar stand. Just looks smart. For a more
Relaxed jacket I'll grab my G-1.

But that is one reason I went for the GW Monarch a-2 in the end Aude it looks so good with the collar done up and and undone.
