Some nice looking jackets Shawn !
I am tempted go an AN6552, but if there are more G-1's in the pipeline, should I hang on ?

I am also interested to know if the Poughkeepsie's flap pockets snaps have been "corrected".

I'm deeply impressed how much effort @Shawn Ali puts into his new projects ...

Pretty rare these days that a manufacturer drills that deep - imho

As for the color of the blue deck jacket the blue is totally off - i still own a bunch of 1940 foul-weather hats in the correct color - will send you one if interested as a sample for the color and fabric

One quick question, hopefully the right place to ask, on the Weber D-1, is the .8-.9mm fleece thickness a typo? I can’t imagine it’s less than 1mm thick lol.
