New orders from John/ Goodwear?

[JWS4th]

Has anyone heard from John as to when he might be taking new orders? I sent him an e-mail but no reply.

probably 2 more months

I'm sure plenty of people have been saving up ready to place their orders!

Now that I have the GW Dubow 42 in goat, I can ask John what other GW's would be of the same fit/measurements.
It will also work out cheaper, with postage to buy a new GW and have it posted to the U.K. than a ELC A2.

Steve, I'm so glad you like your new goatskin Dubow. The Crown zip is a very nice feature. John's new Indian goatskin is fantastic and the new Cable is very tempting!

My B-6 order is in the order line somewhere. I just hope it comes up before winter.

Have I missed something. Is he making B-6's ?

Yes he is, Peter.

It is not on his website though.

 

[Roughwear]

That's strange John, because the link was taken directly from his website under the section Photos of new jacket productions.

 

[John Lever]

You are correct, I meant that there is no ordering info like all the A-2 variants.

That's the way I read it ....

Good looking jacket, but so far it seems to be the only one ... and it's too big for me, and for Peter.

 

[Peter Graham]

Yes, very nice. It doesn't have the glaring contrast between the seam tape and the sheepskin that I so dislike in the standard ELC B-6 but the fleece is way too white. I assume that this is a test jacket as was the D-1 with the white fleece.

Yep ...

Did John give a price for the jacket ?

No, not that I could see.

I actually picked up this particular B-6 test jacket. The fleece is a bit whiter than on my Eastman B-6's and John mentioned that it is a lighter than he would intend for production. It is really a great jacket though. Very trim for a size 44. I am really interested if his B-6 and D-1 lines go to production.

I saw those ones AS, but I was interested in seeing how it fits.
