Is there anyone else who would love to have this jacket? Wish I got into IH a few years ago…

Awesome shots! Diggin that indigo transfer  & great fit on the jacket @Morose_Penguin.

Thanks, it doesn't get much wear - the weather was the best it's been for a while - perfect opportunity. It will have to be washed tomorrow though…

Holy shit, I didn't realise this had ever been a thing. Just read this entire thread… It's an absolute beauty. What price a comeback for S/S19 @Giles and @Alex ?

[Morose_Penguin]

It was well past time for a wash…

This is one of those items that the owner needs to be a gentleman about owning, so don't rub it in our faces… LOL!

[Giles]

Should I do another run?

Hell yes.

How many jackets constitute a run?

I expect these would sell, but not like crack brownies.

Not a real big Duck fan,but I’d be all over that. Wouldn’t care how long the sleeves were,cause I’d be riding with it.

I'm the opposite: not a huge riders style jacket fan, but I love me some duck!  I would be on the fence if this came out.

Yes please!

@Giles:

I’d definitely be all for a re-run on this one. Perhaps with some slightly modified “upgrades” (ie two way zipper, slightly lengthened body length)

+1 for rerun and modified length

So, these next shots are after the 2nd wash. Which was about 3 hours after the first… The red cotton chest pocket? It turns out that it really likes to lose dye. No problem I thought, it doesn't look like it has stained. Of course, the duck was still far to dark due to the hand wash. After it had dried however... There was a massive pink stain all around the pocket opening on both sides of the jacket.

There followed variations on the theme of "oh shit, I've just ruined this jacket".

After I'd calmed down, I washed it again...

And on the prospect of a possible resurrection  - navy duck with copper hardware??
