So im really liking the style of this jacket. especially the one i found made by 686, i love snowboardin, anyway i dig this company because they make there things usually alot better fitting for my tallness of 6'2 and i love the quality of their stuff. and this thing has got a herringbone design. i love it. i found it for $60 online, only color i found is gunmetal. well thats that. i hear the design was introduced into the US military service in 1965 during the vietnam era. i'll probably put some groovy patches on it.
alright, got it ordered. found it on sale for 56$ + 7$ for shipping @moosejaw. i cant wait, its an christmas present to myself.
yeah man, its my favorite, i love the fit, its a size Large, and im 6'2" and the sleeves are just the right length. i could only find it in Gunmetal, so i have no idea where they get that almost black color... anyway its dope. i didnt think it had a lining but it reminds me of a baby bib or something haha, whats with the graphics on that thing. i might have to do a lil custom work on it and sew up my own lining inside... or maybe i'll just leave it. idk.
alright so after about 2 months in wearing this jacket... the only thing i hate and will soon change... is the damn buttons! they are plastic and were coated grey, and the color of the plastic is purple underneath the grey coating which of course slowly faded and washed out over time... so im gonna try and find some nice silver buttons somewhere and i'll be sewing them up... other than that the jacket is still in great condition!
