Choosing The Best Jacket

The Garrison was introduced and patterned in 2023 and was part of our newest fit re-patterns with improved sleeves, shoulders and general fit.

The Garrison is a longer bomber style and the most generous fit in the chest and torso. It is what we refer to as a CLASSIC FIT. The shoulders and armholes are graded to our standard size but it will feel looser overall and will have the longest body length, starting at 26" on a size 40. You can order one size smaller if you prefer a slimmer fit. There is a 1-2" taper at the base of the jacket and side cinch-straps will allow for some adjustment.

Although it's our Classic Fit, it is still properly cut in the shoulders and armholes for a more modern day look.

THIS IS GOOD IF: You prefer a looser fit in the torso and chest Or you like a longer jacket overall. Good for taller builds.

FIT TYPE: Relaxed Classic Fit. Longer Cut Back/Body Length

LEATHERS: Vintage Horsehide, Natural Horsehide, Pinnacle Horsehide, Italian Deerskin, American "INDY" Bison

The Raglan No.410 introduced for the first time in 2023. It is a vintage inspired design and fit with a slimmer cut but very comfortable in the chest and shoulders. The "Raglan" sleeve starts at the collar of the jacket and there is no shoulder seam, creating a design with a wider underarm area allowing additional space when wearing bulky layers. Raglan sleeves are more common is shooting jackets to allow ease of movement and additional comfort.

The Raglan No.410 is straight cut through the body but the elastic wool knit will cinch in at the waist and cuffs. The cut is very much a vintage inspired design with a short waist-length cut and a full size collar. Overall the cut is a little looser feeling, especially around the stomach but cut to look slimmer.

THIS IS GOOD IF: You like ease of movement and/or you wear layers underneath. Looser around the stomach and lower torso wih a shorter, waist length body. Good if you are shorter, tuck your shirt in or prefer a waist-length jacket with elastic knit bottom and cuffs.

FIT TYPE: Vintage Standard Fit. Shorter Body (24.5" on size 40) and slightly slimmer.

The Dean No. 210 was introduced and patterned in 2023 and was part of our newest fit re-patterns with improved sleeves, shoulders and general fit.
The Dean is our slimmest jacket, by design. Inspired by the original trucker style jackets, it stays true to those in the fit as well. Cut closer to your body with slightly narrower sleeves and a taper in the body. The armhole and sleeves are comfortable for most people, with good movement because of a superior fit pattern. It is our shortest jacket, designed to hit right below the belt.  

THIS IS GOOD IF: You like a nicely fitted jacket and/or you have a more athletic or slim build. Also good if you are shorter, tuck your shirt in or prefer a waist-length jacket.

The Indiana Bomber No.745 was first introduced in 2020. Designed as a variation of the G-1 Flight Jacket, with the same base pattern. We removed the patch pockets and installed classic welt pockets, along with a leather waistband instead of elastic knit.
