Outstanding craftsmanship and 100% steer hide material exude durability and timeless style. The sewn-in elastic band in the lower back adds a nice touch of shape and comfort. The warm plaid inner lining is practical and aesthetically pleasing, making this jacket perfect for colder weather.
One of my favorite features is the two horizontal breast pockets with original Ritsch zippers and the strategically angled hand pockets. These enhance the jacket's authenticity and offer practical storage spaces. The inner pockets, one open and one closable, are a convenient addition, reflecting their historical use for service pistols and navigation cards.
Overall, this jacket is a fantastic homage to Heinz Bär and a great addition to my collection. Whether you're a history buff or appreciate high-quality, historically-informed fashion, this jacket is an exceptional choice. I highly recommend it!
A big thank you to Mr. Mehringer and the talented artisans at Noble House!
