BRETT VIBERG AND HIS HIMEL BROS. HERON 1929 A-1

Finally, a fit pic of the amazing Himel Bros. Heron 1929 A-1 on Mr. Brett Viberg.  Look at the great wear on the sleeves.  This jacket will soon be mine.

Here he is with Mr.Onozato, Editor in Chief of Free&Easy


Made of goatskin or horsehide, this is a simple smart A-1 cossack jacket. The full grain vegetable tanned leather sports military style buttons, gimped button keyholes, deep cotton lined patch pockets and shawl collar. The back panel is a single piece of leather with nickel d-rings for adjustment of the v-gussets.

The buttons close up under the chin with a wind proofing chin strap. The jacket is lined in the finest mole skin cotton flannelette and black cotton cloth. Each jacket is bench crafted by one tailor from start to finish. Each piece carefully selected for grain pattern and hand cut and skived for a finished look. The contrasting cotton topstitch ensures strong long lasting tailoring. Finished in the best manner for smart appearance!

Model:  HG-29, HH-29
Suggested Price:  $1,450 CAD / $1,481 USD
