Barn Jacket
This is a mystery jacket not shown in the catalogues. It has a leather collar, a plaid lining with two large pockets in the inside back of the jacket. Judging by the tag I’m guessing 1986-ish?

So much stuff never made it into the catalogs, wow.
Lining looks like the Clan Gwilliam tartan from the tartan shirts, yeah?
Hmm! Different fabric, but it’s a very similar print I agree.
