Waxed Tartan Hunting Jacket

Details

Waxed Tartan Hunting Jacket.

Opening day of pheasant season, South Dakota, north and west of Mitchell. The sky is spitting snow; the ground is frozen.

Maggie is all worked up (German Shorthairs get that way). Perhaps she watched me settle the matched pair of Stephen Grant sidelevers in the back seat next to a case of RST shells.

She knows if we can't hunt with a shotgun more than a hundred years old, we don't hunt.

The birds will sit.

So many things could have set her off. But I'd put my money on the fact that she's noticed I’m wearing her favorite jacket.

It's my favorite, too.

Waxed Tartan Hunting Jacket (No. 7120). Authentic recreation of an early 20th-century duxback hunting jacket cut from traditional tartan pattern wax cloth from British Millerain. Corduroy trim collar and sleeve facings. Double waist flap pockets with authentic shotgun shell bandolier under the flaps. Slash handwarmer pockets. Pleated chest pocket. Bi-swing for better movement when shooting. Pheasant-sized traditional game pocket. Interior treated cotton game bag with clips and hung lining. Vintage style hunting buttons. Imported.
