Hi folks.
Need some help fron the USA guys.

I stayed in the states for 2 years 25 years ago and always cursed myself not bringing the traditional canvas ranch work jacket with me. I am trying to find it online but are not sure what to look for, and where. The normal workers class agricultural one, not a fashion model. Any leads please.
 
Either of these what you remember? They’re both of the vintage you mention. The Carhartt was once the color of the LL Bean but it’s had a harder life.

Carhartt is the standard for those. Carhartt is the most popular and is of high quality. Simply look through their catalog. There are other similar knock offs by different companies. Some are good quality and some are not.

How do you know that the party is a formal occasion? The Carhartts are washed.
 
Filson makes several waxed variations.




 
Check out murdochs.com or some of the other ranch outfitter shops. All should have photos of many different styles. Good luck
 
Another version of the jacket, I wore this Carhart for five years in a melt shop back in the '80s, lined with a hood. IIRC, it was a flame resistant version. Can't bring myself to throw it away and still use it for really dirty jobs.

Here's the target for the NorthForks - 25yds off a bag, iron sights. Hunting leopards over dogs the range won't be more than that.

Flew in an airshow in Smyrna years ago, beautiful country.

Best regards,
