Eaton Jacket and set up.
Here is my before pics for a my Eaton jacket that I'm working on.

side shot

back shot

First impession is the jacket is really light. No tails to alter, but for the price, not bad.

So, what kind of work are you going to do to the jacket? My advise is to keep it simple. Just add a few silver buttons.

Pretty much all I planned on doing was adding the buttons and some eppilettes.

Epaulettes are only needed if you want to wear a fly plaid. I really like the comtemporary look of the jacket without the epaulettes.

Somewhere on this forum, is a post where sombody wove their own epaulettes, but I can't find the right search words to lead me to it. Anybody else find it?
