What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead]

thedi getting some love before it gets too hot for the shearling. It's a little boxy in the torso which is surprising because by the pure measurements, it shouldn't even fit me. But the leather has got a way to go to break in more and then hopefully I'll get a better drape.

No wonder it is your go-to jacket. Stellar!!!

Unseasonably warm weather allowed me to enjoy my trophy again, whilst my daughter is enjoying that fact that she can now ride her bike: wearing a mini shearling biker: leather jackets and cycling (possibly the wrong thread!)

I guess this shows that you have to take a seller's measurements with a grain of salt. It was stated as 22" pit to pit. I measured it today and it's actually 24" (stretched tight). My chest measures 41-41.5". Anyone in the UK or Europe (subject to red tape) want to work out a trade for something more suitable? I should put something in the classified.

That seems to happen a lot with p2p measurements. Nice jacket otherwise!

Let's play good news, bad news.

Good news: I bought @ton312's Bravestar sherpa lined jacked: it fits perfectly and pairs well with a henley. It also kept me comfortably warm on another mid-40s walk with the dog (pictured behind me, haha).

Bad news: It fits great! That means anytime he sells something I know it's going to fit me. I better lock up my wallet.

Just excellent!

Thank you @sweetfights

Is that a vintage find too? Great fit but that buckle is so strong! Nice

‍‍‍ duhhh. Haha. Thanks! Which one went out of biz? Freewheelers or flathead?

FL jacket again. I've been unlucky with bravestar (still haven't found the right size/fit) but lucked out with indigo selvage denim from S&S

Thanks, @Jin431. Yes, the Score jacket is a vintage find. And the buckle is from Japan, solid brass. I made the belt myself from a leather blank. It is not too difficult, and with the right hardware one can have a nice belt for a fraction of the cost.

why make so many belt holes though, I have similar plan to buy blank belt myself and a hole puncher, but I will only punch one hole on it.

Got it. I've been weary of vintage jackets but seeing all these nice looking cafe racers really got me thinking! Thanks for sharing the info about the belt, never knew you could get a leather blank. Does it involve stitching around the buckle? Super cool buckle, that's the nicest one I've seen.

I haven't yet looked up railcar but that might be a good idea. Are they true to size? The black indigo 19oz jeans look great

Lee Trevor. I know it's too large but what can I do while having such a cool jacket at home, other than wear it.
