What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Filson mackinaw on my lunch walk today. Also wore my Bates leather trousers that I got from @Monitor
I really like them, but I have no idea how to work them into an outfit. I feel like they are too much if I wear them with a leather jacket so I’m trying different combos to see what I like.

Did they ever look as cool on me!? I have regrets now. . .

Lol, I wear all my leather trousers with textile jackets, too. Not ready for the Wasteland. Yet.

They did look really cool on you. Chief reason I bought em.

Honestly, the day they arrived I tried them on shirtless with just a leather vest. That was actually pretty cool in a 70’s counter culture kind of way. But a bit too much on a guy that is turning 40 next year. Maybe a look for a costume party. I don’t dare share the pics here.

here with a Henley and leather vest. Much more decent.

Some tan suede up top could look good.
A trucker of some sort maybe?

How do you like it? Any close up pics would be appreciate when you got time. I really like to have this tea core leather boots to match my CXL tea core jacket, but I found the leather seems thinner than other RW and ages very quickly, what do you think?
I really like them. I have the Blacksmith in black prairie and Hawthorne muleskinner and they feel similar to me in thickness. The black prairie ages beautifully to me, not fast at all. I'll get some good pics of mine soon as I've been wearing them pretty solidly.

Ralph Lauren purple label B-2.

It's not an accurate repro as it doesn't have a horsehide body plus Ralph must have thought he couldn't sell his customers a winter jacket without pockets so two handwarmer pockets were added. Those pockets do make it a much more practical jacket and I think they've done a great job adding them while keeping the silhouette as close to original as possible. The important details are all there. I love it.
