What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead]

Banana Republic suede trucker from yesterday. And the last in my collection (except the shearlings which are packed up), classic HD roadster.

Was fun taking all these shots from same vantage. Gave me some perspective as I'm able to compare side by side now. Liked a couple more than I thought. Couple others are redundant no doubt. Still trying to shrink from like 17 to 12. Doubt it.

So damn good. This reminds me exactly of my Phillips jacket (that @Marc mndt discovered was made by Rich-Sher). Shawn got the collar perfectly right. He should rename this model the Rich-Sher Halfbelt.

Good to be 12 1/2 years old again, whenever I want. 1997 still going strong!

Super light, super strong Canvas! Orange cotton, Black Nylon.

Went out to this fancy, new, overpriced night club this Saturday so tried to cover up for being a failure with no personality, future or income other than from reselling clothes on the internet, with 100% thrifted tho otherwise overpriced junk and it actually got me enough compliments & drama to hold on to for the rest of the year.

Maybe, just maybe, all this pain is worth something. . .

Sleeves are long but otherwise I couldn’t be happier with this Freewheelers La Brea // thanks to Jake @almostvintagestyle for passing on this gem

Cossack/Menlo jacket by Whitefeathers (Austria)
Italian Horsehide

We don’t see Whitefeather enough around here.

I love their designs.

Whitefeathers

I'll have to stop by there sometime when I'm in Vienna and have some time.

Definitely, and I’m sure you’ll find some exciting stuff out there

It looks great on you!

I’m thankful, as I’m sure many are, for the dip down to a high of 60 today. Also happened to be just sunny enough to tan my lily white hides.

 

[JCSD]

It looks great on you!

Thanks, man!

Everything I love about vintage Horsehide and halfbelts summed up in one jacket. This one has moved its way into the all time favorite spot. No issues with length. A rarity.

Ponyweather today...

My recent wears. Soon it will be too hot even for the vest, but at least things are cool after storm fronts come through.

Spring is trying to show it's signs of coming here to Iowa. Not the best resolution on these photos, but shows how the LW J23 and Aero IR are developing in April...

That LW is just outstanding Randy. Your best fit, ever I believe.

This jacket DID turn out *****en. Particulary nice graining on that left side.

@ton312, Being that I also have one of the referred to P66 HBs (mine is Steerhide) and have never been able to find out much about who might have made them---could you kindly direct me to the thread where @Marc mndt determined the maker to be Rich Sher????? Somehow I missed this revelation!!! An interesting development I need to get more info on if possible.
