What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Wore the Bronx this morning when I drove my son to school. He looked at me and said, “papa, I think you’ve lost weight because that jacket is too big on you.” Lol. He’s right. He made me realize that I don’t wear it because it fits me like a tent. It looks ok with my arms down, but the upper body is too wide. Would you agree?

I agree. It’s one size too big. Two if you go for the Ramones look…

That’s a good point, but for some reason I feel self conscious when I wear this one. I think it only looks good when it’s zipped up. I got it over 20 years ago, maybe it’s time…

Or just hang on to it in case you put on some weight again (not that you should…). Such a cool jacket!

Thanks! I think it’s a beautiful jacket and that’s why I’ve held onto it all these years. Sad truth is I only wear it on cold winter nights in my family room in front of the TV. Lol

I agree that if it isn't something you're going to wear out then there is little sense in hanging on to it.
That’s kind of what I’m thinking, but in all my years of collecting things tend to go into the collection, but never out. Lol. I always seem to find a way to justify keeping stuff that I probably should let go.
