Excuse the ****ty pictures, my main phone just died so I have to use this ****ty backup :p

Had this lovely G-1 style jacket from The Leather Shop/Sears delivered today which I got for a steal on a Swedish auction site.

I've been wanting a brown leather jacket for the colder days, and this one really ticks all the boxes! Super warm and cozy because of the shearling, and the leather is rather decent so I'm a very happy camper!

It's been awhile since I've posted. My pre-Black Friday purchased arrived Wednesday. I was able to put it to the test today. It's a shearling lined wool jacket. The shearling is plush, thick, soft, and brown. The wool is a soft navy blue. I've always wanted this color combo. I made the splurge when it was 50% off for BF.

Chicago today is in the upper 20s (-3°C) with a winter storm on the way. I walked around the neighborhood doing errands and I popped into Wrigleyville's Christkindlmarket. Half way through my time out I was sweating!

I love this and wish I lived somewhere I could wear this sort of thing. Who made it?

lol my wife saw the pic I posed on here so I was trying to her how we post what we wear for the day but all she saw was the fact that I was standing on her favorite rug with my boots on. Then she proceeds to give me a dirty look and walked away. So ….. yeah

Just tell your wife that you are part of an elite group of on-line men who take pictures of themselves to share with each other for self validation. Or something like that. It was actually a quote from a SF poster about 15 years ago, hahah.

They never see the jacket, only the crime scene

It's still crazy to me that this Vanson × Left Field Commando looks and feels equally good over a t-shirt or, as here, over my thickest shaggy-fleece sweater. The pile on this fleece is like an inch thick, but it works just fine. I don't understand Vanson's patterning… just magic. This combo is just as warm as my N1 deck jackets, but with better wind and rain resistance.

The commando pattern is great but essentially only for the really tall and long limbed among us.
