Got one Filson "Chore Coat" in tin cloth and some sort of Filson Jungle Jumper in the next level down. Need to get the latter fixed but wear the former almost every time it rains, if it's not freezing outside. I've also a couple of Mackinaws and one Double Mackinaw. Long as you avoid the...
I've more'n a few Car Coats, mostly Aero's and one or two no names. I wear them in place of rain coats on occasion. Also in the the Fall and Spring when I need more protection than a short jacket can give I'll put one on. I definitely think that the lighter leathers are best unless you don't...
"Sinners" - IMAX - Sometimes, despite your best efforts... the hype can git ya. I admit, I loved the trailer but when the usual curmudgeons on YouTube tell you xyz is the greatest film since (fill in the blank) you at least have to see what the title is. Being a musician and being able to play...
Great review, as usual. Also a VERY interesting subject. Makes me wonder... is there a "middle ground" between the shame that kills (ie drives some to kill themselves) and no shame AT ALL? The "all or nothing" shame that characterized most of America's existence served a purpose. It was...
Wow, talk about PTSD! I've a Double Breasted Barnstormer custom made from Aero. When I first got her the coat was so stiff and button holes so small that the leather "gum drop" buttons literally exploded from the force needed to get them through the button holes. Those buttons were replaced...
Being in the STILL frigid Northeast, I base my outfit of the day solely on the temperature and Windchill outside. It's a loooooong dog walk in the morning. I need to be snug and warm. As I age my blood seems to be getting thinner. Warmth and comfort are EVERYTHING!

1. Am I going black or brown.
2. If black, then black leather, jean or wool with black shoes/boots and head gear.
3. If brown, then anything brown or green in all phases is acceptable jacket, coat or vest wise.
I alternate every other day. I never wear either 2 days in a row.

Sheesh! A guy takes a two week break from the jacket/outerwear forum and all hell breaks loose. I'm halfway through and I'm still confused.... somewhat. I won't comment (if ever) until I've read EVERYTHING posted. But in that I buy most of my jackets used or bespoke new I don't know if this...
The dog's name is "Ruby". She's a "hand me down" dog. An Aussie Shepard who was being fostered by a woman who had 4 Aussies already and couldn't handle a 5 as she came down with lung cancer 3 or so years ago. So... since I was retired and had always wanted a dog, I guess I was elected. One of...
