RM Williams Cone Mills Denim jacket with plaid 100% wool lining based on a 60’s pattern of this iconic Australian brand.

I love this jacket, top quality materials and great workmanship made here in Oz.

They’re 50% sale at the moment on the online shop of RM Williams, get yourself a bargain if your size is available.
It’s an awesome raw denim jacket, I’m normally between size 38-40 and this jacket is size Small.
Fits great IMHO and super comfortable/practical.
The wool in the sleeves it’s a little itchy though if wearing a short sleeve t-shirt, but it’s ver warm on this strange cold day in the middle of Australian summer.

Really looks cool. I was about to start going down that rabbit hole and then remembered why i never wear the denim jackets i have. The majority of the time i am wearing denim pants. Some people can pull off the denim suit look, but i ain't one of them.
Re the Thedi: congrats! Looks like a good fit. Pictures of HM in it are what convinced me to pull the trigger on mine.

You’re right Grayland, Boxers are great!

They’re a bit goofy, hyperactive, they need a lot of exercising and they’re eternally in the puppy stage but it’s incredible how well they interact with kids.
My 8 month old boxer has a beautiful relationship with my kids, specially with my two year old son, she knows instinctively how to play rough with him but not to hurt him.
I totally recommend a boxer as a family dog with young kids, they have a beautiful nature.

Thanks mate, yeah I know what you mean, the double denim scenario is a tricky one to pull off but it shouldn’t scare away you from these type of jackets. The trick is too wear very different shades of the blue so it doesn’t look like a Texan tuxedo or different type of denim colour like solid black.
The colour of jeans in that photo is called Umber, they’re Gustins. With raw denim is easier to manage I think though, it looks better when new and when faded too IMO but at the end of the day it’s not the clothes themselves but how you combine and wear them.

Re- the Thedi is an awesome jacket, very impressed with the quality and feel of the leather and funny you mention that as your pics are what tipped me over to get HM’s jacket, you can’t get better fit than your Thedi in you!

It's an amazing color. I always thought octagon was more orange-ish, but I guess there is color variation in the different batches, just as with CLX. @Carrie @ Thurston Bros. Carrie, can you please tell us whether the currently available octagon is like this or if available, post a picture? Thank you!

Octagon is always tricky to photograph because that the orange hue gets exaggerated by the camera flash! The current batch is pretty similar to these photos, but I think Vanson may be on to a new batch at this point. The Octagon has varied more in years past, but now it comes through in a nice range that has great character and color.

I picked up this U.S. Wings custom-made black G-1 on the ‘bay for $79.95 Buy-it-now (my wife actually insisted I buy it since it was such a great price). It’s in like-new condition. The goatskin is thick, heavily pebbled and feels much like the heavy goat hide of a LW Raider jacket I used to own. The plush fur collar is real mouton; thick, warm and quite luxurious! The zipper is a cool matte black steel job that has a satisfying and robust feel to it as it engages. Jacket has a unique patterned lining which sets it apart from the average G-1. There are deep moleskin lined hand-warmer pockets behind the standard front patch pockets (I usually loathe side-entry pockets on a G-1 but since this one is not strictly mil-spec, I actually appreciate their comfort and convenience).
This jacket was custom-made for a celebrity athlete who had his name embroidered on the front left chest area. I sewed a 2 by 4 inch Velcro patch directly over the embroidery and now the embroidery is only visible from the inside.
All in all, a quality jacket with excellent goatskin and superb workmanship.
I wore it to work today with a Filson moleskin vest and it was quite warm.

I’ll bite, who is the athelete? You don’t look to have the height for it to be Lebron.

Nice jacket! I have a similar one with a vertical chest pocket. Always wondered who made it.

And now with properly rotated pics (hopefully)

HI, @ksozay ! from here it looks like many "double rider" jackets! I need to see more. Do you have pictures of the back? Pictures of the epaulets, the main zipper, sleeve zipper? Is there an inside pocket? How's the belt bucke? You can PM me yoy@worldonline.fr
It'll be a challenging pleasure to try and find out who's the maker
