Question:
How many jackets does a Fedora Lounge jacketeer need?

Answer:
Just one more!

Can you wear any of them in Sydney weather? I lived there for a year and never wore more than a shirt.

Actually, yes.
Admittedly the jacket wearing season is short (say 10 weeks a year) so these beauties really don’t get much wear. Certainly not enough to break in even one jacket.

Was thinking, "man, that collection is far out; looks more impressive than anything I've owned" then I realized I once owned that Highwayman! Whoops! One of the mind-eroding effects of jacketeering.

Yup

One of the best there!

Lovely collection. I'd like to see more pictures of the Connolly Highwayman. I have a Highwayman in that leather, albeit a traditional Highwayman, not the zip sleeve version.

It’s really a beautiful jacket & in a brilliant condition.

Ain’t that the truth!
Same with guitars, motorcycles and anything else that floats a boat...

Any chance of ever doing fit pics/posting measurements of the US-A Barnstormer? IIRC on the site the sizing's only listed in S,M,L format.

Sold it a while back. I prefer MC jackets.

The one I had was a customized version of the jacket. Additional pockets and what not. I think he tweaked some measurements too. I was the 2d owner.

Perfect working order, sounds great. Useful when the power is out, too.

I'll get around to better pictures of the jackets at some point.

Truer words were never spoken!
I started playing guitar last August and already my collection of guitars is a sight to behold!

It all started with a single phone call at the beginning of the 21st century. Now it's gotten to the ridiculous stage shown here. The newest acquisition is not shown. Will need to do better pic.

It looks like you were having a hell of a party just before “The snap”, except not even 6 infinity stones could destroy all that quality leather lol

Bern1 · May 5, 2019

Yes, great party! My wife laughing as I took all the jackets out of the closet at the same time for the first time. Some time ago she gave up putting anything in that closet.

It’s not much of a collection and I left some I know I’m going to sell out but I’d call this my core at this moment in time. I like posting in this thread because it’s fun(ny) for me to see how it changes. Only two jackets pictured below are off limits for me to ever sell. Care to guess?

Very close Carlos. The Bates is absolutely correct and the N1, yeah I should’ve said 3. That’s my everyday’r in winter.

Add the Blue IH type 3. But my initial guess was the same as Carlos.

I’ve got to redo my collection photo. Had the chance yesterday after returning from Europe. When I travel for more than a day or two I place all my favorite jackets in the back of the closet where they are “safer”, then rearrange them when I get back. Another sign of our sickness?

I am moving from a 5th floor flat to a house pretty soon, and i have to say that i am pretty worried about leather jacket theft or leather jacket vandalism...
I feel like i now need to invest in a "safety closet" where all my jackets can be safe when i am away.
Imagine coming back home to find that someone has broken in and slashed every single jacket you own! It would kill me!
