What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Tom71 · Sep 28, 2019

This again, after some time.

Was away for a while, but I also had the misfortune that the zipper on this broke for no apparent reason (AND I I was being extra careful with the Hookless...). Happened in a rainstorm too.
Good thing is that this incident got me to experience Aero’s flawless customer service once again. Holly and Denny looked at the mess via photos and sent replacement parts. Had a new puller installed today, so here I go again, ready for the start of fall.

I know it’s been some time since you posted this, but I was literally speechless since seeing this (some business trips prevented posting too).

THIS is my all time favourite jacket on the lounge. The pattern is great to begin with, but the hide and your tweaks just turned it into perfection.

I do not need another jacket!!! (repeat 100 times).

Thank you sir. Carrie / TB had quite a bit to do with it. She is awesome to bounce ideas off of.

I do repeat that mantra, then see something and think, one more won’t hurt anyone...just one more.

Oh man I love that jacket!!

I thought it was in interesting find. Couldn't pass it by, in other words.

Bill Kelso Dodger. One of two jackets I bought brand spanking new. Maybe 6 years old. Liberty HH

Great looking jacket Terry.

The BK patterns seem fantastic but their leather seems to age crazy fast. Every jacket I've seen, even if it is only 3 years old, looks like it has been worn hard for 20 years. Any thoughts on that?

According to BK, their Liberty HH is designed to age quickly.

Rainy day, ready to go out for some errands.

As I understand, they designed the finish to wear this way.
Similar to the "tea core".

Will do, and I know you like a cardigan. Perfect for a damp chilly day. Since Dehen calls it a “sweater jacket” i figured it was ok to post here. Heavy business this one. Fit is just where i like it. Worsted and kinda scratchy. Another thing to break in.

Inspired by a current Bill Kelso Surrogate post. BK Dodger sitting in the backyard, enjoying a little "leather weather".

I love that. Going to have to look into one for sure. How’s the sizing? Seems like a good sweater to layer under?

Bfd70 · Sep 29, 2019

Website size chart is spot on. Potentially a little snug in the forearms if your descended from Popeye. In that case size up. Re layering: a standard dress shirt at most. If you were to try and wear it indoors with a flannel you’d have heat stroke inside 20 min. In fact, I probably wouldn’t consider it office wear unless you run cold. I do.

I guess I was wondering if rapid ageing would translate into a worn out jacket in under 10 years?
