    James Dean Jacket

    I laughed when I found this old post, because it’s so sadly true. I spent the last week looking into getting a McGregor repro, because of the film and Jim Stark’s style. And then I keep reminding myself that I’ll just look like a middle-aged dad in a shiny red jacket. I may do it for me...

    What jeans are you wearing today ?

    I gave these a first cold wash today. Since they were sold as ‘one wash’ I was expecting a little colour loss but no major shrinkage. They shrunk quite a bit! The waist is actually an improvement and the length is still fine, but they are tightening the thigh and the opening went from 8.5” to...

    Who makes a decent James Dean Rebel Replica jacket that fits modern men?

    If I wanted accuracy and quality, I’d be all over this one: https://ebay.us/m/qYsL4l

    Who makes a decent James Dean Rebel Replica jacket that fits modern men?

    ^ Those are some cool examples I hadn’t seen before. I guess I’m torn between being a film nerd who wants to get something screen accurate for some low key cosplay, versus knowing it isn’t a great look on most of us and I’d be better getting a more modern/ conventional red fabric jacket that...

    BARACUTA G9 incoming

    It’s an interesting history, and how that brand co-opted it to ‘own’ it. Maybe the better analogy is Schott and the cross-zip? I have heard that their quality has improved a lot over the past ten years, though I haven’t handled the newer ones yet. If I were going to spend the big bucks, I’d...

    Who makes a decent James Dean Rebel Replica jacket that fits modern men?

    I finally got around to watching the Max Cady video on their Rebel jacket. It does seem like a well made and screen-accurate version! My search continues, though. I’d rather have something with a slimmer fit and in a less shiny fabric. I may even send my blue Tom Ford style Harrington jacket...

    BARACUTA G9 incoming

    I’m not sure you could call a Harrington jacket made by someone else a ‘knock-off’ - that would sort of be like calling another brand of jeans a Levi’s knock-off. Did you go to Jump The Gun in Brighton? They make a really good Harrington. If I were going to buy a Baracutta, it would be the...

    Beautiful hide and that looks like a custom fit!

    Who makes a decent James Dean Rebel Replica jacket that fits modern men?

    Kinda related to this thread … I know he wore Lee 101Z Rider jeans in RWAC, but there seem to have been several cuts of this model over the years. The current version has a straight leg 8” opening, but his look much wider than that when you see him in engineer boots. The top block also looks...

    What jeans are you wearing today ?

    Question for you all here: I’ve been happy with my Orslow 66s as my go-to jeans for a while, by now that I have engineer boots on order that 8” opening isn’t going to cut it. Looking at a budget options, the Bronson 1946 jeans are looking good. I’ve been very impressed with the trousers I’ve...

    If you had to wear just 1 pair of boots for the rest of your life, what would they be?

    Ha, I got into a few tussles in Dadas’ basement and the Hay Street Mall wearing my docs. Skinheads and bogans mostly.

    If you had to wear just 1 pair of boots for the rest of your life, what would they be?

    Heheh. It’s funny how Aussie subcultures of the 70s and 80s were so closely tied to footwear. Morrison that clothing, the boots or shoes defined your tribe (boat shoes, ripple sole desert boots, winklepickers, Doc Martin boots, Converse All Stars, etc)

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Looks like some serious 1990s shoulder structure there (English pagoda sleeevez?), but with a narrow lapel and high gorge.

    Engineer boots and jorts is the trending look for summer 2025!
