    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Many years ago I was trying to grow a mustache and it was coming in slooow. A guy that I worked with was pretty funny and in an open section of the office says “ hey, nice football mustache”! I told him I had no idea what he was talking about he said “yeah, football. Eleven on each side”!

    The length of the jacket? No… that length seems right for my shape which is long arms, long torso, shorter legs. My lineage is not long out of the trees.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    A leather jacket of this type, Magnoli U-boat, LW Peacoat, etc. carries something inherently sinister in its appearance that can't be separated from the jacket. I enjoy wearing mine but I try not to lose site of the fact that the jacket speaks to those around even when I don't. I've made an...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    You have posted pics of a few dozen jackets during the short time I've been paying attention . None have been sharper than this. Clean lines, interesting textures, bespoke fit and a universal design that would look at home in all but the most formal setting.. This is the most interesting...

    The jacket had a belly in it. A ton was taken out of the midsection.

    Wise words to live by (jacket related)

    There’s no value in owning a jacket you don’t look forward to wearing and many have a jacket in the closet that’s as interesting as a pair of clapped out old sweatpants. Acquire fewer and better.

    He does. Phenomenal worker but if he's not worked every day there will be hell to pay.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    My profession requires that I maintain a somewhat lower profile than many however, in the context of jacket alterations on something known to be a top drawer product there's at least a minimum explanation due and maybe a fit pic. Many years ago there was a cook on TV named Graham Kerr. Called...

    Those boys need to meet the men from Velcro! I hadn't noticed any uncomfortable zipper placement so far but may now... thanks for that! :D

    Last post of my m/c themed jackets. This one's a Roland Sands Design in a size L... which fits exactly like a 46 in a Schott / Dainese / Vanson manner. The unique thing about this jacket is that the exterior leather is not just thick and soft but it's actually velvety. A very unique hand to...

    Going the extra mile to nail a period correct look! Very nicely done!

    I'll toss one more m/c jacket up here tomorrow and then move on to casual, peacoat, etc.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    And a third jacket for tonight. It's my latest and I just got it from a buddy that takes really good care of his stuff. He's the same guy that also has a Vanson Brando that I wanted to know roughly what it was worth but truth be told I can't wear them. They look perfect on some guys and on me...

    The second is one I've had for quite a while but don't wear that often as it's a tad loud and doesn't blend anywhere, ever. The leather is thick and it feels like you're wearing a shell. I wouldn't wear it on a bike but it's a m/c themed jacket that's fun and it's hard to be taken seriously...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I haven't posted in this thread that I recall but I've worn each of these three jackets over the last couple days. Each of these masquerade as motorcycle jackets and that may be true for some but I've ridden from Deadhorse, Alaska to Ushuaia, tiera del fuego, Argentina and most of the way...

    Partially Shot Schott... What Would You Do?

    I have not. Have you used them before by chance? Thanks. On it. Monday.

    Partially Shot Schott... What Would You Do?

    Second pic looks black but is not. This jacket is a dark brown with seams and wear areas that are a lighter shade of brown. Size is irrelevant in this context but just to toss it out there, the jacket is a size 46.

    Partially Shot Schott... What Would You Do?

    One of my older Schott's is nearing that phase where it needs some attention. I have no skills with a needle and thread and doubt that I'll ever change that. I went by my favorite leather shop and they said new liners start at somewhere around $180 IIRC and that zip choices could be half as...

    Nice jacket. Wish I had one like it. I have seen you in multiple jackets that all look great on you. There's one I haven't seen you wear that in my mind is the perfect jacket to compliment that sense of presence that marks your arrival in the room. It's a stout leather black peacoat. Maybe...
