What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[newtojackets]

Vanson Cycle King. Been cold in Austin. Wearing my Ansai Heated jacket underneath. Nice and toasty.

A good Vanson (which yours clearly is) is one of the nicest jackets around. And at the price they go for, an absolute steal too

What if you painted storm trooper helmet on the back and a cross blasters will 1%ers people got triggered by it too?

Only if the force is with them.

Oh, sorry, forgot to reply yesterday. It's just that I've read an interesting article on the subject and it just made sense to me why it maybe kind of aged... Not well. On the other hand, there's a Black Rebel Motorcycle Club band so I guess it's okay.

Its actually one of my favourite contemporary rock bands. Took me some time to get the connection to the movie, though, but they did claim that the inspiration came from it themselves. One reason why I was curious if there’s a back-story to the name itself other than the gang—stuff.

Finally a bit warmer in London again so I can start wearing the leathers again.

Schott Cafecto again for me (my either jackets are barely getting any wear compared to this one lol)

Pairing it with some light-wash jeans which I don’t usually wear.

I keep going back and forth between whether I think it looks better zipped up or unzipped, currently leaning towards zipped

Absolutely. They are the best value by far. Some are stunning jackets and most I find to be as functional as it gets.

Awesome jacket. But cold?

And honestly, that forecast for Buffalo in February isn't that bad!

No it isn’t. And warming up into the 40’s by the end of next week.

I love this B6. Almost certainly because I bought it through Thurston and couldn’t be happier with the fit. The sheep skin is so soft and comfortable. I layer with a wool shirt and vest and am good down to 10 degrees with no thermal layer on my legs. I don’t think I’ll try it tomorrow or Saturday, -15F.

Same over in the finger lakes, little warmer. Could definitely be worse, but I’m still wishing it was motorcycle weather.

I vote unzipped

A tip from a fellow on facebook on a date code, bottom of the sunrise Talon zippers. This code dates the zipper to November 1939. Thanks to my Girlfriend for breaking the month down! On the bottom of the stop there is a K 9.

Vanson Enfield after some reshaping of the collar with water. Collar was a bit mashed up for my liking upon my receipt of the jacket.

Five Star HH aviator holding up well in the NYC winter. Body and sleeves are lined in wool (better than what i was expecting tbh) so very nice with a sweater. Currently my only leather jacket as i rebuild my collection with more versatile pieces. This is nice though as i can wear it as often as possible and really enjoy it all winter
