What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[powerserge]

Jacket looks awesome @powerserge . A little slim in the chest, but incredible in every other way and looks perfect unbuttoned.

Thanks Jake! I’m hoping it forms to my chest as it breaks in and loosens up a bit. It definitely feels best when unbuttoned and I think looks better too

Really nice jacket, looks good on you!

Well, my first ever leather jacket is here! Himel Canuck in Shinki Med. Brown oil tanned. I’ve had it for about a week and half or so. Wanted to post some pictures and see what you lot think about the fit. To me the area that I could have gone a bit bigger is the chest. Other than that I think it fits pretty well and sure do love wearing it. I do have another Himel coming soon (Heron) and will make a dedicated post with initial pictures when it comes in.

That Himel Canuck is nice! What's the back look like when you button? It's tight, but it definitely fits you well.

That's quite the jacket for a starters jacket. It looks great on you. Beautiful color too. This might as well be an endgame jacket but I hope it's not

Congrats

This is a Pure Blue Double Black Sashiko Type III jacket, I picked up from Rivet & Hide. For fit reference, I measure 38" - this is a medium. I love the way this jacket fits, more like a shirt than a jacket. Beautiful denim, not stiff at all and very comfortable to wear.

Here’s a picture I took when I first got it whilst it’s buttoned up.

Thanks! I figured to go ahead and get what I actually wanted rather than settle for something similar. I’ve played that game before with boots and feel like you end up spending more money in the long run. The design and the color is what drew me in the first place. Knowing how it goes for everyone else here, it definitely won’t be the last lol. It’ll be a keeper for sure

From what I see... that jacket fits you perfectly. You scored!

 

[navetsea]

looks good from the back, doesn't look small at all, maybe just leather still crisp, and pulling at the button point on the chest

@powerserge that actually looks perfect from the back. As @navetsea said, the leather may just need to break in. From the back, it does not look too tight at all. Should break in nicely and be an absolutely incredible fitting jacket.

This being my first jacket made me quite self-conscious and unsure of how everything is supposed to be. But thanks for all the feedback and really glad to be apart of this community!

That’s a very nice jacket and more than that it looks absolutely great on you.

Looks great. Fit is certainly trim but nothing that should bother you if it feels alright for you.
A very nice first. The bonus is that it will age beautifully. Himel’ oil tan shinki is like nothing else.

It’s trim for sure but still able to move around with only a bit of resistance. I’m super excited to see how it will wear, pretty much haven’t stopped wearing it since I got it. I’m also interested to see how it will compare to my incoming Heron which will be in Med brown pigment finish.

Looks great -- congrats! If my Canucks fit that good, I would still own them.

Good call. It all looks very dreamy from NY, where we're freezing and covered in snow.

Yes, wear it, break it in, and don't give it a second thought in terms of fit. It is literally as perfect as any jacket I've seen here, both front & back. Congratuations on nailing it the first time!

As to the Carhartts, 100% agree. Especially as we've having much cooler temps now, the tighter weave of these "ridgid" models keep the cold out better, and they break in and fit great, never in the way. Plus - under $60 for a pair that will last for many years.

My third post and the third jacket... This time I am giving my Rainbow Country Sports Jacket some air in winter conditions. Just love the quality of the hide and the craftmanship on this one. No use for filters when the leather has that kind of glow! The shoes I bought from my good neighbour, Lars, at Østmoboots.
