What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Jin431]

Actually probably just this jacket but with custom numbers. I’ve been wanting a suede trucker for awhile but they either are super cheaply made or way too expensive. Well super expensive for never having owned one before and not knowing what I wanted. Which is why even though I was pretty certain this would be too big I was ok with it. I’ve had jackets in the past where the numbers said they should or shouldn’t work but then they did or didn’t because of how the material drapes, how they were cut, and how they were stitched. So I said ok, let me see all that about this; I’ll either be surprised and all those factors means this will fit and if it doesn’t now I know and have a base to work off of. If Shawn quotes me a good price to redo this; then I’ll be getting just this but with the right numbers.

Got it, I feel the same with all these great suede jackets showing up a lot. That mustard colored FW trucker that Jake has or the rust trucker Aero that Robbie owns comes to mind with this cut. Looks like Marc just got a nice suede Levi's too. It just might be suede season time. Hope you get a good deal from Shawn at 5*.

The Sheene is V-shaped; it´s basically a Café Racer with a collar.

The HWM is boxy by design. The premier line retains the basic shape but slims it down, "as if" it had been designed in the 1930´s and not in the 1950´s.

The Sheene will actually have roommier arms with lower armholes and probably wider shoulders.

The description is much appreciated. I just prefer the look of the premier over the Sheene. The piece of leather trim at the bottom and ****** pocket zipper. Just need to combine the fit of one and the design of the other lol

We will be here. Your jacket research has been showing up again. You did great work on Lawrence leather and Rich Sher. Hope you stay around and offer more research

I think it´s worth reaching out to Aero on this. They might actually be able to to this. I remember an old thread from a member who did some sort of HWM/Sheene combination.
