What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Kfz]

Hi did you make this jacket yourself? How did you make the shoulder smooth like a suit with padding? Amazing

I don't think so; the guy is just pretentious AF. I would like to see his smirk when BTC reaches its true value, ie zero. But by then he will sadly cash out. Sorry about the tangent.

congrats I like the shoulder slope and the exposed cuff zipper tape, and also perfect sleeve length, I love slant chest pockets and no handwarmers on racer jacket so I can't really comment on the pocket configuration haha, I think the back would need a lot of time to break in to look right.

Thanks! I agree, the back is gonna need some break in time for sure to settle down. That pic was with about an hour of wear. I’m a big fan of racers with no hand warmers as well, but my Aero covers that base, so I added them here.

I wore the Taylor's CMPD again yesterday, today it warmed up quite a bit but is still windy so I went with the Cooper A2 and the commando sweater.

I got this vintage-ish CHP jacket from a Swedish vintage site today, I bought it without knowing the measurements but the price was low enough to roll the dice I'm rather shuffed with how it fits(the arms could be a bit longer, but the rest looks good in my eyes).

Cheers!

Indeed! sometimes you just have to listen to the heart and press that "buy now button" and good thing happens(not always but sometimes)

Wearing my nemesis today… finally finished this cafe/J-100 mash up in 3.5-4oz CXL steer hide. I’ve always been interested in this hide, I’ve only had experience handling CXLFQHH. Color is burgundy and is really beautiful. Im very glad that I built a little extra room into this one as it is an absolute unwieldy beast of a jacket. This one took me twice as long to complete because getting these seams to lay flat was a workout. I have a new found respect for those who regularly use this weight of hide to make jackets. I feel like a spent a week getting my *** kicked by ninjas. Not cartoon ninjas, but the real ones. Do I want to make another CXL jacket? No thank you. My sewing machine is still weeping and giving me the side eye. Turned out alright though!

You did well. Glad to see more people given it a go in jacket building. Back on the day, there were many of us. In the US, very few remain or up to the challenge. I am retired living my dream. Good for you and please keep it up.

Wore both Vanson C2 and Enfield as leather weather has truly arrived in coastal Florida. Could not resist a little side by side photo opportunity.

You did real good there! I like the fit and while the arms could be longer it’s not an issue in my opinion. Very nice! do you know who the maker is and what animal it’s made from?

GWG Scrubbies Denim today. An old Canadian company bought up by Levi's years ago. Love this jacket; as I'm a sucker for vintage Canadian brands
