What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Motocann]

I'm not actually wearing this out and about because it's too hot, but I want to give a shout-out to this Sears Leather Shop crosszip.

Like so many items in my closet (hats, shoes, jeans) I could have stopped at this one. Instead I went all the way around the world with leather only to rediscover this last week and say, "gee... this really is a great jacket."

Just at 4 pounds without the belt (previous owner cut it off).

I don't love the glossy finish but I love the jacket so I'll keep it just like it is. The fit is amazing, the leather is buttery-soft but substantial, the hardware is meaty and functions great, the interior is inviting and comfortable and I love the arm rolls in this thing.

There's not much appreciation here for these 70s and 80s Sears Jackets but if others are like this one, then I'll vouch for them. Absolutely worth the $100 I paid for it and seriously, I could have stopped here (not that I'm complaining about my collection, just saying that the quality on this Sears is satisfying enough).

yes, I would say the fit is just right! That sheen is pretty typical of leather from that era. I think if you wore it in the rain a few times it would knock that sheen down. BTW, if you're ever interested in selling it, let me know!

Weather has turned brisk in in the SF Bay Area so dragging out my Brooks gold that I’ve owned since the late 70’s. Probably dates about 10 years earlier, bought used for $10 in a Cambridge, MA thrift.

Finally Friday

Still crazy in love with this Thedi, maybe it's because I ordered and customized it myself but there is something with this beauty that really makes me feel like a million bucks(so much I really want another one but in black haha).

Cheers all and have a great day!

Finally got my Schott horsehide good and wet in the rain. It’s certainly helping the long break in process, but it’ll probably be going into the back of the wardrobe now until autumn.

Ah got you, assuming it’s a vintage jacket then? I was under the impression HD don’t make their own jackets anymore

Oh, sorry I thought you asked about the brand. I have no idea who the manufacturer is but it’s made in Korea.

Ah got you. Looks great; which is why I assumed it was one of the big brands

Cooled down enough to wear the new Thedi. The Mahogany is very similar to Espresso but with some red undertones. Cloudy today so a little hard to capture the color.
