What do you do when the temperature hits 32°? Obviously you throw on a cross zip and take the doggo to the woods for a five miler

At 5'9" and 145lb the Japanese second-hand market was a blessing and a curse. I fell down the rabbit hole pretty far, but I pretty much completely revamped my wardrobe of jackets, shirts, and denim.

Jackets include that Mushmans (made by Electric Leather Studio), Sugar Cane, Mister Freedom (made by Sugar Cane), The Blurred Clothing Co, Westride, Studio D'Artisan, The Flat Head, Tenderloin, Jelado (vest), Dry Bones, Style Eyes, Blue Trick, and Freewheelers. I also repatriated Vanson and Lost Worlds.

What size are you? I’ve been losing weight steadily, currently at your same weight (145 lbs) and height. My weights have fluctuated over the years between 133-195 lbs, and I’ve been a 38 US. Maybe I can fit 36 US now.

Curious to know those in my size, in case they want to free up some space in their closets.

I always convince myself that I don't like or want a brown cross-zip and then I come across posts like these an go like "....****"
It’s taking some time to get used to. Love the cut. Love the proportions. Color is great. If there was one Everything the same but in black would it be my one and done leather? I think it might.

Hmm, I havn´t really cosidered this before.

I very much like how JL interprets this type. I always find Type 1´s slightly busy as mostly the eye is drawn to the pleats; JL amphasizes the pocket, which works well, IMO.

I´d actually prefer ANY trucker without pleats/front -stitching, but then it wouldn´t be a trucker anymore,m right?!
The pocket is pretty generous, at least compared to my type 3, as it can almost swallow my phone.

I like pleats :)

It’s my daily jacket. I typically wear it 3-4 days a week in the last (almost) two years (except those 80F and above days)

Been super stressed at work lately so I haven't posted as much, but today I rocked the Thedi, just can't get over how much I love this jacket(and maker overall), Thedoros must be a wizard(or just know patterns, but I'm not 100% sure witch true haha)!

Thanks. JL pattern is really comfortable and the construction is really spot on. I went through JL’s muslin fitting process so Damon really nailed it.

And your Thedi is really fantastic as well. It looked to be well loved.
