What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

I cannot get over how much better this jacket looks than its waxed canvas sibling. Spectacular.

That’s it! I was actually looking out for the canvas version, but had to admit to myself that I would probably not put much wear into it.

This is my first Langlitz-made jacket too, and I am really happy with how it all turned out (after 18 months wait).

I put this one in the classifieds and now all the messages are people telling me to keep it. Gonna give it another go today with a light sweater to test it’s versatility again. Aero 1950s halfbelt, heavy horsehide

Man, I couldn’t begin to understand why you sold the Primo HWM, but if your letting that one go too your place on my personal list of cool people is in serious jeopardy…!! ;)

I’ve got my love to keep me warm….but I also have Horsehide and mouton, which doesn’t hurt. This is my Neo jacket. A true survivor in the closet of a madman. The undisputed champion of everything I’ve ever owned.
50’s Windward.

Terrible hat I know but I need to find something similar as my dome doesn’t have a pelt of its own worth mentioning or providing any warmth and I’m getting sick of the constant newsboy.

There must be a Chicago Bears beanie hat with your name on it somewhere!

Yes it is.
The back is from 60s-70s (Brooks/ Kehoe/ Reed/ Beau Breed/ Fidelity/ etc)
Sorry I should have been more specific.

Standard for those but not as far as I can see for the Aero Cafe Racer (happy to sit corrected)

In College Station to take the boy to some Santa event. Cold. I’ve got a shirt, wool sweater, and wool vest on underneath. This pattern works for me— fits same whether layered or just a t. Some bubba in the hotel lobby said it was the most badass jacket. I said it was the wearer but thanks. My wife rolled her eyes.

Can I give you two likes....? This jacket looks great already, but with natural patina it has a potential of being one-of-a-kind spectacular.
Thank you Will. There is a story behind this model Simmons Bilt, my first nice jacket. Back when I was under the mistaken impression that one jacket was enough. I sold to @sweetfights and he mentioned this ridiculous forum which led me quickly to the @Marc mndt link to your Kit Karson and the rest is history. Now I have too many jackets and too much interest in what people throughout the world are wearing everyday. It’s been great.
