What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Kevin O'Sullivan]

Yes, we were the better team but our D didn’t show up. Couldn’t even get one stop. So disappointing…but at least it’s back to leather jacket weather.

This leather looks supremely comfortable. What's the hide and manufacture if you don't mind?

Partially. It will still stand on its own. I‘d love to have one of those OrvisXVanson HH Ikes In XL.

You saw the one I posted earlier?

Pretty solid. I have taken to sitting on it in the office.

I remember how my first leather was broken in. I had just spent a months wages (late 70s) on a new Kett, my pals rolled it, tied it off with sizal and played football with it.

Think I'll just sit on this one

Yes, I saw it, and one other one recently, both L. I really have to have an XL. Great looking jackets!

OFF TOPIC: I see you guys are American Football fans - since I know nothing about this sport may I ask: is Karlaftis indeed a good player? I knew his father personally (affiliated in the same faculty), such a tragic loss when he passed away.

His career is just starting but he looks really good. And he already won a championship so that must be nice for him.

Yet another Brown La Brea pic. Pure Joy.

How do you always have someone to take photos of you? A drone?

It's actually called a wife

When people spec a 5* properly, they are in a league of their own for bang for your buck. You could have told me that was $1500 custom jacket and I would have believed you...

It is! It's a Freewheelers Bodie in deerskin.

Yeah, the loss of his dad is described in Karlaftis' Wikipedia page. Gone too soon, for sure, not being able to see his son's NFL success.

Anyone else having a problem attaching multiple photos at once? I have to attach files one at a time. If I try to attach multiple it simply posts copies of one or two of the pictures.

 

[dudewuttheheck]

@JMax It depends on the size of the photos for me. If I make them small enough, I can put a few in. If they are too big, I can just get one attached.

How do you like it? Looks great.

I really like it. On clearance now.

Too bad their cross-zip versions aren’t interesting to me. I would be all over wool C2 or Thunderbird.
