    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I love those prison stripe trousers! I've been looking at prison trousers for ages and ages but I just know I'm not brave enough to ever wear them. Respect to you for that.

    New budget M-65 Field Jacket?

    You might be surprised. I am a 39-40 chest and mine is a EU Small / US XSmall, and it fits perfectly. There are plenty of pictures around here of me wearing it. https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/what-jacket-are-you-wearing-today.82949/page-2455#post-3048581

    New budget M-65 Field Jacket?

    I have an M65 from Helikon-Tex. I can't recommend it highly enough, it's superb. Construction, attention to detail and robustness are outstanding. It is my go-to jacket for any situation. I've never worn an original issue M65, but I have tried modern repros from Superdry and Brandit and...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I'm kind of looking forward to jacketable weather now. It's only this week that I've had to reach for a sweatshirt in the morning, after several months of just t shirts.

    Someone should tell her she's sitting on that bike the wrong way round. Embarrassing!

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I have been riding today in my Oxford Heist jacket. I mentioned it here before but it's quite a nice bit of kit for riding. AAA rated, but looks like a nothingy zip up jacket in tan canvas twill. All of which is just an excuse to post this picture. I went to a local custom shop today to have a...

    The Deck Jacket thread.

    Just got an email from Silverman's today. They've got a sale on at the moment on their deck jackets. I don't have one of theirs, but have always thought they looked very good value for money, and even better at the sale price...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    On a whim I've ordered this, the Oxford Heist jacket. It's a 13.5oz cotton twill with DWR water repellent finish. It's a riding jacket, so it comes with armour and the cotton twill is woven with UHMWPE to give it a quite surprising AAA certification as PPE. I know it looks like nothing, but...

    I think I would, yes. I'm not married to the idea of period correctness and will happily enjoy items that veer away from traditional designs. And. I think your wife's jacket looks terrific and fits her really well.

    Short leather motorcycle jacket

    I don't have a horse in this race, but as an aside: It's apparently CE rated at AA for motorcycle PPE, which seems pretty respectable. I don't have any Roland Sands gear, but I'm happy to ride in something AA rated - that's only one level below a full leather race suit. My armoured UHMWPE...
