Breaking in my new work boots that just arrived today.
They may not get worn with any jackets worthy of showing here, but a jacket gets worn none the less.
Thorogood 814-6201.
They're clearly a pair of linesmans boots, and they look the most like a pair of WESCO highliners but being a linesman they may look like a PNW boot without being one.
However the stitchdown construction does make me think PNW, Canadian is also a possibility.
Still figuring out the versatility of the OG-108, so I decided to wear Tex today. ( Tex because it was issued to my dad at Ft Bliss TX in 1978 )
This was my absolute favorite go-to jacket as a teenager and I haven't worn it in a good while.
I need to find somebody who can repair a few things on...
I'm still figuring out the OG-108 field shirt, but it works well over the USMC commando sweater.
I'm a big fan of layering for warmth without sacrificing comfort and arm mobility, and this wool field shirt is just another practical / versatile layer.
I can wear it as a shirt if I want to, but...
It warmed up a bit this afternoon, and this OG-108 wool field shirt was waiting for me at the post office when I got home from the Cal AG museum ( lots of cool old tractors from my area ) so I decided to give it a try as a light jacket since it's a little bigger than I'd want it as a shirt...
I'd love to get an American made reproduction Ww2 tankers jacket.
My grandfather drove a tank across France with the US ARMY 4th armored division, and to have a tanker jacket would just be awesome.
My uncle has most of his stuff in storage somewhere, and I don't know who will wind up with his...
I've been wearing my green JWM cruiser most of the week ( definitely one of my favorite jackets ) , but today I went back to the TLW Chicago municipal.
I really do love this jacket, my first leather jacket, I'm very happy with the quality and the fit, and it has some sentimental value.
If...
Not exactly a jacket but a NOS OG-108 wool field shirt.
Seller lists it as Korean war era, but they were used a long time and I believe I see '71 date code on the label.
I really want the midwest gloves model 650V smooth American buffalo with vellux lining as I've been very happy with their gloves in the past, however the only place I can find these in stock or even sold at all is Amazon and that's a company I refuse to do business with.
I could wait till...
I wish it was a little bit smaller, but overall I really like this WH Shaffer vest.
For a company that mostly breeds cattle and runs an auction service they make a damn fine wool vest.
I don't know if it's pure virgin wool, but it Is 100% wool at least and a very tight weave at that.
A real...
A lot of my costumes involve USGI gear my dad handed down to me.
I can't remember the last time I didn't wear the RO-Search boots, and there has been a number of other years that I wore this GI trench coat.
The liner no longer fits in the arms so I don't really wear it anymore but I'll probably...
60's ? Woolrich barn jacket, well I call it a barn jacket anyways because I don't know what else to call it.
I really like this one but would love to find a better example since it has a lot of pilling and has seen better days.
Any suggestions on fixing the " cowlick " collar area on this vintage Wranglers?
This jacket only cost me $51 shipped and is a great beater at that price , but knowing it has that " cowlick " going on bugs me.
This just may be the first real fall day here where I get to wear a jacket all day.
Well sort of, it's supposed to be about 78°f with a wind chill.
I decided to go with the CCS vest and recently acquired vintage Wrangler today.
The right side collar area has this weird thing going on that I...
It was a solid shape.
I'm starting to think they have had something to do with some rockstar or band from the 90's / early 2000's.
Tom Morello or somebody.
I'm quite impressed with the heft and quality of this vest.
It's 2 full layers of a fairly thick very tight weave wool.
The fit is a little big, probably around a 38, but I don't think it's too big for me to wear.
The one thing I'm not sure about is the pinched back, I don't know if this is a...
