    The Deck Jacket thread.

    If you want the best deck jacket in terms of materials and warmth, definitely go with Freewheelers. I've tried one on and an iron heart as well as buzz and rmc. The Freewheelers alpaca felt the nicest. I also own a Freewheelers winter jacket with alpaca lining and it's wonderful. I also...

    Celebrities jackets

    The race was actually surprisingly fantastic, but the style/fashion was not so great

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Curious what y'all think. Some more pics of my 1940s California Sportswear aviator. It's bigger than I'm used to, but I don't think it's too big. Maybe at most half a size big, but I still like it. It's very comfortable and while it is much longer than I prefer, it still looks "correcf." 5his...

    Schott has been very busy! 3Sixteen x Schott releases Monday

    The leather looks utterly fantastic. The jacket itself looks too long and the design is confused.

    Who Makes a Nice Pea Coat?

    I was probably just angry at how out of shape I was. I fixed that since this photo was taken, though.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Yeah it is technically the correct size for me. I'm still getting used to vintage fits in some way. 6'3 would be more difficult to fit because even the longer length jackets in the body may not have long enough sleeves. A1 jackets were originally made with capeskin which drapes much more and is...

    HARLEY x Real McCoy x Jason Momoa Horse hide D pocket 1940s

    Since getting into vintage jackets myself, I've noticed most repros give more front drop than actually existed on originals.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    If it fit me as well as it fits you, I'd have kept it. So glad it went to a good home though! '40s California Sportswear aviator A bit loose at the bottom when unzipped and slightly long, but otherwise I love how it fits. Basically, I love how the top half fits, but don't love how the bottom...

    Real Mccoys Buco BJ21002 Style King… Patina experiences?

    Earlier, actually which is nuts. I don't think they are actually coming back.

    Real Mccoys Buco BJ21002 Style King… Patina experiences?

    Yeah I was very much not a fan of that leather. I had the Cooper 30s sports jacket. If they ever remade that jacket without the printing, I'd buy it. Very boring leather to me.

    Yup! That's the one.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thanks! I will be doing some stuff on my vintage jackets for sure. Yeah its amazing. It's also one that would be almost impossible to find vintage even though I have seen the one in the Tanaka book. I think a repro is probably the only option.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Glorious. Fits you well. Probably the only "new" jacket I actually would want to buy now if it came up in my size. Yeah I do! Yours definitely looks a little darker than mine and yours is much much visible grain, but overall looks similar.

    Thoughts on these Jimmy Choo boots?

    Yeah the helmet thing is definitely true. Fair point, although I don't like all of these examples either. Plus, I'd argue that Nike is basically treated as a designer brand now anyway as are many other lower priced makers. They are still largely bought for that branding and clout by many people.

    Thoughts on these Jimmy Choo boots?

    Yup that's true, which is why I don’t wear that stuff. It even annoys me when supposedly more quality focused brands add branding onto their products.

    Thoughts on these Jimmy Choo boots?

    I like these much more. The lack of branding helps. I don't know why these fashion brands feel the need to put their name on everything and ruin things.
