    Jacket Collecting - Ever ask why?

    Ton, great points. Speaking of gambling, I watched a basketball game on ESPN the other night and could not believe the number of DraftKing plugs/commercials I saw. I fear for the men that are sucked into that as an addiction.

    Jacket Collecting - Ever ask why?

    The great thing about jacket collecting is that it's open to many economic classes. The more expensive jackets are still attainable for many middle/upper-middle-class people like myself. It's a big tent with people of many backgrounds. The same cannot be said for the highest-end watches and...

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

    Hey Ton, that's a great question. This was sold as a Herms and has the red lining and dual interior chest pockets I believe. I wonder if Herms contracted with Pasaic and sold under the Herms name, like a Walter Dyer business model? Herm was based out of Easton PA which isn't too far from NJ.

    Looks good! Nice one K. I think that's the MJ4 "Track Star". The Herm's thread is here. If you're ever looking to move it on HMU.

    Help needed: EMS/ USPS packages lost - Rainbow Country and Freewheelers items.

    Good luck! I can't imagine any of the the local yinzers having any clue what that stuff is, or what the market would be for it. I'm sure it will turn up somewhere. If they do show up it'll be on Marketplace I bet.

    I love the yoke on the first one. I'm surprised no one has made a leather jacket with that design.

    The Bates Corner

    Quick snaps while walking the dogs. I believe this style of Bates is discontinued. It features a short front for riding and two rows of zippers to accommodate layers.

    The Bates Corner

    I know, it's crazy expensive. That said, the leather jacket hobby is a big tent IMO. Imagine the disparity in what certain classes of people can afford to buy in a car or watch pursuit, right?

    The Bates Corner

    If I could order one bespoke from Bates I'd get the T2 jacket.
