    Nine Lives rider's jacket

    Like Monitor said, the sleeves are too short, in relation to the body of the jacket. If you got it big enough for the sleeves to fit, the body would hang on you like an empty cardboard refrigerator box... and if you got the body to fit, the sleeves would be four inches above you wrist. For...

    Wow! That grain and character looks a lot like capeskin. Your jacket looks even better the closer you get. Thanks for these pics.

    Brave Star Selvage -

    Pay attention to the sizing though, an XXL jacket is going to fit like a 44, which I just found out to my dismay.

    It’s too late to matter

    No question that Dav's Highwayman is one of the most iconic and beloved jackets on this forum... but there are cooler jackets here. This one, for example, is a look that cool young people will be striving to attain for generations to come... and vary few will achieve it: And I've always...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Ahh... there you are! A-1... Stop being a whore, stay faithful to your first love, quit letting other jackets wrap themselves around your body. Have a little plaque made up with these words from our Atticus Finch on it, and mount it on the inside of your closet door: "The main danger in...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Atticus - First of all, I like your post, I agree with it, and I am trying my darndest to live up to it. Second of all, here is a song that embodies your signature. If you are not familiar with it, pay attention to the lyrics. Also, watch Joe's AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL guitar work, and body...

    Look what she's using her cross-zip motorcycle jacket for...

    I don't know, ton, I think she knows how to heat a rod. :rolleyes: GHT - It IS a lady from World War 2. That's her granddaughter's reflection you can see in the glass on the photo.

    Look what she's using her cross-zip motorcycle jacket for...

    What a shame she had to use it for a welding jacket. It must have worked though - check out the collar and lapels - that was some pretty thick leather. I wonder if she ever appreciated that awesome sleeve creasing. ;)

    Leather Trucker Levi's / Lee / Type-whatever jackets!

    Skip to the 4:45 minute mark, and you can see that this guy is rocking a beautiful, tight-fitting black leather trucker/western/cowboy/Levi jacket: The whole video is worth watching, just for the music.

    Leather Trucker Levi's / Lee / Type-whatever jackets!

    Looks like the right jacket for picking up disreputable girls in Wyoming. Like ton said, what happened to your love for cafe racers? You, single-handedly, wore me down by persistently drawing my attention to the kaffs, until I had a couple saved searches on ebay for them. And now... I'm...

    Please share thoughts: button versus zipper jacket?

    I was going to say that this jacket wouldn't look right without buttons... but then I stared at the zippered one for a while, and it started growing on me! Zippers are more convenient, but I, too, like being able unbutton the bottom one when sitting down. Could get a double zip, but I kinda...

    What's ya'll opinion/experience on Lewis leathers sheepskin?

    That is an awesome jacket! The color and the hat(s) make it look vintage. How is the cut -does is have slim sleeves and high armholes? Does it have good range of motion in the arms and shoulders? I have been toying with the idea of getting one (or maybe the Dominator) in British Racing...

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

    ^^^^^ That jacket has some dashing pirate style to it! Nice ton pose. ;-)

    Thinning out collection - what to keep!

    What do you mean: "Who to give the rest to"? And what sizes are they?

    My granddaughter's new grizzly jacket...

    She has curls like Shirley Temple, may as well a style that was popular back then!

    First Aero!!! Battered Tan Teamster

    When I looked at your pics, I thought I was going to be the only guy telling you not to get another jacket. This one deserves to become your signature look, your second skin, and the way everybody remembers of you, for the rest of your life. Ditto to what HoosierDaddy said about the newsboy...

    Just when you thought you had seen it all . . . (Warning: Not for the fainthearted)

    For when it's too hot to wear the whole thing: ProteinNerd - Before you start wondering what dark internet alleys I've been wandering down, I got this here on the Fedora Lounge... in the Leather Cult thread. Honest. :D
