You should have showered whilst wearing the jacket with the fringes and then without the fringes and compared drying time...

There are a lot of very funny quotes on this forum. But every once and awhile there are some that ACTUALLY make me laugh out loud. This was one of them. My all time favorite was from Ton. He had a pic of a REALLY, REALLY bad stitch line on a TRD jacket. Ton quoted the worker as saying "eff it, close enough." Still gets a chuckle from me when I think about it.

Fringed buckskin jackets were a big subculture clothing item in certain parts of the UK back in the 80’s..would consider the Schott tan version, I like a fringed jacket. The ‘tails’ over here were a Mod item that flew from the whip aerial…..my Vespa not being a dodgem or bumper car doesn’t have one…

I never did watch Easy Rider or care about the water wicking properties (if any)...I just think the fringe looks cool. Not "daily driver" material, but something for when the right mood strikes. There's a certain western and rock and roll vibe that comes with it.
