I'm just a curious kinda guy, this afternoon I got to wondering how bad I got "it". "It" being O.J.S. or "Obsessive Jacket Syndrome". Here's a list of what I've got.. you good folks feel free to "chime in". In no particular order.

Aero - 4 - LHB, Custom "Veste de Rallaye", Pre-war Irvin used and a sale black and rust "Thunder Bay" (pics soon come my brudda).

Vanson - 2 - Two Ike's, one in "Octagon" picked at the factory, the other in black used (pics soon come...)

Goodwear - 2 - Used Capeskin A1 and a new/used Bronco A2. B6 due next year I suppose.

Langlitz - 1 - Used civil flight off the bay.

US Authentic - 3 - One 50's half-belt, black Indy and black Custom A2

Alexander Leathers - 1 - "Redskin" D1, got PLENTY of use this winter I tell you!

Filson - 2 - One tin cloth, one shelter cloth for the spring rains (which show NO signs of ever arriving).

Assorted "No Names" - Single breasted Barnstormer (Canadian), Green cycle jacket, 2 junk Schotts off the bay and 2 Peacoats which also got a LOT of wear this winter.

I'm sure that's not EVERY thing but it's the best I can do without going down into the vault.

Not much. I'd probably have more if I didn't sell jackets that I don't need anymore.

Vanson - Model A and one of their perforate cafe racer models which I completely forgot that I have...
Aero - Motorcycle jacket, Highwayman and Route 66 on the way
Schott - 125, 618 and some old Cafe Racer
Avirex/Cockpit - Indy jacket

...and four old motorcycle jackets from different USA manufacturers, namely Excelled, Sears, Hein Gericke (well, that one's not from the USA but it's a very good jacket) and one other old horsehide that I know nothing about. Looking to find Lesco and Eastman Roadstar and praying that this should quench the thirst!

Hello, I'm new to the OJS Group but I admit I have a problem...



This is *most* of them. My interest is focused on WWII jackets. As far as the leather ones go, this is reasonably accurate as of late January 2014. It also only shows two cloth jackets, though I have more of those which I didn't picture.

I'm a real light weight compared to most of you guys; Aero fqhh Highwayman (now with Aero getting some storm cuffs & inside pocket fitted), Cirrus A2, Cirrus Irvin style and two Barbours for the rain and country walkin. Plans are currently afoot for a russet jerky A2 (maker to be decided).

You poor devils! Well, at least it's only detrimental to your wallet and not to your health. I guess Plumbline had to sell his car in order to get some storage space in the garage for his jackets. :D
