Shouldn’t you have a cigar with that?
Hah it WOULD make a great prop- but I gave up smoking long ago.

Wheres the hat from and how much? Looks right up my alley.
Really like this one.This is Vanson x Iron&Resin rider executed in 14-oz waxed cotton the UPS-man brought me a few minutes ago - couple of quick shots. The jacket was posted in the Finds and Deals thread by @JMax (thanks!). I am wearing size S. It weighs a respectable 3 lbs and I love it. Check out the massive #8 YKK Vanson 2-way zipper (the size of my thumb!), a deerskin collar liner, heavy duty snaps, bellows pockets. Lining only in the back, not up front or in the sleeves. No matter. Iron and Resin is blowing them out at 50% MSRP on fleabay.

Nothing to feel weird about, I think that look works extremely well.. you carry it off perfectly..
how long you have the 141? I have love hate relationship with mine. Don't think it's broken in yet, especially on the sides with the gussets, biswing, straps, etc. So it's a little bulky on mine. Definitely see improvement from when I first bought it though. But yours looks pretty clean. Wondering if it'll all drape properly at some point and lay flat.View attachment 266755 View attachment 266756
Trying out this hat thing. Feels weird but I like it.
Schott 141 for today’s non-working hours

No visible wax transfer to a Manila envelope in the sleeve. I even heated up the sleeve with a blow dryer to simulate body heat, the scientist that I am, lol.
yeah, that's the same issue I'm having. The front looks killer. Could use a tiny tuck in the upper waist/lower lat area. But the sides are a mess. Between the gusset, the biswing back, the pull from the straps. I wonder if I could have a tailor get rid of the biswing and just taper the waist/hips how I want them so I can lose the straps. I love the 100 series leather, but the fit on this thing is weird.I bought mine used on eBay and the previous owner(s) did a lot of work, especially on the arms.
It’s also a bit small on me which is probably helping it look better in pictures. Looks great unzipped but the back gussets open like a cobra when I zip it up.
@AeroFan_07 Thanks!
This morning was quite chilly in HoosierLand so I slipped this on....

What's wrong with the fit? Looks great to me. Or should a ask eagle eye @Carlos840 this question?Vintage Herc. Not my best fitting jacket but still very much in my all time favorites list. Just something about it. I am also trying to up my photo game. Pretty sure you’ve all seen enough of my living room.
