What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[JMax]

My new Montgomery Ward-nothing like putting on an old horsehide that's about my age. Smells like old Horsehide and a bar. Nothing like the smell of old horsehide in the morning.

Awesome. Would you mind telling me the actual P2P? Thank you.

Third week + of Shanghai lockdown. Wearing the Aero Mariner on trips to the balcony for cups of tea.

No-name again. The jacket is heavy (5.8 lbs after Obenauf's treatment - softened the leather a great deal), but sits on the shoulders very well and causes no fatigue after all day running errands yesterday. Also, the leather was very squeaky before Obenauf's; it is totally quiet after. Just a data point for those with squeaky jackets.

Belt or no belt, different looks, like both. Ridley is rock solid jacket.

Buddy, this jacket is perfect for you

I am utterly amazed by the quality of this hh Kit Karson. It's a tier above my 50s steerhide Hercules and Windward mc jackets. Two tiers maybe.

The wool lining had a few holes in it which I fixed today. Next up are the gussets, I need to install an elastic band to pull them in. That'll be a job for next weekend.

There's a size 40 for sale by the way. It looks to be in even better condition. Very reasonably prized:

55 and raining. @nottherealhankaaron needs his steps. Straight to the Barbour Border.

Love Barbour jackets. Made for a purpose and do it brilliantly. Still wearing my own even though it's April.

As nice as jackets get.

No name Horsehide long Halfbelt. Don’t wear this one as much as I should. Probably one of, if not my best fitting, old ponies in the stable.

Quick ride today.

Midnight Blue popping more and more brown…

Cheap Beau Breed for the motorcycle.

That size 40 is sold out.

That size 40 is sold out.

It was available when I posted it. Would be nice if one of our fellow loungers scored it!

Your jacket looks great. I like a jacket with a little wiggle room. I think it makes the jacket easier to wear.

Thanks for the squeaky jacket tip. I am having that problem now with a heavy CXL horsehide. I have about 150 hours of wear on it right now. It is STUPID loud. I think it might be getting louder with wear. lol. I have yet to try anything but wear it, so far. I don't think it will go away on its own, like I was hoping.
