What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Joshua Holland]

I've been reading about all the troubles over at Lewis Leathers, and my hopes for a second LL, a sheepskin Dominator (first was a Cyclone), seemed maybe a ways off (not to mention the cost). But a Dominator popped up on Ebay, which I was positive wouldn't fit me, since stock and other people's jackets never do (being as long and lean as I am). However the measurements seemed to line up, and for a pre-owned-for-a-few-years-but-never-worn-outside jacket at $600 (and after a bunch of questions to the seller) I nervously pulled the trigger. It showed up today (two days earlier than expected) and I was shocked at how well it fit. Sleeves are never long enough for me but these do the trick (maybe, just maybe, could have another 1/4 inch). Find of the year for me.

Looks like a good fit to me, congrats.

Very weak attempt at a selfie stick (I hate that term) wearing my 141 in the house as its 91 degrees Fahrenheit in FLA. I crack myself up with this obsession as some have labeled it……..leather collecting.

that's some nice grain you got going there. I need to wear mine more often. Do you know how old it is?

You are one big dude. It says a lot when a man's feet make me stop what I'm doing and stare in disbelief.

Early winter annual pruning of my grape vines in my Aeromarine. Not really a casual jacket but good for layering on colder days.

Depending on the manufacturer, I have US 12 or US 13.
196 cm just need big feet not to fall over

One of the nicest Aeromarines I've seen and you're wearing it well.

Thank you, much appreciated. I don’t wear it that much as it’s rarely cold enough where I live, and It’s a fraction large so better worn with layers.

Awesome! LL deserve all the hype. Just effortlessly cool!

LL Lightning. Sorry for the grim expression. Never seem to be able to look relaxed in a selfie.

Awesome! Another great belt too.

I’m all in for a mean mug competition- Tom v Carlos. Let’s get it on.

I think it is so cool that TFL is such a year-round virtual community. There is always a spot in the world where there is not too hot for a jacket.

Ha, challenge accepted! Incidentally, I happen to be around your old hometurf. Would have been great to share a beer in real life for a change!
