What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

A nice dynamic shot with nicely blurred background. Great fit.

Thanks, I was channeling my inner Steve Austin when I took this photo

The Californian came in today. So cool, fit is great, leather is awesome as Terry said. BUT..... a seam at one pocket welt is separated, and internal pocket bag is shredded. Not disclosed in ebay listing, so back it goes unless somebody here wants it for $299 shipped conus. Offer valid for 24 hours.... I am 5-8, 142 lbs, jacket is tagged 38 vintage and wears like that. Totally wearable. All zips original and working. I would keep it 100%, but don't need another project right now. Sick jacket though.

I’d keep it and work the issues slowly. Looks great and a welcome addition to your vintage, straight zip police jacket collection.

Edit: The Cal and Monarch do fit and look better tho. So I get it. But still.

Also an example of how beautifully and flawlessly a leather jacket can fit. Hard to believe that’s a stock jacket, it looks tailor-made for you.

A lightweight steerhide (apprentice piece and a good one) Pretty much brand new, seller bought the wrong size...

The HH russet

A brace

and a couple of pose shots of the SH

A little room on the Steerhide for a layer

HH is stellar fit, jacket looks great, one of your best.

Thank you Will.
The SH is slightly bigger, however I will be able to get a light layer under. The Hide looks like it will age very nicely.

Doubling down on a bad idea seems to be a theme of late. I’m doing it myself with this polo. Next time I post it, you won’t recognize it.

Can you comfortably move those armas and bend them? The sleeves look super tight. i've had that happen to me on some jacket and shirts and my arms end up sore during the day,

They are vermicelli sleeves. Absurdly narrow. Fortunately the leather is insanely soft. Naked calfskin? It puts up zero resistance. So it’ll blow apart at the seams before it injures me.

A quick snap of the new larger sized ELMC windward before it heads back to the UK to get the sleeve/shoulder fixed.

This model seems to jump up in size a lot more than the Californian. With the Cali, it was hard to tell the 40 from a 42. This is significantly bigger than the 40.

Schott today. Perfect..

You look a bit like Batista with that new short haircut. Intimidating, especially with that Schott.
