What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[ksozay]

From the "But there's room to layer"! camp comes this gargantuan RL cross zip. Nice cognac color to it tho. It's a super easy jacket to wear with sleeve diameter rivaling my Carhartt Detroit. The leather is pretty although it does not feel as it will ever develop any significant creases. I may have my tailor trim the sleeves and body for a better fit. Not sure...to me this jacket is quietly whispering in my ear
" sell me and buy a natty Bootlegger"

I actually think that jacket turned out pretty well! And yes, it's about that time of year again for you to put in your annual bootlegger order.

I want one so bad. I suppose I could sell 2or 3 of my jackets and get one....but ugh the decisions. Anyone want to give me a Christmas gift. LW J23 size 36? Just going to throw that out there. I need to join the brotherhood.

You are right.

 

[ksozay]

You are right.

My J23 from Stuart arrives tomorrow!

So excited...

You know, I have a REALLY NICE Model E in a size 38! It's that good Vanson leather, the kind that feels 4 inches thick and makes the cop squeaking noises. But the noise is subtle enough that only you hear it. I love it, just a HAIR too small.

Go for it, the best hide in the world. But don't expect it's a perfect jacket because it has many flaws.
I would recommend their civilian jacket, it works much better than their Mc jacket

Nice enough jacket Ton but if you don’t love it, you don’t love it. Plus, you of all people have sold far better jackets in the past....I’d say this ones days are numbered?

I saw it in the classifieds. Put up some measurements?! Also do you accept trades?

...and yet just two threads below, someone only wished to express their gratitude toward everyone on this here forum for being such a helping bunch. I wonder what that person would have to say if they saw you guys here, involved in this shady plotting.

In all fairness someone I forgot who without looking warned them to never come back and lock up their wallet. This place is hell camouflaged as heaven; I do declare!

Schott 626. I like the grain difference between the two sleeves. Gives it some nice character.

My problem is I hold everything against Aero. They are my gold standard. Few jackets can bear that terrible burden and most get the boot! Ironically I don't own a single Aero right now. And that's a problem.

Where did your heavy 4+ oz. steer bootlegger go??

Off to a true Aero fan!
