What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Today, or for now at least as I fear it will soon be too warm for any jacket, an Eddie Bauer leather that I picked up yesterday on the cheap.

It's fairly heavy at 3.75 lbs and the leather seems identical to the buffalo that they use in some jackets. No idea though as it is unspecified.

Have a fine Tuesday all. I'm trying to talk myself onto the bicycle, but not much luck on that front so far.

Today's 88 cent special.

Decidedly broad of shoulder and much in need of some conditioning.

Unknown lightweight leather, but pretty big pieces so I would guess cowhide. Nice workmanship. Weighs only slightly more than this mornings bomber jacket.

Yes, USA made leather. It was in one of the local Goodwill stores. Since it is a size 46 and I'm more of a 42 or 40 I passed on it at $21. But it sat there all month with no takers so it went to half price, then after a week of that it went to 88 cents. Today it would have been 44 cents, tomorrow it would have been recycled. It should be cool enough to wear it this weekend. Was it worth it?

Oh Yeah!
What is it?

Something from another planet.

Can't see the pic!

You will.

You don't see the pic? I see it just fine! Is this yet another attack against mid-weight leathers . . . are you suggesting that TM's beautiful new jacket is so light-weight that you cannot even see it? Enough already!
