What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Fantastic jacket Tony! Wish there were opportunities to wear something like that in my neck of the woods. I really need to move to a colder climate.


^ thats a tough one. Jackets are great but cold is rotten.

I don't like to exaggerate or over do things as many can probably attest to...but...this is my all time favorite jacket ever in my history of collecting jackets. It's a marvel of quality. The fat ass collar is like wearing a pillow made of a bears back. The hide itself is thick but super soft and reminds me much more of goat than bison. I'm now officially a Buzz fan for life. 2 of 3 jackets done. Just one more to go. Aero can take their time. I'll be basking in this for quite some time. Thanks to @tmitchell59 for being an incredible neighbor and absolute dream to deal with!

Yes, a beautiful jacket that fits you perfectly. But, I'm confused - is this a total custom jacket?

Are these made in Japan? I'm afraid to ask the price.....

Looking at the fit you were meant to have that coat Tony. What a beaut! It's got style to burn too. Double bonus that the fair wife likes it!

Yes they are. I believe when new they were just over 1k. It’s been a number of years since they were offered so I could be mistaken.

There is one on eBay for $2,500.

LOL. That’s pretty hilarious actually. But yeah I saw that one. I suppose it doesn’t hurt to dream big.

Cafe racer. Battered tan gets... more of the same with time. This is the one jacket that demands jeans be worn at the height that the Good Lord intended.

Anybody have a barn that needs storming? Sorry I'm done now.

Aha, no wonder I couldn't find it on their site.

I remember HPA offered them in a couple different variations. I purposely “forgot” some things at the store this morning so I could have an excuse to go out in it again. Some Bloody Mary mix is required for today’s round of playoff football. “Oh don’t worry dear, I’m happy to run back to the store”. LOL.

Tony, you only need that coat and one for warmer weather (Bootlegger 3.0). Get out! You're done!

I applaud this attitude!!
Beats the heck outta hearing “You love that jacket more than me”. As you roll outta bed in the mornings.

And that makes the jacket so perfect.

And now Ton, one day at a time.

It’s green wool! The collar has a greenish tint to it as well.
