Giving my new clothes finds from yesterday their first day of wear. Starting with an Ike of a different color.

Jaymar Sportswear wool/poly blend that came with a matching belt. I'm guessing 70s.

Along with a pair of US Army wool serge pants that appear to be cut from the 1937 pattern and a wool shirt that was cut from the 1940 pattern and delivered in 1941, if I'm reading the label correctly.

Aah, jacket weather,

Somewhat cooler temps today allowed me to wear my new vintage Excelled horsehide - definitely the shortest I’d ever want to go - but the length is perfect when zipped and sitting in a car or on a motorcycle - no extra leather to bunch up.

In a great-fitting jacket. Sitting, and almost no folds.

Fresh find... Just picked this custom Cal Leather horsehide jacket this morning at the flea market. Size 42-44. Nice long sleeves. Not sure if I'm keeping it or not, (already have one in the same style) but I couldn't say no...Hopeless addict. ;-(

Very well done.
You always wear your jackets with real style. I do not believe I have seen you not wear a jacket exceptionally well.
For real!!

Thanks Terry. This is one of a few great goatskin jackets I've been fortunate to pick up this year.

Is anybody into the so called fashion jackets such as Belstaff, Boda Skins etc?

 

[Imuricecreamman]

M-43. If I could have only one jacket, this would be it.

Hi Terry

I follow you on YouTube and one of the main reasons I joined this forum. I thought I had a great collection until I saw yours! It is just out of this world.

This is your second leather. You made a perfect fit!

Wow, nice. Octagon leather? How is that - how close to comp weight thickness?

Thanks. I really like the look and feel of Vanson's XL and Octagon leathers. IMO, more variance in the break-in, more personality sooner than CW. Stiff as a board when new. I recall more so than the CW jackets I own, but more quickly loosens and molds to the wearer. I look at it as Vanson's version of CXL. That said, to ride I prefer the more armor-like qualities of CW.

Not as thick as the best 3.5+ oz CW but plenty thick at around 3 oz.
