What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[King B]

I'm new to this forum but I love all types of leather jackets. From heavy Aero, Simmons Bilt, etc to more fashion ones like Matchless, Boda Skins and Belstaff. Today I'm wearing my Boda Skins model X in lamb skin.

How do you even decide what to leave the house in? They'd find a skeleton lying in a bunch of leather jackets if I had your collection...

Ha, it does cause some indecision on some mornings. And I have been thinking about offloading a bunch of them (a Vanson or two, Classic, Mars, which is actually for sale already, maybe the Langlitz, the IH Type 1 I got from Ton, the one I believe is a Taubers cross-zip...)

In any case, here is what I wore back into work...Perseus's Steed:

I just had to chuckle today. You have a signature chair for your jacket pics. I assume at your work. I thought, i bet everyone stands in the presence of you and your jackets and not dare move your jacket or be stupid enough to try and sit on it. I just envision a WTF moment if they did. Lol
Nice Steed change up today by the way!

No doubt they chuckle behind my back, it is south Fl and I sport leather. However, I weep for anyone that dares sit on my jackets.

Too cool for school

It was cool and overcast here in the Bay Area today. Went for a walk in the LW CHP to celebrate the weather.

The BK patterns seem fantastic but their leather seems to age crazy fast. Every jacket I've seen, even if it is only 3 years old, looks like it has been worn hard for 20 years. Any thoughts on that?

Amazing jacket. Beautiful and extremely happy with fit. Thanks to all involved. Process and end result are awesome!

I know it’s been some time since you posted this, but I was literally speechless since seeing this (some business trips prevented posting too).

THIS is my all time favourite jacket on the lounge. The pattern is great to begin with, but the hide and your tweaks just turned it into perfection.

I do not need another jacket!!! (repeat 100 times).

Got this nice Willis & Geiger wool jacket off the ‘bay. Has an inner plaid wool lining (basically two layers of wool in one jacket) so it’s plenty warm. Front cargo pockets, side handwarmer pockets plus an inside wallet pocket with button closure. Really a well-made jacket with great styling and high quality construction.
I’ve added a replica RMS Titanic/White Star Line officer’s whistle to make this an “old school” ship captain-style “uniform” jacket.

Sir, you have impeccable style!

Your best looking jacket, in my opinion. And you do have quite the collection! Some may disagree, but I do like Lewis Leathers much.

 

[Tom71]

This again, after some time.

Was away for a while, but I also had the misfortune that the zipper on this broke for no apparent reason (AND I I was being extra careful with the Hookless...). Happened in a rainstorm too.
Good thing is that this incident got me to experience Aero’s flawless customer service once again. Holly and Denny looked at the mess via photos and sent replacement parts. Had a new puller installed today, so here I go again, ready for the start of fall.

Thank you sir. Carrie / TB had quite a bit to do with it. She is awesome to bounce ideas off of.

I do repeat that mantra, then see something and think, one more won’t hurt anyone...just one more.

Oh man I love that jacket!!

I thought it was in interesting find. Couldn't pass it by, in other words.

Great looking jacket Terry.

The BK patterns seem fantastic but their leather seems to age crazy fast. Every jacket I've seen, even if it is only 3 years old, looks like it has been worn hard for 20 years. Any thoughts on that?

According to BK, their Liberty HH is designed to age quickly.

As I understand, they designed the finish to wear this way.
Similar to the "tea core".
