What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Awesome! Looks like one of these „artificially aged“ jackets on japanese Insta pages.
This is Vicenza leather, right? TBH, I make sure to wear Horweens CXL in the pouring rain. Shrugs the water off effortlessly.

Yes, Vincenza - I was very surprised - I knew that it broke in quickly but I guess the thorough soaking as I wandered round kwithour my house keys helped. I carried on wearing it for the rest of the day once Id got back home just so it didn't dry out of shape

Great cap too! Stetson?

Thanks Tom!
Actually it’s from Mucros Weavers in Ireland. A while back Gamma68 posted a photo here wearing one of their caps and I liked it so much I ordered one for myself.

First snow of the season; actually a mix of snow, freezing rain, sleet, etc. Willis & Geiger G-1 with thick wool turtleneck to fend off the cold.

Fantastic!
I’ve been wearing and loving mine for the last few days. I might even go for the Full 30.

I always have a question on G-1, why it doesn't has warmer lining like quilted or wool since it is a winter jacket (fur collar)? It doesn't make sense.

Would love to see 30 days on yours. Vicenza seems to show wear really easily so I’m working my way up to CXL.

The G-1 is classified as an “intermediate” flying jacket. Back in the day (WWII), the Navy had a cotton summer flight jacket, the M-421, an intermediate jacket, the leather M-422a (later called the G-1) and a winter flight jacket, the sheepskin M-444/M-445.
Now the Navy has Nomex and Aramid fire-resistant textile jackets but the G-1 is still labeled as “intermediate”.

Vicenza is more “rockstar” whereas the CXL definitely has a “biker” vibe.

Great analogy
