What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Downunder G Man]

Back to jackets ! Perforated Vanson Comet café racer today. We have just had several days of 39C.
Even this perforated Vanson leather was too hot by 9am today.
"Shoulda" worn a denim jacket. Usual beer stop at the coast.

Bob Dong Prisoner's motorcycle jacket.
Yes Bob Dong. The quality of the picture doesn't match the jacket's which is as good as your usual Carhartt. Heavy canvas outer and faux fur lining for your AW2020 lockdown terrace collection.

Love this jacket! Is this the standard version or the one longer in the body?

@Tom71 Thanks! Actually I don't know as I bought this second hand here in the Classifieds but it could be that it does look longer as I took size 42 in this case whereas I usually wear size 40....body is rather tight (not too tight) when wearing a sweater (no T-shirt). Do you think it looks too long on me, because I feel comfy and don't think that it's too long?

It looks great on you!

Only reason I asked is because I read in RMCs Insta feed that they sell it in a longer version too (in that given case with a rust mouton collar). It didn’t look long in the picture, but of course it was on an Asian guy, so it told me nothing about the ratio of length vs. fit.

You got quite the collection going, and this is a jacket I always thought to be a super interpretation of this pattern.

A "cool day" Super ? To be 33C here today and 39C tomorrow and 37 Wednesday. Those will be "no jacket" days as I will be unlikely to be riding my Harley !

LW Leathertogs. Wiped it down after riding through a swarm of dragonflies. Now to clean the bike. I must have taken out half the swarm.

There's an American artist, Greg Stimac, who started showing "abstract" artworks which were actually hi-res scans of a piece of plexiglass he'd tie to his car's front grill while driving cross-country. Always loved his work, way out there but still somehow dead-on.

It will perhaps make you feel better to know that my eyes have not looked upon the sun for two weeks? I can hardly remember what it feels like to have the sun shine on my face.

Very strong Theoden vibes!

The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow.

The archaic form of expression that Theoden is using was exactly what I was aiming for actually. I’m a huge Tolkien nerd.

Nice fit!

****py week, ain't going to lie, but then this shows up in the mail today from the classifieds. Notch two in my Cal fix and much more relaxed fit than the first I got, plus the fur collar (which might actually fit the other jacket, need to check). I think another step closer to my end game.
