What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Just went out for a photoshoot with this Freewheelers Four Corners I'll try to write a review on this one. (yes, I was sweating in the second pic LOL)

I really like this one. Love the big flap pocket on the chest. Way back in the 90s I used to wear a wide-lapelled, black leather blazer that was my Dad's; in my crowd we thought I looked well Carlito. Still have it in the wardrobe, though I'm far too big to wear it at present. I've moved away from that style since, and for a long time avoided that middle length between a short leather and a trenchcoat type, but in the last couple of years this sort of blazer-length, work-jacket in leather has really started to appeal to me. This is a particularly nice example.

Brooks Gold arrived today. Lots of thanks to @handymike for advice and talking me into it (literally).
Needs a bit of conditioning however I think a pretty good fit.
I like it now and think I may get to like it more.

@torfjord Wow, looks really nice and seems like that it got some wear in the meantime...haven't been here for a while. Really really nice!!


@Adence As already said, perfect fit and looks so much better than it looked on me. Again, congrats!

Thanks buddy! Good to see you back here again!

Jacket looks superb man! If it fit me that well I’d have kept it
Truthfully, I gifted it b/c it came as a gift to me. And so the spirt of the lounge survives another day. I’m proud to be a part of it! Looks good on ya brother. Wear in good health

No rudeness intended

There is a joke amongst Professional Photographers which parallels this

'If you have a great meal do you ask chief which Oven they cooked it in?'

I can't really speak to cooking, but if I had a good meal, and was also a chef, I might ask..? Or more analogous, ask the size of oven and temperature used etc. As a photographer (which I can speak to), I am sometimes curious as to the gear used by another. And as was posted, it isn't necessarily the brand, but "camera/lens combo" i.e. the frame size, max f/ of lens etc. or was it a phone camera? Things good to know if you're trying to achieve a look or effect you see in another's work and improve your own knowledge and skill. And of course, always compliment the photos themselves, as the commenter did. My 2¢.

Hein Gericke, this has been pretty much my daily wear jacket for the last few months.
