What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Johnny Deadlifts]

Hercules HB. Trying to see if this is a sleeve length I can live with. Everything else is spot on.

I think it looks good with the shirt cuffs taking up the space for the lack of length in the jackets sleeves. Would an " extended" storm cuff look silly on this style of jacket? I've had similar issues and thought it might work if tastefully done?

Stunning and–most crucially–perfect fit. I read a review here or elsewhere by someone lambasting the poor patterning of his A-1 when it was clear he'd sized wrong and that was why.

You nailed the sizing.

Cheap ...... thurston bros.

I thought these two things were mutually exclusive. Nice jacket.

Going to agree with Aloysius, that's a cracking fit. I also get the impression sometimes people struggle with the fit of A-2 or A-1's yet don't acknowledge they're not supposed to fit like a motorcycle jacket. A broad shoulder with a little drop, enough room in the chest and straight and clean through the waist. Perfect.

Back to the JWM cruiser.

I wore my 80's wranglers sherpa trucker some yesterday before being called in for an unexpected shift.

Thank you, A1 is probably my favourite type of leather jacket. I agree the fit of A1 and A2 is unlike a single riders or cafe racer jacket fit.

Running some errands with the boy. Nice day for the Oakbrook Satin Twill MC jacket and Stetson No. 1 (40s). Thanks @AbbaDatDeHat

I always suspected this is the best CR on the market and this confirms it!

And unfortunately the original looks much better than my copy ;-)

By far one of the coolest riding jackets!

Your CR is brilliant as well but you deserve the Jean Shop one. It's not really easy to explain why or how as it's just leather and textile, same as any other leather jacket but it truly is a level above any other CR that I've had.
