Just a Henley a new flannel and the PW suede vest for me today while I'm out plinking with one of my vintage air pistols, it warmed up to 67°f by 10:30am this morning so the jacket got old pretty quick.

I have become an absolute wimp when it comes to cold weather. In college I would go out in below freezing weather in shorts, flip flops, and a hoodie. Now I need a jacket like this here in socal. I do wake up super early which is why I got it, but I'm still shocked that I needed to wear it every day last week.

I forgot you're working out and these will work for you. I need to go to the gym, lol.

That's the thing, you don't really need to get super big, they still look like you have that shoulder span.

Example: look at my LW Trojan. I can wear it now and I will be able to wear if I ever get bigger (I doubt it lol)

Did RGT make a vest of this or did you cut off the sleeves yourself?

That looks awesome man! I love a Brad, and that's a pretty rare colour isn't it?

Is it the shearling version?

Thank you!

Yes it is a very rare colour.

No it's not the shearling version. I'd love one though.

I've always admired this fabric, what specifically makes it "beach cloth"? Is it cotton, wool, something else? I wish I had an opportunity to handle it, seems like it has a unique texture and feel.

It's a combination of wool and cotton. It's 74% wool, 26% cotton. You can see the weave on the outside and it's brushed on the inside.

What I love about it is that it's more wind resistant than worsted wool knits, lighter, and still stretchy.

For example, I also have a Dehen 1920 heavy wool cardigan. The Dehen wool cardigan is heavier, more itchy, and less wind resistant. Most likely less water resistant too.

This jacket is more expensive new than that cardigan, but it does show how wonderful the fabric is. I got mine used and I'm glad I did.
