What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[barnabus]

For me it's been the M65 today.

It's been a glorious afternoon, but a bit breezy, so this was perfect.

e: much better photos today as I've found my old camera. Which, although old, is way better than my terrible phone camera.

So I picked up this Schott P560 today. Its like new! The leather is beautiful. Its dark blue but looks black outside. I think I got a good deal too for $300 CAN.

Serious expression for a serious jacket I guess.

very nice jacket!

 

[dudewuttheheck]

the coolest leather jacket on you, the state it is in, the broken in unstitched cuff, the creases and drape all look great.

Thanks! It probably is the jacket that suits me best at the end of the day.

Another shot of my old Excelled jacket.

Also, a shot of my Redskins leather I bought in Paris. I’ll probably be posting this in the classifieds as well, if anyone is interested. It’s a pretty unique jacket, I hardly wore it that much. It’s more of a dress leather, not really for riding.

For gauge- it’s a size Medium, I measure a 38” chest. I like that it’s a European fit, pretty straight and slim through the body. I’ve lost weight over the years, but it still fits me fairly well.

Funny... when I put on my jacket that I usually wear for skiing, my little daughter said "You have fabric jackets? I thought you only had leather jackets" (of course she knows better, but at that moment it must have slipped her mind, because the last time I wore them was a year ago). View attachment 490821

Same feeling here, I was skiing last week and that was the only time I wore a fabric jacket lol

I had considered making a leather jacket with a sleeve pouch like Lewis leather but a bit bigger for the ski pass. Maybe a LW because they are so waterproof... but that is taking a bit too far lol

IDK Fonzie wore one water skiing when he jumped that shark.

Aviation Leathercraft Pilots Jacket in size 44R.

Really more of a fit check (although I have worn it this morning).
I think it's too short both back and sleeve length, would you agree?

Thedi on a business trip. I normally try to travel with carry-on only, but this time I am gone for nine days, so I brought the jacket.

Was sitting next to a colleague with what I suspect to be an absurdly expensive goat suede jacket. When it started to drizzle he jumped up, panic stricken and brought the jacket inside. He couldn’t believe when I just waited out the ten minute wet spell without batting an eye. I had fun!

Looks within acceptable range to me, personal tastes notwithstanding.
