What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

^^ Ton, at least the shorter length won’t hinder the operation of your cheese grater

The construction is superior to anything I’ve handled in suede. The fit is tight and extremely short. But it’s so damn pretty. This is a size 42”. 44” would be perfect but likely will never appear.
I either cowboy up and accept the length or just continue down my trail of tears.

How you coming along with the cowboy hat? What size hat are you?

I believe a 7 and 1/4”. 58cm. I haven’t put much effort in tbh. Ideally I want something with a smaller, stingy brim!

Fack! It's always death by an inch in this hobby.

Just like Mr Lovett's lyrics...

I think you are right @Yamahana Ton needs to top that suede off

It really is. But after wearing it out I think I’m good. It’s just too cool to fling and it’s the only one I’ve ever seen. I usually see the usual Sherpa lined jackets and shirt styles from Jo-o-Kay.

For sure a keeper. If 99.99999% of people knew the stuff that we obsess about, we would be roundly mocked and deserve it!

Good call. Not short enough to get rid of. I wear jackets that fit lengthwise like that.


Another 42 for you..

In a cowboy hat stingy would be 3” lol.
You can do that!!

IMO @ton312 that jacket fits you well. I know it's shorter than you like, but it doesn't look bad to me.

'40s Windward for me

My only vintage, and only brown jacket for me today. This one was given to me by the coolest, suede drenched hombre ever to grace the pages of the Lounge… when this showed up last year, all of my other brown jackets went away. Don’t know who made it, but it’s robust, simple, and the cut is crazy comfy.

That jacket is absolutely perfect on you! You did a fantastic job bringing it back to life!

I think I briefly owned that exact jacket. Looks 1000 times better on you than it did on me.

Thanks! I should probably wear it more often, but I tend to baby it

Would like to see a Pic zipped

I've never been entirely pleased with the fit on this jacket. I'm always conscious of extra room across the middle front between the coin pocket and the diagonal chest zipper, as if I've got a beer gut. And as one reviewer on the Schott website put it, the jacket does "blouse up" in the chest area when sitting. Maybe it's my posture, but I feel this jacket could have been cut a little more trim in the body.

Wow, that jacket really accentuates your shoulders and arms, Jake. Almost vintage giga-chad indeed lolololol.
