What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Bennarion]

Schott Special Horsehide Onestar. Still trying to break this in, but I love wearing it even while stiff. The hat is a Barbisio, also a pleasure to wear.

Two guns up for Aero(and being able to still rock the leather)

Not sure where you got that idea from, but I hang all of my blazers and suit jackets buttoned for the exact same reason above.

I can't remember the original source which discussed the cut of the front half of the blazer vs the back, but if you hang a jacket unbuttoned you'll see that one side overlaps the other, and if the buttons were done it will wrinkle the front.

This is what my search on google just brought up:

A suit coat should be hung unbuttoned to prevent strain on the buttons and buttonholes, which can lead to damage over time, especially if the jacket is heavy or has been worn for a long period; leaving it unbuttoned allows the fabric to relax and maintain its shape while hanging.


Key points about hanging a suit coat unbuttoned:

• Reduces stress on buttons:
  When a jacket is buttoned while hanging, the pressure on the buttons and buttonholes can cause them to stretch or even tear, especially if the fabric is delicate.
  
  
  
• Preserves the shape:
  Unbuttoning allows the jacket to hang naturally, preventing wrinkles and maintaining its intended silhouette.
  
  
  
• Improves longevity:
  By minimizing strain on the closure points, unbuttoning can help extend the lifespan of your suit jacket.

Thanks!
The hats are my main thing on the Lounge, but I like to pop across here once in a while.

Not today, but a Mister Freedom denim and a Penman Adventurebilt Indy. Taken at a time when I had a smaller closet and foolishly sold these on.

I posted my entire jacket collection here a while back, and a few people asked what my favourite jacket was. I have a new answer.

This jacket seems to juggle refined / preppy and sporty / rugged so well.

The only thing I would change is to make the leather a bit more waterproof (i believe it’s a naked cowhide).

It’s a golden bear. I’m not exactly sure the model as I bought it used and I don’t think it’s still for sale

Nothing says I’m shopping for Thanksgiving dinner quite like the Bronx. Haha. This forum has inspired me to wear stuff I haven’t worn in years, me and my Bronx thank you.
