What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[X83]

As usual, your styled outfit overall is impressive. The jacket is impressive, the matching shoes are impressive, but what is most impressive is your ability to walk around and not get smacked in the groin with that hanging glasses case.

It works well didn’t hit me once but the second it does I will have no choice to report back

Where I live, it’s just cool enough now to wear this new (to me) Mid-Western fringe deerskin jacket from the 1960s(?)

Double post: Padded Al’s yesterday for a departed icons themed Halloween party—I imagine a few here will be able to identify the icon (and era) in question…? (apologies to anyone offended by the approx 1cm of costume-accurate chest on display here)

And today a new (to me) Branded Garments. I love the dramatic collar, minimalist pocket setup, horizontal fit, and heavy leather, not so sure about the length and the fact that it seems to have belonged to a smoker at some point…

I love the jacket, fit and the general outfit way more in the 1st pic!

613US from Japan. The best modern Schott pattern I’ve ever experienced.

Chillier than yesterday, Schott x 3sixteen A2 to the office.

First day I wore it I pondered if a smaller size would had been better, although it would probably not be as comfortable as this one. Today as I put on my backpack, my first thought was that if it was a smaller size I would had struggled to do so, so this is the correct size.

Vanson Ike (customized) today. This Pinnacle hh is unbelievably comfortable. It’s starting to develop that burnished shine, although my photo doesn’t really capture it.

This picture is a little better.

Its interesting because your jacket looks really nice and well-made, but the Vanson website pics are not doing them any favors, with the type III leather denim-style piece looking particularly poor.

Whoever that model is they are using who is older than me and I am no spring chicken, and is rather rotund, well maybe its time they re-evaluated that choice. They should pay you a royalty and use your image wearing the Ike, it fits you quite well and your picture is better and more appealing.

I couldn't pull this particular jacket off, but it's a nice piece.
Midwestern sport togs had great quality deerskin.

so around 6 months ago lady luck blessed me with a new Aero jacket, the 'Outlander'. Aero ran a competition on their instagram page, with the prize being a sample Outlander and yours truly won it. I know, I couldn't believe it either. But wait, it gets better........the jacket fits pretty much perfect, which was a long shot. A couple of other odd things to note. I worked on seasons 1&2 of the TV show Outlander. Furthermore I had been curious about sheepskin jackets for a while - although I never would have got around to buying one, it was an itch. Well Autumn is here and I am finally getting to wear this beauty in the real world.........my new favourite Aero jacket, what ya'll think?

Although their website leaves much to be desired, their jackets do not. Their patterns and wonderful and their jackets are designed to withstand getting off a motorcycle at high speed. Vanson doesn’t mess around. I’ve owned many of their jackets from early 2000’s to present and they have all been extremely well made and will certainly outlive me.

A number of folks here have their Maverick jacket and they look fantastic.

Very nice jacket - clean lines and the leather in the 2nd image (as you noted) highlights the finer grain and developing creases along the sleeves.

I wasn't aware that you could obtain a Vanson with different leather other than that Comp , Firenze & Z150. I guess if you contact them directly then additional options are available beyond their website - which is aggravating to use to say the least.
