How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

Just bought a Dainese d dry tempest 3 jacket, new,just in case i fk up and get caught out in the rain ,have to spendthemoneyi put by for the Schott 618 I missed out on .

I really don’t know why but I recently had a feeling that my life would be complete if I could cosplay as an Ivy League preppy guy. So I bought a cricket sweater and a navy blue club blazer.
As I said, I don’t really know why I wanted this cause this style is normally worn by annoying rich people who are into sailing, golfing and horse polo. But here we are. I’ll report back if these items made me feel whole.

I totally get it. Some preppy style looks really good, even if the wearers are douche bags.

I bought a couple of cricket jumpers a while ago, leaning into my Australian heritage. I like the look of them, but wearing them in the US I felt a bit like I was cosplaying a Brett Easton Ellis character off to the country club.

Another example of context being everything, like why I won’t wear western stuff while living in Texas. But I can’t imagine what cultural contexts these have in your neck of the woods.

I still wear the tweedy and corduroy sports jackets I got at the same time. I now call that my ‘looking like an alcoholic history teacher era’

It was a big Easter weekend for me. Just bought a Premier Half belt from Fonzi. Thank you Fonzie. And a new ELMC Californian from Historical preservation for $950 all in. It was on clearance. Filled with anticipation now. Happy Easter y’all!
