Glad you pulled out your dark green cross-zip again there. I would really appreciate something like that down the road. Boots are sharp too!

^^ 100% agree!
My most-commented jacket ever was a Vanson Star - which has plenty of color, and character.

Much too hot for a leather jacket of this weight but I just got it in the mail from tweedydon via Monitor and have to rock it! Could maybe use a less busy background for the pic though lol.
Still dialing in how I like a Perfecto to fit but I would say I'm pretty happy with this one!

This Schott wool mechanic jacket (not idea what model it is) has been with me for years, needs new pockets, too big now, but it's warm and comfy, ideal for work/dog walking.

I'm not actually wearing this out and about because it's too hot, but I want to give a shout-out to this Sears Leather Shop crosszip.
Like so many items in my closet (hats, shoes, jeans) I could have stopped at this one. Instead I went all the way around the world with leather only to rediscover this last week and say, "gee... this really is a great jacket."
Just at 4 pounds without the belt (previous owner cut it off).
I don't love the glossy finish but I love the jacket so I'll keep it just like it is. The fit is amazing, the leather is buttery-soft but substantial, the hardware is meaty and functions great, the interior is inviting and comfortable and I love the arm rolls in this thing.
There's not much appreciation here for these 70s and 80s Sears Jackets but if others are like this one, then I'll vouch for them. Absolutely worth the $100 I paid for it and seriously, I could have stopped here (not that I'm complaining about my collection, just saying that the quality on this Sears is satisfying enough).

The boots are the star today. While the jacket is a Fine Creek Top Field in black tea core horse hide, the boots are from Nova and made of dark burgundy Guidi horsebutt. They’re both beautiful and comfy. Nova is a relatively new Chinese maker of high end boots.

Thanks, Hannes! Now I just need to trade my suburban driveway for a waterfront backdrop and maybe I'll look a quarter as effortlessly cool as you do in your pics.

Every time I see this jacket I think, da** that's a beautiful color. I really enjoy seeing it in the different lighting. Thanks, gents!
