    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Lunch with friends in my trusty G-1 at NYC’s Fraunces Tavern, the oldest structure in the City (built 1719); a place where General George Washington had dinner with his fellow Continental Army Officers!

    Celebrities jackets

    Depp has been in the news lately more for his financial troubles than for his iconic style or his acting. It’s a shame because he’s a good actor and does indeed wear some great leather jackets!

    Celebrities jackets

    A couple years ago I was at a vintage clothing flea market in Brooklyn. Johnny Depp was there, browsing the racks of clothes (all by himself, no girlfriend, no bodyguard, no “entourage “). He seemed like just another regular Joe. We all knew who he was but no one bothered him for an autograph or...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Exploring Arizona in my US Authentic horsehide G-8; Phoenix, Sedona, the Grand Canyon for afew days and then finding a mysterious spirit totem on the Navaho reservation (no one knows how old it is or what it’s used for). The horsehide has handled everything: hot desert sun, howling winds off the...

    Neil Armstrong in his G-1; he flew combat missions during the Korean War at the age of 20 (flying the Grumman F9F Panther jet with VF-51 off USS ESSEX).

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Explored “The Vessel”, a $200 million stairway-to-nowhere sculpture in NYC’s Hudson Yards development. Wearing my G-1, I happened upon section G-1 of The Vessel;)

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Finally scored a Willis & Geiger leather map case off eBay (I’ve been on the hunt for a long time!). And my new favorite jacket, the Gibson & Barnes Civil G-1 on a chilly, blustery St. Patrick’s Day.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Definition of a true “Grab it and go” jacket: It’s 3:30am, you have to shovel out your vehicle in freezing temperatures AND drive the unplowed roads to make it to work by 5am! Today, facing exactly this scenario, I grabbed my G&B Civil G-1 (with goose down liner).:D

    Suggestions for a mouton collar?

    How about a blue mouton collar? Versace was selling this for $8,795! In all seriousness, dark blue mouton would look pretty cool on a black MC jacket! The dark blue mouton collar on a BR B-15C is a prime example of how good it looks.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Cold and blustery out in the harbor with 50 mph gusts and choppy seas and salt spray flying everywhere. My G&B Civil G-1 (with goose down insulated inner liner) kept me warm and dry.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Having just bought a slightly oversized Gibson & Barnes Civil G-1 off the ‘bay at a great price, I decided to experiment and perform a little jacket surgery (a “Jacket-ectomy”? Lol). I opened up the inner lining and inserted a lightweight Eddie Bauer goose down jacket and then sewed the whole...

    Cooper G-1

    My Cooper G-1 has both the big blue “civilian” style label and a mil-spec white nomenclature tag. I suspect that Cooper needed to fulfill their military G-1 contract anyway they could and just supplied the Navy with whatever they had in their factory. Either they added the white label to their...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Slogging thru a big winter storm; snow, ice, sleet, rain, and zero visibility in the harbor. I wore my Gibson & Barnes Civil G-1 (roomy enough for a turtleneck and a thick fleece vest). Stay safe out there guys!

    G-8 again today; heavy rain in the forecast for this evening so I’ll get to see how the horsehide repels water.
