    Let's talk about wool coats, jackets, and vests

    The interwar ( 70's ) USGI og108 field shirt isn't particularly thick but it's a decent quality wool and is very versatile/ utilitarian.

    Let's talk about wool coats, jackets, and vests

    I didn't have this WH Shaffer co vest either. The 2 layers of wool on this are so dense and substantial.

    Let's talk about wool coats, jackets, and vests

    I don't believe I had this grey vest from C&C sutlery when I started this thread.

    Let's talk about wool coats, jackets, and vests

    It reminds me that I still need to find something in a blue dominant plaid like that. I've got enough red and I've got some green ( my favorite of course) but nothing in blue yet.

    Let's talk about wool coats, jackets, and vests

    Awesome old jacket there. I tend to prefer longer stuff when it comes to wool because I'm used to it keeping my rear end warm, but I'm not against something like that. Actually I'd really like to eventually get something like it.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    A couple weeks ago my uncle saw my pioneer wear western trucker and said " hey John Denver ", he's probably the type who would jokingly say " Eyyyyy ! " or " hey fonzie " to somebody wearing a black cross zip but most people probably not say or think anything of it. No clue why he connected a...

    Steve Bedo alters a Perfecto

    I appreciate that he understands the things he works on. Most people might just add length at the end, but he understood that longer zippers would look odd so he added the length in a much less noticeable way.

    Does anybody here add personal touches for their leather jackets?

    Sounds like an interesting idea for a jacket.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Possibly. Everything else aside from the shoulders and arm length are about right for the other size 36 denim jackets I have.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I just got this big Smith in the mail that I'm wearing today, but I'm not too crazy about the fit. It's a nice dark blue denim, the quality overall is nice, I like the blanket lining, and I like the shoulder gussets on the back. The shoulders hang over a bit and the sleeves are a little long...

    Does anybody here add personal touches for their leather jackets?

    A pin, or an actual single action revolver ? I could imagine either being a problem in LA ( a place I'll never go ) , I hate going to the city and am happy to live in a small rural-ish town in northern California that is surrounded by farms and orchards. I usually have to go into the city for...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    It's wet today so I decided to wear my old sew sew m65, my dad wasn't issued a liner with it and I haven't bought one for it but the OG108 field shirt fills in well enough. I just realized that both are 1977 dated too.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Would this actually be a desirable jacket it it weren't a fake or faux aged ? Would somebody actually pay $300+ for a used Chinese made jacket ?

    You can only wear one jacket for the rest of your life- do you go black or brown?

    If this is just about my pick for the category of leather jacket, then that's brown because I don't really care for black leather jackets. If this is just about a one and only jacket, then that's M81 woodland camo because the genuine issue USGI m65 field jacket is the perfect most versatile...

    You can only wear one jacket for the rest of your life- do you go black or brown?

    Because the choices are only black and brown I assume this means only 1 leather jacket for the rest of your life ?

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    my beloved JWM cruiser. My favorite part about it besides the color, is the tall thick collar I can unfold in the back to keep my neck and ears warm when it's cold. Johnson woolen mills doesn't do the best wool ever but it's not terrible. It has a lot of pilling, but I've seen worse and they...
