I have given up the idea of wearing a double breasted leather top coat but thought why not a single breasted. Seems however thay are not easily found. The Aero Noreaster and Veste de Rallye are too short. I am thinking something that goes to about one or two inches above the knee with...
I have a sample of this. I washed it, twisted it, bent it and wore it out. It isn't blue enough for me. In fact it looks like cold black, not anything like midnight blue. Definitely get a sample before you decide.
Does anyone have the Dickies regular fit straight leg DUCK jeans? There is some contradictory info out there on the leg opening, anywhere from 16 to 18 inches. They look a bit baggy for a regular fit. I am looking for something straight but not too wide.
Also, does Dickies do vanity...
I swore I would never wear chinos until I tried Bonobos, which didn't have the saggy shapeless look I hated. From that time on, I have worn my own interpretation of the Indy look, something I always loved....except the brown jacket.
handymike, I definitely meant khaki as a color.
I was convinced by someone a few years back that black shoes and khaki colored pants don't look so good as brown shoes. I realize black can go with anything but I wonder if the effect of the combination is that it looks acceptable but obviously...
Just a note about color. Do you favor one color over another and are just trying to consider all options or are you really pulled equally in each direction? I suggest that if you have had a lifelong preference for one color, say black, and the brown is something that just recently seemed...
I'd like some opinions on double breasted leather jackets. What about them? Anything really. How they look. How easy or difficult to wear. Wearing them open. Who looks good in them and who looks bad. Anything else that you might think of.
Personally, I am a short guy and have been...
I really think the negative comments are in the wearer's head. People aren't thinking about you and your clothes constantly and not to such a degree. If someone does think "gestapo", I doubt they will call the National Guard out. They will probably let the thought pass and admire how nice you...
That picture of the guy in the Barnstormer is one that i have admired fpr a while. Unfortunately, shroter guys may not be able to pull that off either.
Bottom line for me is...wear what you are. If you think you are a leather trenchcoat guy and feel comfortable in it, you probably will look...
I like the black trenchcoat. If you can wear a black leather motorcycle jacket you should be able to wear a trench coat. If you are an angry loner, don't get one. Use the money to get help for your problem instead.
Personally I am too short to wear any coat below the knees. If I had a few...
Exactly my concern. I feel though, that I don't need much layering beyond a very light sweater. That's what I have been doing with my 141, wearing it in temps from 55 F down to whatever. Of course I am not walking around for hours in zero degree weather. Our cold here is not Chicago cold or...
Thanks for the help.
The main reason for my concern is I am getting a Sheene, which is a close fitting jacket. A barnstormer wouldn't cause me much concern. I will be wearing a light weater under it and probably not standing outside for hours. Looks like alpaca or moleskin.
Is there a...
