    Coldest Weather I've been in

    It's only -5C today, which isn't too bad, but here's the snow situation in my sideyard as of approx 1:00 PM today (click for large pic). It's still coming down as of dinner time, and is expected to keep up all night.

    It appears the pockets on your jacket are about the same level as Borgnine's. Either way, it's a really great jacket.

    Excellent photo, well spotted. Quite the variety of outerwear.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I agree about the cap, it looks amazing. I'm surprised an amateur could make a cap with a peak and crown that look so awesome. Well done, Michael.

    Biker jacket

    My guess is not. I'm no expert, but the change pocket on Warhol's jacket doesn't match the shape of vintage Schott jackets I've seen in photos, quite different in fact. I'm thinking stained + age?

    Obama's leather jacket.

    Looks like the same jacket he was photographed wearing a few months back.

    Vintage Photos of Leather Jackets

    Great pics, everyone. I'm intrigued by the full-auto 1911 and I particularly like John Candy's police jacket. Regarding non-military photos, it's surprising to me how many men (apparently) wore short leather jackets as daily drivers.

    2 x Filson bush safari jackets, style 53, used... approx size 42R

    For sale two Filson bush (safari) jackets, one green, one tan. Both are the older style #53 which has the box pleat on the back and bellows pockets on the skirts (later models had a bi-swing back and patch pockets). These are used and worn but are both very wearable and look the stuff, like old...

    Nomex Flyer jacket

    That's great, glad you like them. I really like nomex jackets, better than nylon to me, and up here in Canada you never see nomex. I think Valley made the best quality ones, based on the various brands I've seen. It's hard to say why exactly, but when you've got a bunch lying there on the bed...

    Good to know, thanks. The original shiny ones feel like silk, the later shiny ones like nylon. But canvas?... yuck.

    ALL ORIGINAL Irvin RAF type Jackets - Loving that Wolf in sheeps' clothing!

    Just like with USAF nylon jackets, no public records were kept on how many were made or by who, or when, etc. The further back you go in time, the fuzzier everything gets, and the number of things in sharp focus shrinks rapidly.

    You are correct. I've seen photos of Bush #43 and ex-VP Biden in 36P jackets, too.

    Good fit on that last one, I like the hard herringbone wool. I have a coat made from a very similar cloth and it's tough although not too warm. I also like your black jacket with red shirt, blue tie, and grey pants. It's a nice look and not something one sees these days.
