    Lets see those Motorcycle Jackets!

    Today I wore my latest riding jacket for the first time. It's a Knox Urbane Pro, which is an armoured, abrasion resistant base layer designed to be worn under whatever jacket you fancy, or even as a super airy jacket in its own right. I wore it under my Johnson Motors Roustabout dry wax jacket...

    Bronson sale

    I got this email too. So tempted by some of their stuff. Hopefully my eBay listings will bear fruit in time to take advantage of the Bronson discounts.

    Best way to treat a heavily creased leather jacket?

    I love the gold rims on a GS. I'm sorely tempted to get the rims on my little Trumpet refurbed in gold when I do some things to it over the winter.

    Y’2 Leather Fit did I miss the mark?

    Sizing looks perfect. The more you wear it the better it will feel, but as an onlooker it fits excellently.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    No jacket today. It's bloody boiling mate! (Although I have three new jackets in the post to me as I write this; a denim trucker, a cowhide cafe racer and a UHMWPE armoured mesh jacket for riding)

    @sensy that's horse, right? Their horsehide seems very good value. How do you find it?

    Beck 666r ? I have this old beck jacket in amongst my collection of schotts . All my schotts are 44" this is a jacket I bought years ago . I was told

    Me too! Although @handymike is a slimmer 38 than me, it turns out.

    I bought and RMC Buco j-24 and found a scar on the leather. Help me determine if it’s considered character or not.

    This, I think. I wouldn't expect to be at all dissatisfied having spent that sort of money on anything.

    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    I was just looking at a vintage cross zip on eBay that has a removable fleece/Borg/Sherpa/wev collar. I love it and my brain had decided to buy it already, before I realised that I have just actually bought a cross zip that's perfect - and all I need to do is make/buy a collar to go on it. Who...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    I love a Type II, but sadly the pleats give me away if I pack on a little extra timber.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    No jacket today, it's been boiling hot for the Queen's Jubilee here in the UK. I've been at a garden party today and made a bit of an effort. But still wearing motorcycle boots and a Cone Mills denim shirt.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I have an olive waxed cotton Barbour International which is the perfect (for me) every-jacket-that-isn't-leather option. I'm thinking now I might get a Five Star G8 in brown that I can layer under the Barbour for weather, or over an armoured Kevlar base layer for the bike, or over a t shirt for...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I feel this too. My personal ideal is to eventually get a jacket that can be a single item solution for all occasions. All weather, every day, and for the bike too. It's just talking me an awful lot of tries to get there.
