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

Described as black but looks Blue to me...

Looks blue to me too. And too small for me...

I wish I could find a company to make me a bespoke cord jacket with reasonable price. I already sent a question to Himel for this one, but its not yet available for order, and its bound to be VERY pricey, I believe.

Blanket lined and fully reversible... This might very well become my first Himel jacket regardless of price! Although I think the chest pocket is quite goofy...

I still like that train one most, and by far.

Crap, posted this in a wrong thread just a while ago... Well anyway, once again, just got this thing out of the box.

No way I could pull this off!

Sweet jacket Jonesy. Look what I found in my “Hall of Armor (Ton, 2018, TFL)”.

Nice photos. I love the way that brown shines through the black in certain light.

You'd be surprised. I thought that too and I've been wearing it all day yesterday.

This Aero blizzard from the sales page arrived Tuesday this week and today I had some time to take a couple of pictures on my way to the office.

It’s a size 40 made from Blackened Brown Vicenza, measures Pit to Pit: 24.25", Sleeve: 25.25", Back: 31.25", Shoulder: 19".

Sleeves are half an inch shorter than ideal for me, but I think it works. It’s definitely warm with the shearling shawl collar. It’s sized as an overcoat so I can easily wear it over a suit jacket if I want to. The cuffs are lined in corduroy which was a nice surprise. Overall, I’m happy with it and almost longing for weather that’s cold enough to wear it.

Unique design, leather and fit looks great. Thats a keeper!

 

[marmalademan]

It's a cool coat @torjord and i'll apply that to the sleeves too. This length makes you look like you're in command.

It's the Berliner jacket by Spada. It's a full-on riding jacket with armour and waterproof membrane etc. But I've always loved this four-pocket Barbour International style (I have three Barbour Internationals!), and as I'm in the process of getting my bike licence...

Not too sure yet, I'd never ridden before last week when I did my CBT. I've got the theory test tomorrow, and then DAS lined up. I might get a 125 to practice on for a couple of months, but I imagine I'll get something like an older SV650 as a first proper bike.

Don't want anything too expensive as I'm bound to throw it down the road at some point!

Are you doing one of the riding school courses? I've been planning to do this myself the last couple of years - hopefully in 2019. My plan then is to buy a 250cc Mutt; I don't really need a big bike and I want something cheap to run. Plus the Mutt in the right paintjob does look awfully like a Tiger Cub, which is a nice bonus. Maybe one day I might consider a used Royal Enfield Classic 500 if I want something bigger.

Spada, that's the one. I rather like it in that colour; I'm also very tempted by the biscuit-brown-tan version of this style by GoldTop.

Nice rockabilly for the Winter vibe.

I've really taken to the look of these coats recently; so it actually is long enough to wear over a blazer? That does make them even more attractive. I'm tempted by one of these as a Winter jacket that's less of a bum freezer than my B3 / Irvins.

I know I often say this on Aero jackets and I swear it's got nothing to do with bias or me being a fanboi - but this simply is a stunning coat. The leather, details and especially the shade of shearling, it all just works so well.

I find it that slightly shorter sleeves (shorter than I'd normally prefer on a leather jacket) work better with a coat than long ones. It takes very little to make a coat look too big and sleeves are one thing that keep it in check. I think this Blizzard looks perfect on you.

Yup, doing DAS through the same school I did my CBT with. I've got it pre-booked, but no dates fixed yet. That sort of depended how the Theory Test went today, but fortunately I passed. Then I wandered around the corner to have a nose around a local bike shop, and it turns out they're a dealer for Royal Enfield (which I thought were consigned to history). I checked over their Himalayan, which looked pretty ace to my ignorant eye.

I only really wanted a bike for commuting, and have been drilling over the Mutt stuff. But almost everybody that I've talked to who knows bikes, has suggested I'd need something bigger than a 250 for what I'm after.

I also love the look of the Fantic Caballero, too!

Is it appropiate to say that I hate you? That looks so amazing that you made me pull the trigger on the Eastman Leather version...no way I will find another close to my size for cheaper specially now with the price hike from ELC. The black Luftwaffe version doesn't have the handwarmer pockets though, only the brown does.

Time to sell the 3-4 leather jackets before next 1st of November.

This jacket has been hanging on Ebay for a while, listed finished a while ago then it got relisted a couple times with the lowest price this time... only $420 shipping included which is basically $1000 less than a new one. I think I will give this one to my family and save it as a gift for my Birthday in November(Since I can't wear it anyway until winter) and that will save me money.

I can't wait to wear it with my navy Vespa during winter. It would also look gorgeous if I ever get a Black Douglas Motorcycle.
