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

I think this Shinki is nice:

This Italian Horsehide is OK too:

But then again, this Horween Horsehide ain't too shabby either:

You actually took these back with you!? Like, packed them and all!?? XD
I slept on the flight from Munich to Los Angeles wearing the Thedi I picked up in Greece, on the shorter flights it went in the overhead.
I first arrived in HAWAI’I with one checked box, 50 lbs. max and one carry on bag.

I brought 2 jackets with me, the GW goatskin Cossack, and the GW Arcadia horsehide two-tone. A lot of my other jackets were mailed to me, and one or two brought by visiting family and friends.
I still have some in storage in California, and I have picked up one or two since moving to Kauai, and I’m glad I did. It got down to 63°F last night. Brrrrr.

3 YEARS in storage!? Letting it age like a fine wine, eh Jonesy?
They fared well in a dry climate, folded in half, bagged, boxed and put in a storage unit in The Central Valley of California. Here I have to fight off the mold that likes to grow on leather. I rotate them out of the closet, wear them when the weather permits, and wipe them off with vinegar water and put them in the sun when it is out, but it will rain here, then be sunny frequently from one moment to the next.

Not even exaggerating. Jonesy is my north star of where I want to be in like 10-15?? years. Panama hats, shorts, leather jackets, beach, slippahs. #Goals
15 years ago I didn’t have a clue where I would be now. I don’t have a clue where I’ll be in 15 years either. These days I try to appreciate life one day at a time, and try to accept both the good and the bad.
