Sorry, that's a funny reference point, Back to the Future. Marty does look good in the combination regardless.

When it's not summer, my Brando-style Vanson Thunderbird and Adventurebilt Fedora are pretty much my every-day outerwear uniform. You can definitely pull that look off, no problem.

I own a couple of Cafe Racer jackets (an Icon Retro Daytona - tons of patches-, and a Wilson's, dark brown with white racing stripes), and I think those are a bit harder to pull off with a fedora. At least, looking in the mirror, something doesn't look right when I'm wearing that combo. The Cafe Racer style seems more modern, and just kinda clashes style-wise with a fedora. A wide-brimmed one anyways. I think a stingy brim might work okay though.

I have one of those Icon retros in yellow/blackand I love it with any of fedoras. I have a few pics of me in it with my Fed IV and I think it looks great. Im not on my home computer so I'll have to post one later.

I also wear my fedoras with my black cafe racer jacket. It has two horizontal pinstripes across the chest about 4 inches apart. Also looks great together.

Of course, brown fedoras look great with brown leather jackets. I'll post one of me in my IJ jacket (bought used - brand unknown).

Heres that jacket/hat combo. Cant wait to wear it again this season.

Any grey or tan will do

how about a silver belly?

don't get me started on baby blue

By 'motorcycle jacket' I naturally assumed we meant 'leather.' Yes, cordura nylon motorcycle jackets are motorcycle jackets, but style-wise, they are not in the same realm as leather.

How about a waxed cotton Barbour International. Anyone think a fedora can go with that?
