New member intro and two Levi’s jackets

[zacharge]

Hi all,

New member here from San Francisco, CA. I grew up in the punk / oi! / hardcore scene since the early 00s so my love of leather jackets, denim, and boots have always been a mainstay. I’ve gravitated towards the more “classic” Americana style within the last 5 years or so. Just wanted to share two of my favorite jackets-

1. Levi’s type 3 leather jacket. Short horn “western wear” in a size small. Fits perfectly

2. Levi’s type 2 denim jacket. Made in Japan, 1990s. I added a leather patch to the front.

Welcome. Both jackets are absolute classics. A picture of you wearing them would be nice.

BTW, I wouldn’t have guessed there was still a punk scene at that time in SF.
My wife grew up in the Berlin punk scene in the late 1980s and boy what stories she can tell.

Thank you for the welcome. Love both jackets a lot. I have been wearing both in rotation for the past year almost nonstop! Here is a pic of myself at a museum in front of some carnivorous plants (I am also the current the president of the Bay Area carnivorous plant society haha, and work with wildlife as a profession). Also a random pic, ha.

That’s awesome! Im sure the stories are amazing, ha! 80s punk is def my favorite era.
There actually seems to have been a huge resurgence of punk (mostly hardcore and oi) here in SF within the last 5 or so years. Pretty interesting to see and hear the new bands.
I used to be in a few bands when I was younger and put out records and toured, etc. Nice to see the things are still going

The Avengers ?

Gotta love the Avengers, classic SF punk. As a teen, I really liked the quintessential SF/Bay Area hardcore bands like Crucifix, Social Unrest, etc.

The jacket fits perfectly. Cool
