Over 50 wearing leather jackets

[Lebowski]

Thank you Leb. I see you have a good hat eye too!
That’s a 50-60s Borsalino and a favorite of mine.
I’d be happy to track something down for you if you tell me your size.
There’s a “My blue heaven” thread in case you want to see some more.
Thanks again.
Bowen

Thanks Bowen, will thankfully read that! I'm 7 1/2 - 7 5/8 in hats.

Your welcome Leb.
Well right off i see you are in the big head club. Blue and big head will require patience. I’ll put some feelers out and keep my eyes open. I’d love to find you a good one.
Do check out the blue thread. Note member’s hats of your size and liking. PMs work for hat guys too. Many pics and old members are gone but you never know. Just like jackets.

Yep, still over 50, and still wearing leather jackets.
Rainy and cold today (72), perfect island leather jacket and fedora weather.

that guy is 80?????? Holy cow. God bless him!! My dad was afraid to go up a few stairs when he turned 80, much less ride a motorcycle.

Yes indeed. Just today we had a 37 member Harley ride to celebrate my oldest riding mate's 90th !

Here he is at the start of the run , almost facing the camera in his genuine US made HD branded "Brando" jacket.

3rd from the right and smiling (as usual !). Rides a Harley Ultra trike these last 5 years , on a solo Harley until then !

IT USED TO BE WINE, WOMEN AND SONG - NOW ITS BEER THE OLD LADY AND TV.

Shout out to all veterans - me, USN 1975-1979. You're never too old for leather, motorcycles and women but moderate on the booze! Langlitz Columbia - heading out for my traditional Veteran's Day ride - a nice warm 50 degrees today with only 10% chance of rain! whooopeee!

CR should be Aero's flagship. No matter how many times I see one that fits right, I'm always amazed what a good looking jacket it is. You wear it brilliantly.

thanks
I currently have them in classifieds. But I'm not sad either when the jacket stays with me

Lol, I don't mind you posting photos in more threads but it's the same photo. XD

Having been ragged here for "the same photo" before now , this is indeed NOT the same photo. Only maybe 5 seconds between them , so SIMILAR photo , but NOT the same..The backdrop don't lie.
Bearing in mind I am having non photographer mates take the snaps on my Samsung.
"Artistic direction" would not be well delivered and even less well received haha..
The guy who took both those 5 second apart snaps is a 74 year old Aussie Vietnam Veteran, no nonsense kinda type !

 

[Downunder G Man]

Post breakfast coastal shot , surfers a plenty in the backdrop. Good surfing 6 foot plus clean swell.
Eastman Luftwaffe the choice for a cool start day. 62 next stop haha...
NOT the same photo as the 'What jacket" thread

Vanson Sturgis today , vented for our 14c start and 27c finish. Snap taken at today's "burger stop".
My riding companions today were , 90,80,74,67,63 and me the "youngest" at coming on 62..
Where else would you rather be ?
