What Jacket are you wearing 'this month?'

[Dr H]

It had warmed up a little for a few days so ELC A-1 in capeskin.

I refuse to read this thread until October...

It's been 100 f here the last couple of days with all the fires! Doesn't get much below 70 even at 4:00 in the morning. Even with my office air conditioner it's to hot for a light jacket.

14 oz raw selvedge denim can be a bit stiff... so I wear this denim jacket a lot to break it in.

Nice jacket!

I've been wearing my well-worn Wrangler 24 MJZ, but only when it's cool enough outside.

Sadly, even my denim Lee jacket is a blanket-lined model. Nothing for me for ~4 months now

I made a couple myself. I got the idea from watching "Spartacus" years ago. I patterned mine after the Woody Strode model, it's more of a wrap around. Also there's a couple of good examples in "Apocalypse Now". Loin cloths are very cool.
I made them out of FQWFD........Front Quarter Worn & Frayed Denim.

I'd show a pic to you guys but you would never go back to leather jackets!


Regards,

Lovely barnstormer. Do you find it heavy?

Sir J

Not heavy but substantial. In a positive way.

No summer weather in sight these days in Germany... so I´ll have a few more days with my jacket

 

[GriffDeLaGriff]

Its the same here, we had 2 weeks of heat and then it got cooler so I can wear the medium oil-pull. It even got so cold in the mornings that I wore the FQHH woho Now its all based on if we have sun or not. Clouds=jackets.

Yes Griff, the scandinavian countries are in for a nasty summer period right now. Not much summer in sight for the nearest future.
For 2 days ago, I was actually strolling my ALC Irvin jacket for a walk by the seaside, in only 7 degrees Celcius.
How about Norway these days?

Hi Edward
Put together I have spend nearly 3/4 of a year in Beijing for the last couple of years.
And you are absolutely right about the 35 degrees Celcius in the summer season ....though my chinese born wife and I also experienced a hefty snowstorm in start december in 2010, so they actually also know how a strong winter can be like.
Have you been in Beijing/China during bad weather situations too?

 

[GriffDeLaGriff]

Its not that bad here, we have from 9 all the way up to 20c somedays, like today.

 

[eClairvaux]

My current favorite: Rapha "Mac" jacket:

 

[Hepville]

Nice... looks like kind of "tailored outdoor jacket" to me...

 

[Smithy]

Bloody freezing here today, brass monkeys and all that. I doubt we hit double figures.

Hence Mister Irvin was the order of the day. And damn toasty he was too!

 

[Fanch]

Wish we could give up some of our 38 degree C in Dallas Texas to our Norsemen brethren.

 

[GriffDeLaGriff]

Thanks, I think many here would agree...me on the other hand think its perfect, now I can use some real clothes

Offcourse I want it warm for abit in the summer, but Im kinda tired of the fast weather change, it has been like Irvin weather..then*bam* its shorts and t-shirt time, and I´m like huh where is my Highwayman weather??

 

[Dr H]

Doniger/McGregor AN-J-3 in capeskin today - blustery wind and showers...

 

[penates]
