Took a stroll in my stupid-heavy HWM, the thought process being that the government spoke up against going out unnecessarily and with this thing weighting me down, I wouldn't come far anyway.

@Boyo that is a fantastic looking jacket! Perfect fit, and a great vintage look.
@jacketjunkie you’ve nailed it on that Hwymn! I think that’s the casual look we all want...Doesn’t fit better than that!

I work in healthcare so I’ve been extremely busy and preoccupied. In any case a few weeks ago the last time I was on, I posted a photo here on my way to a photo shoot with my fiancé. There were two themes 1930s and 50s early 60s. I didn’t include all of the 50s shots I didn’t want to post 20 photos. I included 0 of the 1930s as that was suit and tie costume. In any case I hope you all enjoy these as much as I did taking them. The hat was from a local store here in Buffalo called O’Connells, jacket is 50s Sears Oakbrook. Jeans are Pure Blue Japan, and shoes are George Cox Strummer Shoes. George Cox have been making Creepers in the UK for forever, including this model. Which they renamed after Joe Strummer (Vocals/Guitar The Clash) after he bought several pairs over the years.

I forgot to say one thing. The one at the table where my fiancé’s arms are up and I’m making a fist. The photographer wanted me to throw a piece of popcorn in her mouth and we nailed it first try. That was her excitement and me being proud of myself haha

I'm sure that's not the case in Germany too but here in Croatia, for the whole month now, the government has been recommending everyone to stay at home because the disease spreads much slower outside which is why it is recommended to spend as much time outside, in fresh air, as long as we don't leave our homes because staying put spreads the virus.

I am acting accordingly.

I've always liked this jacket and have come close to buying one. Nice to see one being worn. Makes me want one again.

These are brilliant! You guys look awesome. And you know what, you just made me realize I need to keep my Sears Oakbrook. I think it fits us the same and if it looks 30% as good on me, no freaking way I'm letting go of that jacket.

 

[Robbie79]

Better pics from the outside wearing my broken-in LW Buco. One of my most comfy leather jackets...took some time to be broken in though...

Layered up on this rainy day with a beat Cal Leather horsehide cafe racer.

Too damn cool, both of you.

Thanks!

Good call! Like I kind of hinted in your sale post. I have jackets that beat it in almost every category. Better this and better that. There’s not one thing on it that stands out or kills it. But for some reason it just works. I love it. And it fits so well. Id say damn near perfect. So I don’t know what it is that it has, but it has it, loads of “it.”

Hey regius, i thought you would appreciate this. I got a new Arcadia recently and I learned from john that the piping on them (and this campus) is 1/4 inch nylon rope up under the leather, a strip of leather also is sewn behind the rope to keep it in place, cool design!

thanks for this! Yes, I am familiar with the anatomy. I love the piping design!

Channeling my inner @handymike

with leather jacket and sandals today.
1940's? Moosehide? Half Belt. I'd like to get it relined and touched up by Johnson Leathers, some rayon with storm cuffs so the sleeve sits right.
