What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Great fit on that jacket @ton312 . I like the color a lot as well.

I don't think I've shown pics of how my new size 40 Mulholland fits yet. I was able to trade my 42 with a friend on another forum for his size 40 version. It worked out brilliantly IMO.
The jacket is significantly shorter than the size 42 and it looks much better as a result IMO. It doesn't look that short given how ridiculously high the rise on these jeans is (13.5" front rise on size 31 jeans), but the back is actually 23.75". I think Ideally, I'd have a 23" or 22.5" back on my jackets, but I'd have to go bespoke for that...

This one looks best on you for sure. And while I like to see jackets in different colors, to me, black leather jacket like that is the reason that got me into this hobby. Brown jacket is just brown. Black jacket is all the colors around it.

Couple different looks today-- am and pm :)

aero midnight blue cafe racer along with an Akubra Bushman while I'm trying to run into a Kardashian in Calabasas:

and this bad boy. Finally got done washing it and reconditioning (3 coats of coconut oil, smells like a pina colada instead of 50 biker bars from the 80s LOL). It is a massive piece of leather. Going to see how I like it, but it fits amazing and the leather is ridiculous. Branded Garment CHP:

Looks beastly! Branded never fit skintight as other cross zips, they're pure equipment but that's what I love about 'em.

@dudewuttheheck the 42 looked great on you when you had it but that smaller size mulholland is fit goals right there

You've certainly got the look down that I think many strive for. Killer, man.


I'm curious as to what you request for your pit to pit on these customs. Rather, what's your ideal size? Amazing fit.



Easily the best fitting jacket you own or have owned. Can't get better in my opinion.

Thanks all. I was thrilled to be able to trade the 42 for the 40. The size difference isn't massive but the overall difference in appearance is quite notable for the better.

I love brown leather jackets, but this one does look best in black I think. The zippered handwarmer/slash pockets and design just scream black jacket.

This jacket fits you perfectly. The Mulholland looks best in black to me too. I am curious how the new FW jacket in brown Elk leather will look like... but so far I have neither seen photos nor heard detailed information.

Yeah they have a couple of releases that I'm really looking forward to. This pattern does seem to work for me.

You like that thing? It's a Levi's coat made only for a store window, has a tag NOT FOR SALE. What size are you again? I can send it to you if you want it.
Not for sale means it's a pre production sample if I'm not mistaken. Sometimes those are of low quality, with the sole purpose to convey the look and test the waters. Sometimes they're of better quality than the production run. Yes I like do like jackets like these. You don't?

I do but I rarely wear long jackets / coats. Dunno, just can't get used to it. I sometimes wear this one because it's very warm. It's of nice quality all around. nothing bad about it, just the sleeves are a bit short on me. :)
