Thanks for your compliment. Jeans are RRL.

I love the versatility of this jacket. Great for a night out yet also perfectly suited for a day at the office.

Thanks! Are those fades real genuine or pre-distressed? If pre-distressed they got to be the nicest I’ve seen.

Yes, Skye 3.

On Monday Crockett and Jones will lounge their webshop. Can you imagine they didn't have one until now!?

I also read that they offer mto and mtm at their Paris store. Wonder if I can get a pair of c&j in a fun color like green for instance.

Yep, I heard about the webshop, for the time being it will not cover EU.
I've got all my C&J's from retailers. Once I've used their mail order for a shell belt.

Glad to see that jacket went to the right person! Fit looks great on you!

Thank you! Its a good start to vintage jackets, I love how relaxed the leather is. It might be sacrilege but I'm having the sleeves trimmed/shortened so I can wear this better.



5* CR. I like it a lot, it keeps me warm with the quilted lining.

That looks so much better with a little wear already, nice!

The Y’2 Leather vest came in from Japan (finally). The teacore Horsehide is similar to the one on the Iron Heart IHJ-35 cafe, which is to say freaking amazing. It is cut more like a jacket with no sleeves and a little thinner to wear even indoors. The stitches are straight and consistent. The vest feels great on. Keeps the torso warm without becoming heated.

I have described the Iron Heart IHJ-35 cafe jacket as a heavy quilted blanket that falls and folds in your hands. The Y’2 Leather vest does the same, except that it’s thinner and lighter, yet substantial enough to feel that the maker has taken pride in constructing this vest.

Apologies for the crass photos below, taken quickly early this morning while still in my PJs.

It’s a bit ironic that I like this paltry H&M jacket as much as I do. Ironic and sad. Nevertheless, it is what it is. That’s my legacy. The mall jacket guy. LOL. See you at the food court or Ruby Tuesday’s, Musicland, etc...

Discovering a jacket like that at an H&M is like discovering a Cinnabon shop next door as you walk out of the Ruby Tuesday.
