What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

^^
A very nice look. May I ask the brand of the pants? I am looking for canvas cream/whitish trousers to diversify from denim a bit.

@Imuricecreamman , your stlye's going toward something really cool. Not that it wasn't at any point but it's becoming more!

@Leigh H , really awesome. Fantastic. Great shirt! @navetsea you too matched the jacket and the shirt just neat!

@King B, this one fits you fantastically.

Sorry for spamming with so many pics but I'm just super happy with this jacket!!! It's the kind of trucker I was after from the beginning; Blanket lined leather Type-3 by Levi's. But I honestly thought it didn't exist but once again, Vinted (and Levi's) proved me wrong and provided. All thanks to @Marc mndt , yet again!

So yeah. While it's clearly not perfect when it comes to fit, since being made to be a proper choir piece, this jacket is very boxy and intended for heavy layering but it's exactly the kind of look, fit, vibe I was going after this whole time! Sadly, I'll have to wait for freaking MONTHS to wear it so these are all staged of course and back to t-shirts but it's good to have something extra to look forward to.

Leather is very soft suede-ish cowhide & it's lined with heavy blanked that's backed with... Something else. Very comfortable, super versatile and most importantly, I mean, just look at how cool this jacket is. To me. Of course.

That's a perfect look. Looking great!

You forgot to show the lining, which is beautiful.

I'll try to darken the whole jacket. Dunno if sun alone will do it but I wanna get it the same color as your racer.

Repost from the 5* thread. 5.5oz leather is no joke. This is my maximum threshold for self abuse. Turned out well though and I could stuff it with candy and get a side gig as a walking human piñata.

This is awesome. What is the weight of the jacket?

I don’t know how to add a gif but if i did it would be a suit of armor.

It’s surprisingly “light” at 7.5 lbs. That said it is insanely stiff and the thickest leather I’ve ever had in a jacket. Or anything leather tbh. I would liken it to boot leather.

It sure looks the biz! There's only one place to go form here, Antonius Maximus of the 312 Legion:

It took a couple of reads for it to sink in, but from now on...@AntoniusMaximus312 is the moniker!

Thanks to @Marc mndt heads up, I am now the happy (despite the expression, lol) owner of this pale (racing?) yellow 1960s/1970s Shields. Marc correctly guessed that this must be a 40, I put in a somewhat lowball offer which was accepted, and the rest is history. A direct opposite of the beast Ton is wearing above, the Shields is a lightweight jacket, and has joined the black Score and the petrol blue Shields in my little collection of Canadian jackets from that era. May need a wash (yellow is not easy to keep clean) but otherwise in great shape.

 

[handymike]

Looks great!

Nice score @Will Zach! Great fit and colour.
