Awesome. Great pic.

My boy has a x zip and CR. Neither as nice as the Branded. Love it when he picks them out of the closet to wear.
Yeah, he asked to wear to school for the first time one day this past week. When he came home from school he told me about all the kids noticing/asking about it. Proud dad moment for sure!

It's a little big at a kids 6 but it gives him room to layer and grow into. If I get 18-24mo out of it I'll be ecstatic. It popped up on the Finds & Deals thread but I had already been watching it for a couple days. Snagged it for the opening bid, so $25 well spent. Assuming it stays in good condition I'll pay it forward here and pass on for cost of shipping.

I overheard him telling his mom a few weeks back that “he wants the leather jacket to look like daddy, your kochanie.” I went to work with my chest puffed up for sure.

Hey J. I call dibs on the boy’s jacket for Willow. I almost bid on it but she’s too small. Maybe we can keep it going around the Lounge family forever.

I picked up a Gold/Black label Brooks that almost looks like NOS. It is quite clean, showing very little wear, and even the hardware is still quite shiny. With all the swimming I've been doing it is a bit loose, but I like light and loose jackets for hotter climates. The leather is quite thin but shows some great grain, has a nice hand, and drapes well.

Went for a late swim on a cloudy rainy day and was glad I had a leather jacket on the beach. LOL

great idea. My friends and I did that with a small bike that was only good for about 1 year max. Passed it around to at least 6 or 7 kids before everyone got too big for it.

Well, a deer sideswiped my bike and I flew about 50 feet. Nothing I could do. I made eye contact as it tried to jump past me as I was swerving. The deer ended up under my bike mangled. RIP. About a year old buck. My LW J23 hardly has a scratch. I’m a true believer now. It’s crazy. I’ve got bruises on my body but the jacket looks the same lol. Damn deer. My bike is probably totaled though. LW hides all the way if ya ride folks.

Deer don’t give a damn, that’s for sure
