What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

40s Windward. Grail jacket to me.

I looked at your instagram. Your build is very similar to my build. If this is not a secret then write your height and weight please. I'll be very grateful.

That's one of the reasons I've started the Instagram profile. So that people can compare different fits from different makers (something that I found quite challenging when buying my first leather jackets).

I'm 5'11 175 lbs / 1,80m 79 kg

This is the hardest task for me at the moment. I haven't had leather jackets since the last century. I only prefer five brands of ordinary clothes just because I am sure they are fully compatible with my complexion. Your and my complexions/figures are the standard for all European clothing of the 80s of the last century. But nowadays this is a very uncomfortable build for most clothes.
The height and weight I had for 20 years is the same as yours. I am now 5 kilograms heavier.
Thanks again for the invaluable jacket comparisons. And good luck.

Here's my 50's half belt in Jerky HH. The grain is popping after shovelling and roof raking in a snow storm.

Casual Friday before a full week off. 28 degrees. Windward.

What kind of jacket is it and what kind of leather is it?
excellent silhouette.

Not today but Christmas Eve. The courier delivered this late on Thursday. Field Leathers hybrid jacket in black Pony. Greg delivered big-time. Fit is spot-on (I told him, I needed room to layer a shirt/jumper), and all the details are perfectly executed. Leather is absolutely beautiful although I was quite surprised how soft it is straight out of the box.

I have only one issue: this is very similar to my brand new Addict, so I don’t really know what to pick as my daily wearer. It’s also similar to my still relatively new Aero OHerc in Badalassi. I need to stop buying for now…

1950’s Horsehide Windward (Montgomery Wards) long Halfbelt.

 

[ton312]

Wearing this polo wool Halfbelt quite a bit. Just today, I find myself irritated the SJC still hasn’t shipped, nearly a month past it’s due date.

 

[Tom71]

Congratulations. Top.

Thank you, Karsten! Really happy about the fit. It doesn’t look that way, but I do have much more room than with the Addict. I suspect the soft leather makes it very easy to wear.

Thanks! I will take that one to heart. Otherwise the best is always the next one…

 

[Tom71]

Thanks, Tony. Much appreciated! I hope, I get some real wear into this before long. I guess, the shine (as much as I love it) will get knocked off relatively easy, and the leather will develop in no time.

Thinner CXL for warm afternoon.
