Old Man and the Sea...

Spencer Tracy version? (one of my all time favourites)
Not seen the Quinn one, but I bet that's pretty good too.

Rocking my new favorite today! Thedi Hektor crosszip in Cuoio buffalo. I ended up with this one courtesy of the rabbit hole that is this forum. I used to think I knew a thing or two about jackets, but that was before I came here!

Gosh… another rainy weekend. My Kapital jacket is keeping me in check.

You guys probably already know this trick… wearing a trucker cap keeps the rain specks off your glasses! View attachment 479180

Great outfit man. Those boots are especially cool!

Kinda grey and foggy but not too cold. Good day for a waxed cotton jacket. An M-65 liner makes all the difference.

Nice one! What brand is it?

Gustin waxed field jacket. I re-waxed it myself and it really improved both the appearance and functionality.

I thought the LW J24 was all bedazzled?

Unknown maker jacket today. I’ve been waiting patiently for this one to come back from alterations.. It received a new flannel lining and got some stitching repaired. I’m generally a black jacket kinda guy, but I’ve been chasing a brown jacket that “works” for a long time. Been though several, but never seem to choose just the right one. Well, this one chose me and I feel like it happens to be the one. Thank you to @ton312 for sending this one over to me out of nowhere! My other brown jackets are in serious danger of being moved on, as this is the one that will see the wear.

Great color, style and fit! Enjoy

This jacket's beauty lies in its warm and subdued but high quality leather and in its clean lines and understated simplicity. The length is just right for your build and it drapes well off your shoulders both back and front. Looks like a great match of garment and owner! Enjoy.

Yessir. It’s the LW J23.

Thank you. And I did. Quick 100 miles in the Hills outside of Austin. Sunny and cool. Perfect.

It’s beautiful

Yeah, LW is my favorite maker. By far. IMO they are as functional as Vanson and Bates, as beautifully stitched and put together as Thedi and FW, and as visually appealing as anything else out there. I’ve seen you in the elements with your LW. Like yours mine have been in snow, torrential tropical rains, miles and miles of wind, sun, bug spatter and, grit and rocks peppering them on the bike. This J23 even took a kung fu kick from Bambi that sent me onto the pavement. Both I and the jacket were good to go. I really should just focus on buying more LWs.

I coveted the Suburban for years and finally pulled the trigger to reward myself for a long awaited personal achievement.
Compared to some others on this forum my collection is very small, but all of my jackets are new to me and what was probably the last missing piece was a LW black HH jacket. I have two other LW jackets. A black Buffalo Downtown that I bought new in 2001 as a discontinued sale item, and a russet HH “commercial flight jacket” which I bought in 2006 as a sale item. Both are amazing. The Suburban was very likely my last leather jacket, although my wife told me I need a shearling … so who am I to argue?

Thank you brother!
