What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Peter Mackin]

Changeable weather today, alternated between two aeros,A2 made by Edith and a midweight horsehide halfbelt ,that's buttery soft, made by Janet.

I’m a licensed ship captain and this is one of my “work” jackets: early 1980’s vintage Avirex G-1 with the nicest, grainiest goatskin imaginable! Added an Acme Thunderer whistle and an anchor shaped zip puller. Anchors aweigh!

Thanks. I just ordered a regular size 42 Sheene and put 'with 50s highwayman details' in the notes section.
I also asked for a Highwayman Label, but Aero shot that one down, and I respected that.
So I guess it is still just a Sheene, with custom design features.
The back is a complete new pattern as far as I can tell when compared to my Aero CR, no neck hang issue. I will post some compare photos in that Sheene-Man thread soon.

Big shout out to Julie! She knows what shes doing and is the best.

That seems like big news, no neck-hang issue. Any idea why, or if this new pattern might be making it's way to other patterns?

Jacket season finally arriving Down Under, hooray!!

Vanson Gambler in CW brown cowhide.
Weights like lead, wears like a feather. I have no idea how Vanson does it, but their patterns are the comfiest of all by a long margin.

I love the jacket and own one myself but the "Ramones fit" isn't really a thing. Sleeves just looked shorter on Joey because he was 6'6 wearing regular length jackets.

But congrats on the buy! I love those.

Weather is warming up so an RRL herringbone cotton shirt jacket is getting some wear.

It's seems jacket weather is pretty much gone for me.

I can wear my work jacket, or wear a jacket for a bit on my days off when taking the pup for her morning walk but that's about it.

Heavy rain this morning, so its Gibson And Barnes A2 for dog walking duties,water runs off due to pigment finish horsehide, great fit and workmanship, cheap and cheerful,I tried to sell this 5years ago for £100 ,so glad no takers,typical g&b ,fits much bigger than tag size.

Beautiful jacket!

There’s nothing nicer than a trucker jacket. IMHO, Iron Heart is the king of the mountain when it comes to fit and construction.

BTW,
If anyone is interested, my friend Jimmy and I had a lovely conversation about this American icon “the trucker jacket” on our channel.
