What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[ChewingWax]

About shorts, I would always respect the dress code first. If the restaurant or event have a certain dress code I would always follow that.
Vancouver is a very relaxed place, and now is the rare 2 months of nice sunshine, so I’m gonna try to wear as much shorts as possible to get some tan on me, but never at a place or event where I’d be the only one wearing shorts.

Shorts for vitamin D. Doctor’s orders.

I think Lemmy had the right idea. if you're going to do it, you may as well go all the way up View attachment 617906

Lemmy gets a break of course. It’s Lemmy.

But damn. He does look comfortable tho.

We need the Australians to save this thread before it turns into "What shorts are you wearing today?"

I recall a thread out there with some posts that may be of interest to you. Short shorts and some closeups to help the imagination. I refuse to look for it. Haha.

After seeing Lemmy, I think I got my fill for the day...
Off to listen to some overkill in the meantime

What’s not to love about that fit? Looks exactly like it should.

Dug out my old Lightning. Was thinking about sizing up, so it didn’t get much wear lately. With the recent price surge, I can’t be bothered to buy new, so this will be a T-Shirt jacket.

Still my favourite Cross-Zip bar none, and even the standard horsehide on this is very beautiful (old batch). Very reminiscent of my Schott 613SH in temper and looks. Not quite as „luxurious“, though.

Second picture is a shout out to all the aging Metalheads out there.

Jesus that draw on the left panels

Bought it 2d-hand and it seemed close to unworn. I suspect all the front panels will eventually end up like that. It’s a great vest for sure.

Nice... you're right, can already see it peeking through. Enjoy!

Recent pickup from the forums:

Rainbow country Ponyboy- I think the fit is pretty spot on

damn that's nice love the green. would love a full trucker in that.

stuart has continued to step up the workmanship and the leather quality.

the other panels wont necessarily be like that. youll get more grain and creasing, but those wide horizontal striations are a fundamental part of the leather, not something that pops up over time.
