What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[oneterrifichog]

Nope. Not a special request. Leilah puts em standard on the Rugged Rider 2.0s. It's a game changer.

They do make a difference. I had an FXRG Harley jacket for serious riding for several years and the 2 way Zip was really nice especially after stopping for a good lunch and getting back on the bike. Not so tight around the mid section... Now for more traditional jackets I wouldn't want it as it sort of takes away from the look in my opinion.

I finally found a vintage suede that I like the fit on. The sleeves could be a inch or two shorter but I still like it.

There are been a couple Schott P213's lately... I have the black also, very nice for when you want a biker look with less of the belt/extra pockets/etc of my 618HH. Too cold for a P213? Pfffffffftttttt never... you just need more layers and stubbornness
But seriously a good hoodie helps it IS a thin jacket

Will Clurman put one on if you request? I’ve never asked. I know his zipper replacement is first class.

Slippery slope, Ton! I bought a machine to make moto seat covers.. now I have 3 machines for jackets and have yet to make a seat cover with any of them! I bet that angel skin is lovely to sew. Looks good!

No chance I could make a jacket but I am tired of paying the tailor for stuff I always think I could do myself!

I’ve never asked but my guess is no.
I’ve used great leather before and have been very happy with the results. About a 6 week lead time but its 20f here so it only prevents me from wearing on the couch

The Schott P213 is an underrated jacket. I purchased a lot of jackets in 2024 and moved on most. None were as comfortable as the P213 - it stays in the collection.

I think you got something going there with the jacket + scarf combo. Looks quite snazzy!

He would, but depends on what zipper you want to get and what he has available. He won’t do just any zipper you send his way.

His guy can definitely get it done.

Got this Vietnam era G-1 today at a Bangkok vintage market. Luckily the weather even allowed me to wear it around a bit.

Still learning how to take full torso selfies (I'm used to head shots over on the hat side).

Good jacket. No tag inside. The wrist knits are raggedy but functional, everything else is a go on this classic. Couldn't complain about the price, either.

Wore my personal grail piece, extra heavy Schott 70’s era suede rancher this am. This could (should) be my exit jacket.

I finally bit the bullet and took the tags off of this NOS key saddle king I received off EBAY last week.

I quite like the cut of the torso, but am not in love with the sleeves being so wide and baggy at the upper arm.

I wasn't sure whether I was going to keep or resell it, ultimately I came to the conclusion that the big upper arms were unlikely to be desirable and that for the $50 I payed I should just keep it.
