What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

I think though you have to be careful with the leg length in the sense that is better to have them on the short side and allow no break at all. Otherwise I find they ruin the look of every shoe/boot you wear. Baggy and slightly too long and you definitely risk to look like a grandpa in my opinion.

To each his own but I think that a mid rise with a moderately tapered leg is the way to go for most people.

You're absolutely right about the length. My khakis and flannels I've had hemmed at about half an inch above my shoes, but the jeans I just roll up to whatever I feel like that day. As you say, "To each his own." A funny sort of situation developed in my department last year, though. We had a temporary chairman who was in his fifties, was about 5'5", and had a huge beer-gut. His big thing was that he was an ex-hippie (he didn't know who Robert Crumb was, though), and he refused to wear anything but tight t-shirts and skinny jeans. He always reminded me of some kind of weird little Christmas elf. Skinny jeans on guys over fifty?

Wearing my new Cal Leathers LAPD jacket that I just acquired from fellow lounger ksozay:

This is a heavy horsehide jacket that dates back to the 60's. It is in superb condition and it fits like a glove. I have wanted a Cal LAPD for some time now and I am very greatful to ksozay for making it happen.

Pleasure working with you EM! Great fit and happy to see it go to a good home!

Chipped ice all afternoon yesterday to clear space for 10 inches that landed today. Viet Nam era N3-B Parka.

What i wouldn't give for that jacket and a peek of sunshine right now!

 

[nick123]

It’s not even the sun. It’s that beautiful country @A-1 ! You even have a goat back there!

Question...looking on the DD site at the J-21. Dave writes or inserts the slogan “Buco...say it like Beautiful”..

So is it actually pronounced B”eau”co?

Nah, it’s not a goat, haha. It’s one of my dogs.
And I guess it’s pronounced like you say it. Not “Booco” but “Beauco”.

Looks like Northern Iowa is only going to get around 8 inches over the next 24 hours. Shoot, was hoping for a real snow.

Regarding animals, I have the priviledge of passing by horses, cattle, sheep, goats, chickens, lamas and occasionally an eagle or two as I drive to work. I also see more deer than I can count on a weekly basis. Nick, it's time to head out of LA there, friend!

Come on out boys!
We have been experiencing unseasonably warm weather here in the Bay Area for about a week now. It is 73 degrees at the moment!
